Nikki and Damian...
It's a rare occasion I get involved in these discussions but
because this is a subject I have strong opinions about I am going to do just that.

First off, you post on a public board something that in YOUR opinion is ok. But yet when someone else posts THEIR opinion you attack them...
Don't post something on a public board if you can't take someone disagreeing with you. Everyone here has the right to their own thoughts, not just you.
You�re out of line.

Second, I don't think anyone here would disagree that hogs can be a destructive nuisance that needs to be controlled. I also doubt anyone would hold it against you for putting food on the table.
But...
Lets be real blunt here, this is not an issue of working dogs which you�re trying to make the subject to be. This is an issue of you torturing an animal for sport which is exactly what it is. Regardless of your wording, justification or excuses your talking points intentionally and conveniently talk around the real issue.
Plainly put, the only ones buying into this bullshit your spewing here is you.
Just because your actions do have some positive benefits, the ends do not justify the means.
As John said, put a bullet in it and be done with it. Period!
If you�re going to do it and post about it, then don't hide behind calling it something
other then what it is.
