grrrr wal-mart hunting video *RANT*
OK OK I know I have said it before, but darnit wal-mart is startin' ta really tick me off. The other night I was in the sportin' good section of the local wal-mart and there was a huntin' video playin' on the small TV on the checkout counter. These guys where blastin' away at antelope, and I MEAN blastin' away. There where three guys shootin' at a heard and talkin' about what great shots they where makin'. While I stood there I counted 18 shots at a heard of antelope. Two went down durin' the barage and these idiots are slappin' each other on the back talkin' about a great hunt! WHAT A CROCK! Here I wonder why soooo many anti-hunters are out there hate us then I see crapola like this playin' in the sportin' goods section! That ain't huntin' and it sure aint the way a hunter acts. The problem is all those people walkin' by don't know that. I turned off the TV as I left in disgust. The cashier (who was nowhere to be found the whole time) suddenly materializes and asks what I am doin', so me and him go round and round until a CSM shows up to find out what the trouble is. Well I let him know what the darned trouble was, the CSM didn't believe me so we switched the thing back on and he rewound the tape and watched it himself. After about ten minutes he shrugs and informs me that there shouldn't be a problem because thats the way hunters hunt! Well we went round and round again until they paged the manager. At least he was more responsive (Apparently he hunts himself) and the tape was promptly yanked. It turns out that the tape is a demo tape for a huntin' series they don't even carry! They just wanted to see if hunters would be interested in the series! Well alot of hunters may not have said nuthin', but ya can bet yer sweet behind they know what my opinion is on the matter!
