One of the sickest thing I've ever heard in all my life

"A San Antonio entrepreneur recently created an uproar with a Web site, http://www.live-shot.com , that aims to allow hunters to shoot exotic game animals or feral pigs on his private hunting ranch by remote control, with the click of a mouse, from anywhere in the world."

This turns my stomach.

What makes me more ill, is the fact I probably just drove his web traffic up 10000%.

Hell yeah! I can sit on my ass, kill me a pig, they can gut it, freeze it, vacuum bag it and I have pork products for the next six months!

Mmmm bacon tastes good, pork chops taste good.

Given the mentality, they probably just throw the carcass in a trash pit to rot.

Read the site, it says you can shoot animals for $150, and $60 to get the meat sent to you. Or it can be donated or something. Either way it doesn't go to waste.

The low prices are just for shooting targets. From the video, it looks like they would have to adjust the sites a little better if they want me to shoot.

edit: basically it costs like $400 dollars to kill an animal altogether, and it isnt some redneck running it, its a big ranch with visitors and stuff

They had him on The Daily Show. Was pretty funny. He claimed that he wanted to help disabled people feel the joy of hunting.

Wonder how this would be covered in relation to gun licenses? Surely you have to have a license to shoot.. yet, being in another country. Wonder if you would be held liable if you shot him with the thing remotely.

It says it has a person watching over the whole process of shooting and can override it at anytime. Unless someone haxord it hehe

It's probably got a hard cutoff though

ranch hunting is gay.

seriously, who the fuck gets a kick out of hunting animals in an enclosed area?

Post by **shadd_.** » Fri Mar 04, 2005 9:15 pm

hehe, i'll admit the idea is kinda cool but ranch hunting in general just seems wrong.

Can you straffle a bit to intimidate the animal first?
