Just putting it out there that if people didn't hunt white tail deer in the US there would be a terrible overpopulation that would negaively effect the ecosystem.

False. The US Government artificially inflates the deer population so that hunters will feel good about themselves. If we stopped hunting, we'd stop inflating the population. It would stabilise.

That's the last thing I'm going to say in this thread.

I just don't get why they had a Jackal variant that's stronger and faster than Elites, and then outfitted them with the shittest possible Covenant weapons.

Which Jackals are you talking about?

Only a few frames look decent.

Yeah, I will admit that some of them are acquired tastes...

My favourite ATM are Loki, Excalibur and Rhino. Rhino is not available for me though because I just started, and Excalibur is a noob's choice. Loki seems like it's going to be my main.

The Flood / Looking for help with a custom avatar.
« on: July 29, 2015, 09:26:38 PM »
Well, as you can see, I'm currently using Solid Snake's Codec avatar from MGS1.



Now, I was hoping someone could help me out in this area. I recently found a Naked Snake (MGS3) version of my avatar, but it looks a little off and it's not animated.



See how it has the facial hair, mullet and slightly different garments? That's essentially what I would like in my avatar.

Also, if you could add an eye-patch on the right eye, that would be great.

Anyone lend me a hand?

Remember that you people are the ones advocating the abolition of hunting on the basis that it harms animals, which I then asserted that it is a less painful demise than they would otherwise undergo.

Which you can't quantify. Sure, they may die more painfully, but that doesn't mean we get to fucking shoot them. A person born poor in Africa is probably going to die painfully, do I get to shoot them?


Quote
Hunting already serves other purposes as well, hunters make the state a shit load of money, hunting entertains people, hunting gets people some good meat

NONE of which make it okay. The Hunger Games entertained people, doesn't make them okay (fictional, I know. Proves my point.) People can be entertained by other means and can get meat in other ways (that aren't any more ethical). I don't give a shit if you're making tons of money off of the murder of animals, that's arguably even worse.


Quote
it helps stabilize the ecosystem

No it fucking doesn't. The ecosystem is artificially inflated to support these hunters.

You have to prove the the instructor that you have the knowledge and the capabilities to achieve a 1 shot kill with alot of different variables acting against you.

I sincerely doubt you have to execute a 1-shot-kill. I'm sure you have to hit the target, but a 1-shot-kill? Doubtful. Of course, provide me with evidence to the contrary and I'll concede.

Vegan eh are you aware in the long run that going to take alot years off your life.

Not necessarily. I can live longer than you as a vegan, as it's a healthier lifestyle if done right.

Not saying I am healthier than you, but that's doesn't matter to me. I don't care about my health, I care about doing the right thing.

Again, I possess a conscience.
Get the fuck over yourself.

What does that even mean.

Like, yeah, I consider myself morally superior to you if you hunt for no good reason. I would also consider myself morally superior to a rapist or a serial killer, as most people would.

uh no, environmental influences can lead to increases in population. for example: a wet year that fostsers a large food supply leads to a low mortality rate for first year fawns, the following year, there is a harsh winter that kills a large amount of crop. The excess population then is reduced by deaths by starvation as their is not enough crop to support both the excess from last year and this year's newborns.

So you're solution is simply to pretend that it's okay to kill these animals because "well, they're going to die anyway!"

Surely you see the folly in that.

Quote
how do you pretend to know ecological systems if you think that populations ever remain at an equilibrium.

I don't think that. I'm simply saying that nature would return to how it was before we got involved. Yeah, nature is fucked. Not much we can do about it. Especially when we artificially increase population size to appease these hunters and increase revenue.

Like, let's not pretend people hunt for the sake of the animals. They do it because they want to, that's all.

You obviously suck at hunting IRL.

That's because I don't hunt IRL. Again, I possess a conscience.


Quote
It is a insta kill if you know where the fucking shoot.

Sure, but I doubt you hit that mark even 5 times out of 10. And even if you did, it still wouldn't make it ethical.

Quote
I am saying you probably have sniping experience from COD.

I know what the fuck you're saying. Not only is it baseless, it's also fucking wrong.

Quote
You're just talking out of you ass on a subject you no shit all about.

Yeah, I know nothing about hunting or animal welfare. That's why I'm a vegan, because I don't know what I'm talking about.

Like, do you honestly think I would change my entire life if I wasn't 100% convinced that what you're doing is fucking wrong? It's not a sport, it's not a pastime -- it's fucking murder masquerading as a hobby. You're not cool, or tough. You're a fucking coward.

And even then, if we didn't hunt, we would also stop artificially increasing the population. It would balance out.

Reminder that starving to death isn't more pleasant than being shot.

Obviously.

But hunters aren't shooting the animals that are starving to death, they're shooting the ones that are big, that would look nice on their wall, that have the most meat.
Yeah, the ones that consume more than others. But that doesn't change that if we didn't hunt, deer would starve in troves.

Until, you know, the population stabilises. It wouldn't be an issue if we didn't hunt in the first place.

Un my rifle is good up to 3/4 of a mile or 1.2 km/h. My scope is very high with a 16 magnification zoom.  I am shooting no more then at 200 yards at most and while stationary lying down and breath controls my shot go where I am them to go.  .303 rifle round has enough punch to kill the target.

Who gives a shit? It's still not an instant kill, I guarantee it.

Like, you realise how precise you have to be to euthanise an animal, right?

Quote
You may have sniping experiences from a *video game* but in the real world it's alot more accurate depending on hunter experience. I will openly admit not all 100% of my shots are bull eye.

Are you fucking high.

It's far more difficult to snipe in real life. I've done it before, I would know.

That jab at my credibility isn't fooling anyone.

It does make it ok. Animals eat each other. The food chain.

Last time I checked, we're smarter than every other animal on the planet. Which means we are capable of making smarter and more rational decisions. Simply saying "It's natural, that makes it okay!" is completely fallacious.

Quote
Nature does not do it own thing. Do u really want thousand of raccoon running around your yard.

Except if you had any idea of how nature actually works, you'd know that wouldn't happen. Or at least, wouldn't stay that way for long.

Nature has a way of balancing itself out. If that wasn't the case, how do you explain every ecosystem ever before we came along? There's 3 billion years worth of natural harmony to look back upon before we interfered with our hunting shit.
