This is insane! Why in the HECK are you people debating French history, military, & society when (a) Nugent probably never even said that to begin with (snopes ain't the end-all, be-all), and (b) even if he did, it's certainly not hunting or gun-related, in any way, shape, or form.
This is the HUNTING forum, folks.
Talk about Nugent's hunting skills and adventures or please keep it to yourself or take it over to www.armedpolitesociety.com .
Thank you for your cooperation.

While this is an odd topic for this forum, it looks like the Nuge did say this, and it's no surprise. Also, his comments were regarding the final thoughts of a hunted animal. Uncle Ted, himself, will always be gun related, and discussions about his breakfast should be viewed through the lens of the 2nd Amendment. I don't see much of a problem with this topic other than the French discussion (which seems to be the bulk of the thread).

Exactly. You just said it - it's "the bulk of the thread", and 100% off-topic.
The Nuge is always hunting-related, true, so let's talk about the Nuge, not the French (whether he said that or not).
And the Nuge is right, deer don't think about "oh is that guy gonna kill me; what about my kids and family and friends?" - they just think "is everything ok, or is something hinky where I should run away?"

I've spent years traveling and living in Brazil, Italy, France, Germany, and Israel for a bit as well. I'd have to say that I like France and the French - outside of Paris. The Parisians are a different breed - considered so by the French themselves.
I wouldn't say that the vast majority of well travelled Americans like the French, only because most Americans only hit Paris, which is populated honestly by generally not so nice people. I can't personally stand the bourgeoisie elitism feigning their all-knowing ethics.
However, keeping this hunting related, once you get out in the countryside, it changes. Sainte-Croix, a place I spent a couple weeks climbing, has some of the nicest folks you'll ever meet (and daily hot baguettes!) We saw some wonderful partridge, pheasant, and boar (in fact, I got chased out of my sleeping bag by a wild boar while camping solo up in the mountains one evening!). Would love to go back and do some hunting.

I bet the Nuge would take up the opportunity to arrow some of those stag.

DANG!!! I headed east on Tuesday, and folks had been acting like they thought this was the Hunting forum.
1,400 miles later, I log on and find this garbage? Shame!
