Homeless veterans are a group that you don't hear much about in the news or anywhere else, for that matter, but deserve our help. If you are in the area, and have the time, please consider attending this event. They have a great range and it should be a good time...all for a good cause.

Well, since you asked...
In Michigan there is a program where you can donate your deer to feed the homeless:

So, at least in Michigan, it is out there.
ha! Now there's a moral dilemma for PETA....
No dilemma for me.
I am a member of PETA: People Eating Tasty Animals...
I'll never forget my first hunting experience, it was in Michigan..conveniently enough.
My uncles took me camping up north, I forget where exactly. Half of the trip was camping, half of it was laying down some bear bait. Right next to our tent.
That's some heavy sh*t to lay on a 6 year old. Remember the bait...I think it was dog food and fast food grease from a Grand Haven Wendy's.
No bears showed up. But yeesh.
OK, making a couple of assumptions for age, I am guessing you went on your bear hunting trip sometime around my 2nd Class year at VMI.
One of many ridiculous subjects I thought about on the drive to Great Lakes (Chicago) tonight...

shoot guns, feed the homeless. I like it.
How about you guys go shoot animals and feed the homeless with fresh meat?
