Okay, now I am confused!! I came over here to say that I felt the same way as you in reference to the post that I quoted below, but then I find this BIGFOOTITSWHATSFORDINNER crap and have to wonder where you truly stand on the pro-kill issue!! Dave Holley in the 8/26/08 show that I've loosely quoted here. "we're a pro-kill group but we're not just a buncha rednecks going off into the woods with guns" Firstly, I never really much understood the whole "pro-kill" angle here.... is proving the existance of bigfoot really such an important issue that folks are willing to kill one just so that we can learn more about it??? Seems kinda selfish to me, I've heard said so often that the main reason we wish to prove it's existance is to establish plans to protect it's species.... Yet the first thing we're wanting to do is KILL one?!?! So many 'wittnesses' claim these animals are very human-like and intelligent.... If that's the case, could you imagine how this would affect a family unit??? How would you like it if someone were to kill a member of your family to prove the existance of humans???? How do you think this would disrupt your life??? Same arguments can be used against "live capture", because you're still removing an individual from it's natural environment, and then going even further to subject that individual to torture in the name of "science"..... Seems to me that bigfoot would be alot better off if we weren't looking for him..... How can we say that we're trying to "preserve nature" when we're not even willing to respect it???? Secondly, perhaps you're not a buncha rednecks going off into the woods with guns, but some of your statements certainly present that image, and hearing these things from this organizations leader would definatly cause me to think twice before I ever associated myself with this group. "you'd have to be crazy to take a group of people deep into the woods unarmed" Absoloutly, it only makes good sense for a member or two of the group to be armed to ensure the safety and security of the expedition group... but when wer're talking about a group who openly claim to be "pro-kill" and have instructions to kill a large hairy homonid.... I think I'd be more concerned with my own safety within the group if I happened to wander away to take a piss, only to come back and catch a bullet because I was mistaken for bigfoot! "with 2.5 million dollars I can lay you a genuine bigfoot body on the table" "we were told to drive bigfoot thier way" "looks like a great big ol' monkey to me" "why I let a big ol' monkey do that to my son" "there's our monkey" "I'm carrying a 12guage sawed off and a flaregun, I'll blow it's head off" Big ol' monkey??? Drive bigfoot thier way??? Blow it's head off???? These words do not present the image of a serious reasearch organization, if mainstream media ever got wind of this, your organisation would be a laughing stock, I just can't see any serious indivduals willing to give your group a chance based on these statements.... no offense, but this sounds like something we might have expected to hear coming from the mouths of the Georgia boys
