Hunter Randy Goodman got what he deserved. Does anyone else hate the Hunting Channel where hunters discuss techniques and actually kill animals on camera? When will the Fairness Doctrine be re-instituted? How about a show of hunters getting wounded by the animals they attempt to kill.
From The Rockmountainnews.com by the AP
SEDALIA, MO. — A Sedalia hunter bagged a big buck on the second day of firearms season, but the kill caused him a lot of pain.
Forty-nine-year-old Randy Goodman said he thought two well-placed shots with his .270-caliber rifle had killed the buck on Nov. 19. Goodman said the deer looked dead to him, but seconds later the nine-point, 240-pound animal came to life.
The buck rose up, knocked Goodman down and attacked him with his antlers in what the veteran hunter called "15 seconds of hell." The deer ran a short distance and went down, and died after Goodman fired two more shots.
Soon Goodman started feeling dizzy and noticed his vest was soaked in blood.
So he reached his truck and drove to a hospital, where he received seven staples in his scalp and was treated for a slight concussion and bruises.

Here's a template for a petition to the Network execs:
Dear Network Executive,
I would watch any TV show that features hunters being killed by their prey, accidentally killing themselves or killed by other hunters (accidentally or otherwise).
Most Sincerely,
If I knew which Network to contact I would have done it long ago and continue to harass them daily. Thanks for leaving a comment, Wally.

That gives me an idea.
I'll get back to you as soon as it finishes hatching.
Stay tuned, Hunter-Haters.
Stay tuned.
Bonnie,
Here's my thought about that hunting show...

Well thank you Wally very very much. My stepdaughter Lucien owns Sprunky, the kitty in lights. I kind of object to being called an old hippy in your column. I was never a hippy. At that period of time I was a very young mother and worked full time and became a fashion model on the side until I quit to pursue modeling full time. You could say cruelty to animals was crucial to why I lead the life I did because I ran away from my home with my grandparents who were cruel to animals in the extreme at 15 to marry my first real boyfriend.
Jumped from the frying pan right into a full raging fire which was over by my 18th birthday. My present husband said I dressed like a rich hippy which I certainly was not, just
have my own style. Thanks for the story on Daily Kos. Yes, I did love it. Bonnie
