Comments on: What Kind of Moron Would Shoot a Swan? http://crystalcoasttech.com/blog/hunters-shoot-wilmington-swan Latest Technology Information plus SEO and Web Design News Wed, 12 May 2010 12:42:57 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Anthony http://crystalcoasttech.com/blog/hunters-shoot-wilmington-swan/comment-page-1#comment-8946 Anthony Sun, 07 Dec 2008 14:10:32 +0000 http://crystalcoasttech.com/blog/?p=780#comment-8946 Wow - that sure was a big comment. Thanks :) It was not a blanket statement about hunting. The post was addressing the issue of hunters covering up the numbers on their boats and illegally hunting within the city limits. Surely, you are not defending that. The post did not saying anything about the perfectly acceptable practice of legally hunting Swans, or whatever is the hunter's preference. We are also making several changes to mac daddy's site, including adding the phone number - that was a definite oversight - 252-393-2313 is it in case you were really interested in that, but you might have already mentioned that to them when you filled out their website contact form. Putting up everyone's bios on the site with pictures - yeah that would probably be best, just not a priority at the moment. Wow – that sure was a big comment. Thanks :)

Serious, legitimate waterfowl hunters don't shoot swans in the kind of setting to which you refer. There is nothing wrong with hunting. Hunting is an important tool for wildlife management (http://www.fws.gov/hunting/). Just because something is aesthetically pleasing and conjurs certain fairy tale notions from childhood, doesn't mean it shouldn't be hunted and eaten. I love the way deer look... so cute, fuzzy, adorable. I hate the thought of killing them... but boy does venison taste good when it's cooked properly! Not to mention, it feeds many families who don't have the money to buy beef in the grocery store (as does duck, swan, loon, etc etc). Honestly, I know almost nothing about swan hunting, in particular; but I have good friends who hunt swan, among many other waterfowl species... and they are neither evil nor illiterate/stupid. Ok on another note... I went to your website to provide feedback about one of your websites. I went to the Mac Daddy's website to get fee information, but there wasn't any. So I figured I'd call. You (or whomever designed the website) forgot to include a phone number ANYWHERE on the site. You may want to add that or suggest it to Mac. Finally, when I looked around your website, I couldn't find anything about "who" y'all are. There's an "about" section, but it's very impersonal, especially considering you have a blog with a variety of issues discussed. When I choose people with whom to do business, I like to know who I'm dealing with... specifically... not just as a company. Well, that's it.
