Diggory you did far more for legitmate hunting than Pier did for anti-hunting with his buzzwords of "severed head" mounts. Your keeping calm, reasoned and dispassionate was far more professional than was the cartoonish Piers Morgan. Nice job painting him as a tabloid sensationalist. Great job. Gil

Great job of keeping your composure, Dig. Watching your facial expressions as Morgan was spouting off I got the impression that you actually enjoyed it. You did a great service to all ethical hunters in the way you responded to his unreasonable accusations. Calm and reasoned responses like yours go far to dispel the picture some have of all hunters being bloodthirsty beasts.
By the way, it's good to have you back on the "board".

Morgan's tone came off pretty anti-American as well. I suppose the intended audience is not an American one, but for all of the hot air he spouted on leftist American airwaves, he's can't be gaining many fans on this side of the pond from even those that agreed with him.

"So you don't mind hunting you just don't like photography." Now that's hilarious. Excellent counterpunch Digg, well timed!!! What double rifle did you use to take that buff?

That was really really well done. I also agree your line about photography was so spot on and really showed how irrational Morgan's argument was.

That was a new Westley Richards drop-lock in .577. A proper buffalo rifle. Took him in long grass at ten yards. One in the boiler room and a second in the ear as he threw his head up.

As someone noted afterwards, 'Would he like it better if it was mostly skinny Italian bus drivers doing the hunting?"

Bravo! Well done, Dig.
Have to admit I was somewhat distracted by the young lady. Nice legs. Might have a career on Fox if she were a blonde and could restrain liberal tendencies.
Morgan is a first class ass who doesn't have a clue when it comes to hunting.
