…about the fact that PETA kills more animals in one day than Matt Hughes has killed in his whole life.

by Steve4192 on Jan 4, 2012 1:27 PM EST up reply actions  

Really?

How? Legitimate question.

That shit cray.....

Since 1998 PETA has killed more than 17,000 animals, nearly 85 percent of all those it has rescued.

To be fair....

That’s like 3.5 a day. At that rate, it might take as much as a month to kill as many as Hughes has killed in his life.

your missing the point .... it's fucking PETA we are talking about...

It’s not the regional animal shelter… it’s fucking peta, these mofo’s go crazy about animal rights and have bank accounts pouring over with funding and that’s there solution to the problem…?

Seems more like good-natured “fighter prodding” to me. We all talk a little crap about certain fighters. I’m not sure where the line is, but I’m pretty sure hope I’m smart enough not to cross it.

I’ve got one you could take care of for me at home Matt…

I was like "awwww nice cat"

and then I read the caption and it was dead.

by UncleMax on Jan 4, 2012 12:56 PM EST reply actions  

Maybe it's just playing dead...

Hughes was probably just using the rifle to teach it a new trick.

haha, same thing happened to me. “Oh look, Matt Hughes has a heart……. oh…. you monster!”

So I assume Matt

received the BE Ban Hammer right? Posting pics of dead cats and all

I thought this was a photoshop when I saw it on Mania, guess not. Strange tweet to go with the picture, not sure what else to say about this. “Me and my brother love to shoot cats!” – WTF?

is showing some reverence for your prey too much to ask??

acknowledging it’s a unique and beautiful creature and using as much as the kill as you can (pelt, meat, etc.) is totally respectable. propping it up for a picture and saying “Me and my brother love to shoot cats!” is fucking sick.

Not just livestock. They also kill a lot of pets

Wipe out the livestock and pave over it all, farms are breeding grounds for pathogens and usually some kind of government hijinks.

Wait…

by Fastolph on Jan 4, 2012 5:21 PM EST up reply actions  

I really don’t think you understand. You need to go spend a month in the country to understand. In really rural areas there isn’t an animal control guy that comes and takes care of pest. You are the animal control guy. I can understand being mad at the guy for posting it, but don’t get mad at people for killing nuisance animals.

We have a wild boar problem in Louisiana. Some dumb guy brought over boars from Europe way back and they mated with the boars down here. Those boars can get up to 500lbs and more. They attack humans, pets and destroys farms. The Wild Life and Fisheries org has actually allows them to be hunted year round in an effort to control the problem.

that’s not a wild boar. Boar are a destructive and invasive species.
A bobcat is not. bobcats are an important part of the ecosystem, and their near-disappearance is a large part of the reason why coyotes are spreading everywhere, and coyotes are a legitimate problem for people.

this is horseshit. Chickens, maybe, pigs, highly unlikely.

Hunting is stupid if you don’t use the meat or the fur. At that point you’re just hunting to kill stuff.

Oh and PETA is horrible. The whole animal liberation front is bullshit really.

I think it's because Bobcats fuck up his livestock

’Ardy is a douchebag. He thinks calling out a glass jaw like Hughes is going to resurrect a career that should have been shit canned a while ago. He will get taken down and smashed like all the brits do when they face wrestlers.

by ClinchKing on Jan 4, 2012 9:48 PM EST via mobile up reply actions  

I wish Predator was real. Maybe it would see some old Matt Hughes footage and think he’s still the best. Then he could make a trophy out of Matt’s head. Yes that would be awesome. The things I fantasize about…

by J_Maddux on Jan 4, 2012 7:19 PM EST reply actions  

I would be shocked

If Hughes could educate anyone on something that wasn’t fighting or wrestling. Maybe mullet-growing.

BOOSH

LOL

The Hughes bros really should’ve kept those glorious mullets.

Could someone with more photoshop skills than me replace Hughes with Koscheck and the bobcat with Hughes, please? :)

This thread should be on Bloodyrag.com

Man up you pussies!

As long as a hunter is safe, responsible and with in the rules & regulations of the state he is hunting in, then there’s nothing left to say. You don’t like it then don’t hunt… You don’t wanna read about it the. Don’t click & read posts with obvious headlines of what’s pictured/ written with in the article….

BE needs more hunting & pro wrestling ;)
