Travis,Jesus... I'll start by answering #3 first.... I have used a trail camera. I typically buy new batteries for my camera and then let it sit until the batteries go bad. This year I found a trail camera and pulled the card, read the pictures and put the card back. I did see one really nice yearling 2-point. Real nice buck. I bet he was murdalized by that trail cam. damn... what a shame. My trail camera has caught more people wandering through my camp than deer or elk on the mountain. I understand that the point of you asking me this question was to catch me up in being selfish or maybe intellectually dishonest, but you have failed. Read on for your next set of internet armchair failures...
In response to question #1: No. No it does not. I really don't understand how you don't understand how cameras work. I hope by the time this settles that you'll maybe google a bit of information on cameras and see that they take pictures.
In response to #2.... No, using a trail camera during season does not give a guy an advantage during the season.
Now, In response to my response, since you don't like my prior arguments and factually based points... you may only reply using consonants. You may actually only reply using facts. You need to prove to me, in order to ever change my mind, in these two areas:
1- more deer are killed and those kills are directly related to the aid of a trail camera (I don't see how this can be proven since cameras don't operate weapons.... but I digress)
2- Those deaths directly related to the use of a trail camera have substantial negative impact on the deer herd in general.
I'd try and write out a list of things you're unable to use in response but I'm not one to tie another's hand behind his back during a valid discussion, unlike you.
All I have done is call out the hypocrisy of those who would support the measure. Their nasty lady claws have come out in full strength. Rarrr. You are a hypocrite for supporting the banning of a camera that literally does nothing to kill an animal while you run around with modern day weapons and call yourself a hunter. I took a picture through my spotting scope at an elk that was more than two miles away. I turned myself into fish and game for killing that elk with a picture so you didn't have to.
Until you use sticks and rocks to kill your way up the food chain and obtain only natural resources to fashion spears and bows you will be a hypocrite. I know this is hard for you to swallow so drink some water after reading this and cool off, calm down, it will be okay.
Lastly, arguing on the internet is fun, but please don't ne the guy that tries to date me in PM's. Nobody likes him and I'm not into dudes.
I’ll give you credit for two things. First, you answered my questions and second, you actually made me laugh. Thank you. We’ll leave it to those who care to read your answers to decide for themselves how good they are and who might need to cool down a bit.
I have no desire to change your mind or to prove anything to you. It wasn’t my intent. That said, you may want to give my post a quick re-read to make sure you understand the reasoning and examples I offered to support my point of view. In particular, look closely at this sentence: “Everyone knows a trail camera can’t physically kill a buck.”
If you’re actually interested in an honest, productive dialogue with someone, online or in person, you may want to reconsider your communication approach. Your propensity toward name calling, unfounded accusations, baseless claims, and personal attacks aren’t usually very helpful. You’ll do better if you treat others better... just sayin.
Finally, I’m not exactly sure what Jesus has to do with any of this, but I’ll leave that to you, Him, and your mirror...
