Hunting for Bambi

Basically, you hunt naked girls. For an appropriate fee. This weeks sign?

Yep, hunting naked girls with paint ball guns is 'true to nature.'

Thoughts?

 

Wow. That is messed up. Makes me embarrassed to be a human being.

 

I was particularly interested in the assertion that hunting Bambi is "every man's fantasy come true."

For the record, I don't think it should be illegal either.

 

Heck I would allow myself to be hit naked by a paintball ball if they paid me a 1000$ per round. No sweat.

 

I think it's bad, but it's probably of free-will they're doing it.

"Pain for Pleasure"

 

Paintball without protective gear is dangerous. It may not be dangerous if you shoot at the body, but should someone be shot in the eye, the ball goes straight through it, into the brain, which instantly kills the target. The article said, that it wasn't allowed to shoot the target above the chest, but people with poor aim, usually have no idea at what they are shooting, so accidents will happen.

 

Since men already shoot "paint" on women, this seems to be just a matter of velocity.

 

ROFL, that's too true.

 

dmc's comment about the type of people who participate in this prompts me to ask if anyone checked out the attendant video of the 'hunters.' I was also thinking like dmc that it isn't illegal but that should a death or injury occur then a tort would be sure to follow and the certain waivers that have been signed may not offer protection (not familiar with Nevada) -- I wonder though how easy it is to get this type of thing insured?

 

I'm sure there is no way they could get insurance. The concept may not be illegal, but the conditions the employees have to work under must violate a federal OSHA law.

 

What Silverblade said. My God. Do they know they are actually endangering these women's lives? I've taken paintballs in the goggles, and it is amazingly painful. Your whole head vibrates for hours afterwards and you have whiplash symptoms the next day. There is no way that you could hit someone ungoggled anywhere near the eye socket and not kill them.

For those of you who don't partake of this sport, the guns don't shoot liquid paint, they shoot hard plastic capsules like bath beads. The capsules usually - but don't always - rupture on impact with flesh and explode into paint. If you hit a bony area (and I'm guessing these are conventionally beautiful women who are pretty much all bony areas) there's a bull's eye bruise the size of a baseball mitt that lasts for weeks.

Here in Toronto, a boy is in the hospital because he got a BB from a BB gun in the eye. The doctors don't think they can save him because the BB left too big a swath through his brain tissue. A paintball is about 15 times the size of a BB.

I guess if all participants really are willing there's no reason for the law to get involved, but I was outraged when I read the one "Bambi" say she was surprised by how much the impact hurt. I don't think that anyone explained to these women just how a paintball gun works and how dangerous what they are doing really is.

 

Jesus. I used to paintball a fair bit... and damn. The rounds bruise terribly through clothes and overalls, and, as the article suggests, often draw blood when they hit raw flesh. We typically played with rules that required you demand surrender from anyone within a particular range (and could only shoot if they refused). I've seen several close-range shootings start real brawls on the battlefield...

I think deliberately mixing sex and violence is a worry. Not being a psychologist / psychiatrist / whatever, I can't back any of my feelings up with facts... does anyone know if this kind of thing contributes to more serious mental conditions?

 

I really do wonder, in which state of boredom one will come up with this idea and in which state of brain damage will one really enjoy taking a paintball gun and start hunting half naked women in order to shoot them. Couldn't they start using their free time more creatively;
Anyway since they play it on their own free will i suppose they are free even to start whipping themselves before the session to warm up

 

Our local news did a spot on this. They showed video (properly altered to obscure the nudity) of a "game" and interviewed some of the participants and the guy running it.
I thought that the male player who they interviewed was one of the biggest losers I have ever seen in my life. What a waste of humanity.
Then they interviewed the guy running it. He described his potential clientele as the sort of guys who always say "yes dear" to their wives and then described them as "wimps". I'm serious. He then went on to say it was a good way for them to get out some of their aggression. Sickening.

On another note, the urban legends website, snopes, is not convinced that this is not a hoax. If it is, it is an elaborate one. Let's hope that they are right.

 

I'm still not convinced it isn't a hoax.

One of things that is bothering me is that none of the "news articles" are even mentioning that it may be a hoax.

 

of topic: Just so everyone knows if shot in the eye by a paint ball gun it doesn't go through the eye in to the brain. Iknow this because my friend was shot in the eye it just scared it so he couldn't see for 6 months.


on topic: this is one example why the human race is a virus.
