Wrong....more deer in the US are killed by automobiles than hunters.
Automobiles
are manipulating the deer population.
Automobiles, driver licenses, are a privilege......not a right.
Ban automobiles and the resultant manipulation of the deer population.
Through efforts of the states DNR deer populations are at there highest.
Deer also cause tens of millions in damage to vehicles each year. Bad deer
Ban stupid deer, ban cars...........at some point Malcolm other groups will
get around to
banning things you like.
