Deer slaughtered in rehabilitation area by 'SWAT' team...

[justjoe]

Quis custodiet ipsos custodes? the answer is no-one is watching the jbt. How long will it take before a real outcry is raised about this type of behavior?

take this w/ a grain of salt because i am not going to be the one. but why call for a REAL OUTCRY?

instead of asking your internet buddies for a REAL OUTCRY, you go do something about it. to much talk and not enough walk (from a guy thats not going to walk this walk)

if you feel that strongly about it, what are YOU going to do about it?

This government has Chronic Wasting Disease. There is only one known cure.

amen

 

[Ronald]

sickening...

 

[Liberty Sanders]

He should have shot the damned wildlife officers and tested them for Terminal Goverment Arrogance Disease.

You can't do the test on live wildlife officers.

 

[HeadlessRoland]

Just another reminder that Goverment can MESS with you at ANY TIME.
Why? Because we put up with it. As a potential jury member I would not bother to even bring about a True Bill, much less convict him. If he killed everyone who showed up to kill his livestock I'm sure there'd still be a hung jury.

 

[Ragenarok007]

Man if they came to shoot my dog, there would be some shooting going on all right.

I don't believe deer can carry wood.

I think the entire thing is wonky at best. I,however, dont have any issues with the conservation officers (they were doing what they were ordered to do by court, and were fulfilling their job requirements).

I can think of a few other historic examples of people just following orders.

It looks like we meet again, Steve. I stated ordered BY COURT. So Im not sure what beef you could have... other than mention the seige in Idaho with Randy Weaver and the Branch Davidian incident.

 

[rambone]

First they came for the deer...
... but I didn't speak up because I wasn't a deer.

My beef is that it was a crappy thing to do and following orders is no excuse for anything. Ever. They are responsible every time they pull the trigger.

Only an individual can act. You are the only one responsible for your actions.

Oh, you mean those pesky annoyances when Goverment deliberately did its best to kill (and succeeded at killing) several dozen men women and children? Darn, that is annoying. If only there was some way to prevent their slaughter so that people wouldn't have valid points about being worried about Goverment officials trespassing and killing a man's livestock. Boy, the nerve of those Branch Davidians! And the Weavers, how dare they!

Are you serious?

So what if a 'court' orders it? Trespass is trespass, and you better be ready for some action if you're strutting around on another man's land killing his animals, Jack. You better be ready for some action.

 

[Disposable Heart]

Yeah, the problem is they can do it WITHOUT a court.

As for folks and following orders, how about the sickening fact that we idolize folks that were JUST FOLLOWING ORDERS and kill Americans coughPattoncough... (look up the Bonus Army, REAL interesting read...)

 

[Sigblaster]

From what were these deer "rehabilitating"? What was he going to do with them when they were "rehabilitated".

In what universe should it matter?

 

[Sigblaster]

This one. The one where we have plenty of nuisance animals already without people unnecessarily keeping and breeding them.

 

[Lex Concord]

I'm sorry, I meant in light of the actions taken.

Keep a few "extry" dogs (in your adequately fenced back yard) and expect the SWAT team to come a-blastin'?

Nuisciance or not, the actions are not justified. Court or no, the gentleman was apparently deprived of private property without due process.

Again I ask, in what universe should it matter from what he may or may not have been rehabilitating the fallow deer?
