I wish they would grant a license to kill crack addicts, dealers, murders and rapists. I'd love to have Stackem on one street corner and me on another, in our tree stands, as we scope in on a crack addict handing his money over to a dealer. BLAM! BLAM!! Two problems solved.
By the way, I searched "deer hit by motorists statistics" and got this as the first hit. It talks about Wisconsin, but I'm too lazy to scroll further, and when I was a kid I always got them mixed up in geography class anyway. Granted this is some state legislator, probably with an agenda, but I'm assuming his stats are accurate.

[quote:ccef3]A recent national news story based on insurance claims statistics from auto insurer State Farm noted that Wisconsin ranked tenth out of the fifty states in the number of deer collisions in the year between July 1, 2004 and June 30, 2005. Based on its claims, State Farm estimated that annually 1.5 million vehicles collide with deer annually resulting in 150 motorists deaths and in excess of $1.1 billion in vehicle damages. Our neighboring states of
Michigan and Illinois
had even more vehicle-deer accidents than Wisconsin; they ranked second and third, respectively,
among all states.[/quote:ccef3]
