[Baka Sama]

WTF?! Just like a red neck... "Look at that big pig.....KILL IT!!!!" What a waste, it would have been so much better if it was still alive"

Looks like that pig from Princess Mononoke

[mRclARK1]

What gets me is that it was hit, multiple times, with a .50 cal and still managed to stay on the run for 3 hours. Damn though... something that size a .50 cal isn't quite the stopping power it normally is. lol

[SiI40sx]

Looks like that pig from Princess Mononoke

lol thats what i thought of too!

[Baka Sama]

He said he shot the huge animal eight times with a .50-caliber revolver and chased it for three hours through hilly woods before finishing it off with a point-blank shot.

Fucking Moron.:fawk2:

[qwikspool]

man thats a whole lot of bacon. lol. yeah thats big.

[Irukandji]

Imagine how big it could've grown if an obese prepubescent boy didn't helplessly slaughter it for no reason whatsoever other than for the hell of it.

[C. Senor]

thats a huge effin pig.....how in the world do they even get that big. but yeah would have been like 50 billion times better if it were still alive....damn kids with 50 cal.......?????....what the hell is an 11 year old kid doing with a 50 cal.

[Baka Sama]

I mean seriously, you have to be pretty fucked up in the head to chase something down for 3 hours for no other reason besids to kill it for fun. And this wasnt something you were hunting. This is something you just stumbled on. And who gives their 11 year old kid a .50 to go outside and play with for hours..

At times like this me and my friends have a saying... "America~~~ Fuck Yeah!"

[mRclARK1]

^^^ I agree I would have left it alive. But I don't think they killed it just for the hell of it, they are planning to slaughter it, and probably sell a lot of the meat. Still... would have been better captured or just photographed and left alone.

Also, they were out hunting with a guide... the kid wasn't just running around with a .50 cal. haha

[C. Senor]

danm i gotta read more.....stupid teachers telling me to read more...i guess they were right.

[BustedS13]

....jesus christ.

[eastcoastS14]

thats fuckin crazy....I agree tho, should have been left alive. I think hunting is lame....I think if your gonna kill an animal you should have to do it with your bare hands...even the score

I think its crazy that a pig that big was just roaming the woods like that, if i saw an 11foot wild boar id probably shit myself

[Helghast]

That's what I'm thinking.

If that fucker wanders around my camp site, I think I'd quit.
Just give up.
Fuck, you can't fight something that BIG.

[adrians_s13]

Looks like that pig from Princess Mononoke

hahahaha... I thought the same too... dope movie..

sad tho, its not everyday you see something like that... leave it in the hands of a redneck to make sure its deader than dead

[s13gold]

filipino's like myself call that lechon....
hahaha

[Bryants95240sx]

Im waiting for the south jokes to start.

WTFFFFFFFFFFFFF

How does something like that go unnoticed? lol

[azndoc]

Damn that's a huge pig.

How does it grow to that size and never been seen before until now. That's nuts. I agree that they should've left it alone and caught to be looked at and did studies on how it got so big. Over a thousand pounds, damn...

I think that hunting is kinda lame too. Unless you actually live out in the middle of no where which you pretty much have to hunt to survive. But the people that get off on killing animals that can't defend themselves is lame. I say if you really want a rush then we'll send you off in the military where you get sent to combat zones and the hunted shoots back.

[mRclARK1]

^^^Agreed. haha +1 for you.

Prey that shoots back is a little tougher. :-/

[Phlip]

I agree, hunting simply for sport is among the lamest things one can do.
Hunting for food? Sheeit, fire away. Has anyone any idea of how old this animal was, what about gender? I am not able to think of one good reason to take off a huge male old pig, there is very little redeemable meat on such an animal. Not that I eat pork, but I digress.
Also, guide or none, I cannot come to any real reason why ANYONE would have a .50 to a fucking child, other than plain stupidity.

[SimpleS14]

The kid had access to a gun since he was five....that right there is quite disturbing as well...borderline trained to kill at a young age. That boar is really huge and I'm surprised something like that existed in the states. Can you imagine seeing that wonder onto a street and someone taking it out with their car (or truck)...that would be some serious damage.

[slothonaleash]

wild boars that weigh 100 pounds can easily kill a man actually...they are incredibly dangerous animals...that thing's like a pissed off elephant mixed with a pissed off bear...

i doubt that's what they were thinking when they killed it though.... it probably went something like "git eem boy git that boar... we's be eatin' tonight"

and the kid likes hunting pheasants...probably the most uneven thing to hunt.... you scare them, they fly up, and you take a few down with a shotgun

[BC240]

"Oh my god, that must be the biggest hog in the history of mankind!, We might never see one like it again for a million years"

[codyace]

Some replies in this post make me sick

TO THE ANIMAL LOVERS

WTF?! Just like a red neck... "Look at that big pig.....KILL IT!!!!" What a waste, it would have been so much better if it was still alive"

I mean seriously, you have to be pretty fucked up in the head to chase something down for 3 hours for no other reason besids to kill it for fun. And this wasnt something you were hunting.


Go join Peta. Who cares. Kid out hunting for fun with pops and others kills a giant pig. Humankind has been doing this for a long time (both for sport and survival) That Pig could have potentially terrorized other people if just running around wild without being killed.

Would you have all rather let the kid shoot the pig 4 times and let the pig go running around and possibly die of lead poisoning and or bone infection?

...It's not like he killed a Tiger or Pandabear or anything important.


And to those who are anti gun, uninformed about guns, or making crazy statements about guns

The kid had access to a gun since he was five....that right there is quite disturbing as well...borderline trained to kill at a young age.

Give me a freakin break. I almost fell out of my chair. Trained to kill?? Way to put a huge SPIN on something. I'm certain that 11 year old boy knows more about weapon control/safety/care than 90 percent of other weapon owners in this county. Just because he's young doesn't make him stupid.

Also, guide or none, I cannot come to any real reason why ANYONE would have a .50 to a fucking child, other than plain stupidity.

A 50 caliber does alot of damage (I've shot m2, and a Barrett overseas, and a desert eagle pistol at home), but harms/maims/kills someone jsut as effectivly as a 22 pistol. Again, who's to say he's unsafe when we have people in this country with home defense weaopns who have only ever put bullets in the magazine and left it in their nightstand drawar. I'd rather trust an 11 year old with training before the scared 44 year old woman who's goign to chase out robbers/similar.


This is something you just stumbled on. And who gives their 11 year old kid a .50 to go outside and play with for hours..

No where does it say he's out playing in the woods by himself. Again, nice spin on things.



I'm willing to bet that this 'kid' has better gun knowledge and care than most (as I said before) Who's to say he can't own a hunting weapon? Who's to judge him as incompetant just by a article you read online?


Gun control shouldn't be 100 percent aggressive control (get rid of all guns now), and isntead should be a steady mix of passive control (teaching/learning/classes) and aggressive control.




At times like this me and my friends have a saying... "America~~~ Fuck Yeah!"

Being sarcastic about America is one thing, but when you're uninformed about the subject matter, only you look silly. PS: If you think this is the ending of America, go visit the a third world coutnry sometime. People with guns will be the least of your problems.

[eastcoastS14]

^^ to everything you just said....what is the point?

what is the point of killing a large rare animal? endangered species or just some random animal...what gratification or satisfaction do you get from chasing it down and murdering it? Is it cool? does it make you feel like a man? hunting is gaaaay like i said if you wanna do it you should have to do it with your bare hands

whay is the point of giving a kid a .50 or training him to shoot? Yes its true that hes probably very safe, but why would you want to teach your child to kill anything? I guess im missing the point of how taking a life brings anyone satisfaction.....I say a life is a life, I for one love animals and would feel bad if i even hit a racoon with may car or something never mind track something through the woods to kill it, please explain in all seriousness what possible good can come out of giving a child a gun?

its retarded when people say shit like go join PETA...its not about that its senselessly killing defenseless animals for the fuck of it...shit the American buffalo is almost non existant because some of the first Americans that came to that part of the country nearly wiped them out for their skins....people in this world have a long history of killing animals for no reason and that doesnt make it right, humans have helped nearly wipe out so many species just so they could eat or wear them when both were a luxury not like they were starving or naked.

and as for the comment on 3rd world countries.....yeah we are not a 3rd world country, we are the United States of America, these hunters arent starving or killing to make a living, this kid killed so he could mount the damn head in his living room and make sausage with the rest....

so now what was a pretty amazing creature that lived in the woods in peace for many years and never hurt anyone is dead because some 11year old felt the need to take its life...its a sad waste

[delphis]

hunting something with a GUN IS NOT A SPORT! hunting with a bow is true sport, guns are for self defense against crazy fucks and are just fun. This isn't good teaching this fat little kid to kill an animal to feel better about himself because all of the other 8 kids in his school make fun of him doing any good but teaching him that to kill something is a way to make yourself feel better and also to gain your 10 minutes of fame. Hey he might go shoot up a school to get his 15 minutes of fame when he turns 22.

I am an animal lover but I do eat meat.
I also like guns but I don't condone the killing of animals for pleasure (unless it is with primitive weapons that actually give the animals a chance but even then but I still don't think it's right and I would never do it unless I had to eat)

I have had gun training since I was a kid, but I do not own a real gun (just airsoft)

if you feel the need to hunt something let your buddy run into the woods and then you try and track him and shoot him with airsoft but you don't get to have the ultimate redneck trophy.

but damn that is One huge pig, but wouldn't a photograph have sufficed?

[mRclARK1]

Come on guys... don't turn this into a gun control debate, and start throwing insults around etc. I just posted this cause I was amazed at the size of the thing, and thought it would be cool to share.

Whatever you think of hunting, gun control etc... the kid didn't break any laws, he was being supervised by adults, one of whom was his father, and it's his son to raise and teach the way he wants. Also, being taught to hunt is quite a way off from being trained to kill (assuming you're talking other human beings) ... that's a whole other "game"

I don't hunt personally, and I think it's a waste when it isn't required for food or population control etc.... but people who do it for sport, do so within the law, and do not waste the animal, but actually eat or sell the meat and fur etc. don't deserve to be insulted for doing something that is within their rights to do. :bow:

[Kuzumi]

i hate how everyone thinks that animals have rights. omg they are animals they kill eachother all the time. Sometimes they are killed to "prune" the population. Come up with a better reason not to then i will :D
agreed with above but for me i see it differently. animals are here for me to kill >:)

[Dorifto89]

...It's not like he killed a Tiger or Pandabear or anything important.


You are failing.

[Baka Sama]

To Mr. Codyance:

I am in a very good mood today! =) Other wise I would have no problem roasting your sorry ass. So instead, for your and Zilvia's well being I will just point out my own error. Right here where I said this:

And this wasnt something you were hunting. This is something you just stumbled on. And who gives their 11 year old kid a .50 to go outside and play with for hours..


...I was completly wrong and I should have read the whole story first before posting. I was corrected by mRclARK1 and I just left it at that. No need to go back and edit my post to appear to not have made a mistake.

Now I shall give you a chance to point out your mistakes here:
That Pig could have potentially terrorized other people if just running around wild without being killed.

...It's not like he killed a Tiger or Pandabear or anything important.


And here:
PS: If you think this is the ending of America, go visit the a third world coutnry sometime. People with guns will be the least of your problems.

Have a nice day sir, and I hope you are having fun on your 3 day weekend. :kiss:

[staygold24]

Good old bama... Im moving there soon.

If he would have had a camera I think shooting it that way would have been more productive, but people would still be skeptic.

I think the best way to deal with it would be a whole lot of tranquilizers.

[atom]

Meh, I'm not all torn up about it being killed. Do a search for "feral hogs" on google and read up. They are a nuisance and a threat to indigenous wildlife. I'm sure he's not the only giant hog out there.

[SochBAT]

Big animals are scary.

^^ to everything you just said....what is the point?

I never said I was for or against hunting (as I don't hunt at all, nor will ever...I don't have the patience for it)

The point? Certainly I can't help you for an answer, as I don't know. Let it be known that there are many things I question 'what the point' anymore...just fwiw though.

hunting is gaaaay like i said if you wanna do it you should have to do it with your bare hands

Interesting concept, but I can't think of any humane way to kill a beast of that size with bare hands (to include trap making).

whay is the point of giving a kid a .50 or training him to shoot? Yes its true that hes probably very safe, but why would you want to teach your child to kill anything? I guess im missing the point of how taking a life brings anyone satisfaction.....I say a life is a life, I for one love animals and would feel bad if i even hit a racoon with may car or something never mind track something through the woods to kill it,

After re-reading this a few times, I think I can understand your point of view, and that is why your opinion (and mine) are so. I never looked at hunting as in a black/white "kill kill" attitude before. I think this can be said for how I think about the subject, as well as how you think abuot the subject. When not thinking about it in such a literal sense, I don't see the harm in it.

please explain in all seriousness what possible good can come out of giving a child a gun?

Why not? We give 16 year old vehicals everyday without proper drivers training or instruction, and everyday we have 16 year olds dying or killing someone else in car accidents. You don't hear '11 year old with gun kills dad/mom' everyday do you? To me, that big car someone hands their 16 year old son or daughter is just as (actually more) dangerous than this kid with a high power pistol.

people in this world have a long history of killing animals for no reason and that doesnt make it right, humans have helped nearly wipe out so many species just so they could eat or wear them when both were a luxury not like they were starving or naked.

I totally agree, but my point was that this is a wild boar, not a truly exotic or important rare animal. Uncommon? Yes, but I view rare as being something that we don't have many of (Buffalos) not thousands of (boar)


I am in a very good mood today! =) Other wise I would have no problem roasting your sorry ass. So instead, for your and Zilvia's well being I will just point out my own error. Right here where I said this:

Roast away. I'm much like you, that once I log off, that's all the more I worry about a forum. I still am going to remain constant with my opinion: You put a spin on the information that only Bill O'Rielly himself could agree with. I never made fun of you in any instance, just made a point, so if you believe it requires and old fashioned new guy roasting, go ahead, I'll enjoy it.

No need to go back and edit my post to appear to not have made a mistake.

Nothing was aimed at you meliciously...just used your post as a point.

Have a nice day sir, and I hope you are having fun on your 3 day weekend. :kiss:

1.5 I work tomorrow and I worked half a day saturday loading Humvees on a JBL for Texas. As we can see, we both know an equal amount of each other, so we did EITHER of us assume about the other side.


Meh, I'm not all torn up about it being killed. Do a search for "feral hogs" on google and read up. They are a nuisance and a threat to indigenous wildlife. I'm sure he's not the only giant hog out there.

Thanks for the post. I personally know this, but many do not. Granted they aren't normally the size of the one in question here, but large wild hogs can raise some hell and pose as a serious threat to other animals/people.

[eastcoastS14]

fair enough...you are obviously entitled to your own opinion just like anyone else the only thing i wanted to respond to is this

Why not? We give 16 year old vehicals everyday without proper drivers training or instruction, and everyday we have 16 year olds dying or killing someone else in car accidents. You don't hear '11 year old with gun kills dad/mom' everyday do you? To me, that big car someone hands their 16 year old son or daughter is just as (actually more) dangerous than this kid with a high power pistol.

and without trying to turn this into a gun control debate which is really not what I want to do...I will respond by saying that yes many kids cause accidents and do harm with cars. However, the main purpose of a car is a mode of trasportation, car accidents are the result of misuse of a car...that is to say if you kill someone with a car you are clearly doing something wrong. However, A .50 is made for one thing and that is killing, and none of this self defense crap either cause you can defend yourself with any gun....a .50 is made to do serious damage, and so the example of the car doesnt really hold up because by giving a child .50 you are placing an object in their hand thats sole purose is to hurt or kill another living thing...

[C. Senor]

human nature is so funny. i love it. dont you think it's funny how that was a big ass boar that was taken down by a big ass hand gun?

[Ricks15]

Thats alot food right there:bigok:

[s14slide]

Alright, CodyAce I'm with you 100% bro. Those of you, eastcoast, have probably never hunted. Maybe those of you who despise hunting as much as you imply never eat meat. Maybe you think it's nicer to systematically kill animals for your McDonalds and Subway. Unless you are pure vegan, you have no say on animal rights on the subject of hunting. Maybe we should start killing male lions when they murder cubs that aren't their own. Animals are here to die for us to eat, not because they look cute or need to be studied. And for those who only eat vegetables, realize that at least a handfull of animals died when a farmer protecting his crops from vegetable eating animals, or him letting hunters onto his land which protects his crops.

let's compare....percentage of 16 year olds who drive in america: maybe 75 or so? something moderately close to 100 (at least in my area)

percentage of 16 year olds with direct access and allowed use of a fire arm: maybe one in 1000, probably less

if the percentage of teens who drive also shot guns, there'd be an all out outbreak of heinous killings/gun crimes

i personally am a vegetarian, but i do see some sense in this...as someone said, look up feral hogs... i remember i was vacationing in the outerbanks of north carolina, and we actually heard of a story of someone being maimed to the brink of death by a wild hog...you probably have a better chance of facing down a wolf than a wild pig

if this thing would have walked into a town, got spooked by all the commotion, it could have caused serious damage to people, property etc.

but this kid probably didn't care about that, he just wanted to kill something big to kill something big...which bothers me

Exactly my point. We don't walk around in uproar when kids in cars go out and kill people, we just let it happen daily. It sucks. I've seen alot of young people in my area killed this way. If we reacted to it, as much as we reacted about this kid witha .50 cal, it would possible reverse the trend. I'm not saying one is better than the other, but just making light of the comparison.

I still maintain, that for the amount of kids that have access to 50 cals, I'd like to know how many of killed people or done damage aside from targets/animals.


AND PS:

To whoever left me neutral feedback "for being a redneck peice of shit" without leaving your name: You're a coward. Why not just leave my negative rep to make your day better? Why not think about leaving your name next time.

And also PS: I live in Northeastern PA, on the Jersey border. I don't drive camaros, look at cousins suggestivly, hunt, etc etc...all things you probably think stereotypical 'rednecks' do. Let it be known that In my military experience, that the most honorable, loyal, and smartest 'in the the field' guys were all what most of what you would call 'rednecks'. Get out of your small town, off the computer, and experience life, before throwing the term around so loosly. Again, show your name, and make it negative. None of tha that half job neutral stuff.
