That's a beautiful thing. But where can you do that and not get arrested?

Air power....same as a Potatoe Cannon, says, Dan Quayle.

I doan see no discharge from a gun powdered weapon, do you?

I'm tired of cleaning up the trash knocked over by varmits I can't trap.

A kick in the ass will make them take a pass on my schmorgasbord.....I have an acre of land. Nothing goes off the property. I can do an IED if I want to, I just cant ask the AC to pick up the trash.....this is more fun, legal and less messy.

My 40 power scope allows me to do surgical vasectomies. They're aren't gonna die, they just won't reproduce......

SB is notoriously liberal and PETA-ized. Watch out that you don't get an onslaught of rich patchouli-scented do-gooders driving up in their Mercedes SUVs to perform a citizen's arrest on your ass.

Double "D"......


Dude.....you see a pic of a 911 cab owner (aka gay), who's an old grey haired, weasel with a tiny penis, can't afford a real gun, awake at 1:30am on a Saturday, with a 5 am deadline for an AX (masturbation, not real racing) and you are threatening me with PETA?

Get a real JOB, or come up and help me set up the farging course.

I'm out......taking a pill, setting the alarm.

Mike you are dong that all wrong.
Go to your local junk yard and get a couple of airbags.
plant then so the tops of the bags are even with the ground, put bait on top of the bags, run the wires up to your porch and wait. Can you say, redneck raccoon, space program?

Raccoons have been tearing up my lawn looks like 6 big golf swing divots every morning. Then they take the worms over to the pool and clean them. The muddy mess looks as if 5 dogs had an all night party around the pool and garden.
I just want to catch them and release them in an undeveloped area.

Do those anti-critter sound emitters work?
Is it difficult to trap raccoons?

We had a raccoon problem under our deck and the animal control people dropped off a live trap. They told us to put a Ho-Ho in there. We got a raccoon that night. I like Mike's idea much better. I have a skunk that keeps spraying my dog and I may follow suit. I think I'll watch Reservoir Dogs tho.

Good for you Mike....I had big problems with Racoons at my old house about 15 years ago - one even tried to bite me when I walked out onto the dark deck and didn't see it.

One night, I sat out with a .22 rifle. When 4 were on my deck, chewing my expensive door; I fired. One shot, one kill. The others never returned.......

Not difficult to trap them in a hav-a-hart trap at all. Cat food is great bait for them. I used to just pop 'em, which is legal here. I got tired of digging. Now I do the catch and release bit.

what model of pellet rifle is that?

i heard that there is an automatic water spray system that squirts them when they break a IR beam. i would shoot them with an arrow.

a huge raccoon once trapped my brother's very wimpy black lab. i had to shine a light at it, while my brother took it out with our bowfishing rig. we were on a boat marina, and the coon didnt let the swimming dog back up on the dock. we thought a coon could drown the dog, so it got arrowed.

I took my sons painball gun, loaded it with pink paintballs and waited with a flashlight taped the the barrel.

They were coming through my dog door and breaking into the tupperware we keep the dog food in on the back porch.

It took a couple of episodes of painting them pink to get the idea this was not a place to look for food.
