    We don't purposely drop 1080 to control deer in NZ. That's a ridiculous claim. We do shoot them from helicopters though, been happening a wee while now. In fact it's the least amount of chopper pressure the deer have had in a long time. It's unfortunate when they clash with rec hunters but that's life. Doesn't make them assholes.

    I suppose its great we have a democracy and freedom of speech and thought, as in my book it does make them that!

    Just like politicians I suppose, one can be loved by some and hated by others.
