Maybe a BB gun would solve your problem. Or something that is strong enough to wound them without much noise. Or the shovel works, just a little more gruesome for my taste.

The thing is they always come back, even if you live trap them and release them a ways away. The only other option is drowning, and even that I don't have the stomach for, at least a shovel is quick.

I don't believe I said anything about you getting hit in the nose. However, you specifically stated "get hit in the face". I'm pretty sure your nose is the largest protuberance on your face. Ergo, it does make sense that someone who easily gets bloody noses that they can't even stand up in class should not be taking part in that activity.

THAT is your definition of "more mature"? Good Lord.
40kguy wrote:3.wood you need to work on your reading comprehension to because i said that i told them not to.
What the f*ck are you talking about? Learn how to quote. My reading comprehension skills are fine...however, your inability to communicate with the written word above the 4th grade level does seem to be a problem.
1. I said that if I have a bloody nose I shouldn't be standing up dip shit.
Which is STILL irrelevant to most of the time you spend in school. Or, on the other hand, if you get bloody noses that often, then you shouldn't be playing those games.
40kguy wrote:2. You should not assume things
I didn't assume anything in the post you're replying to. In fact, I did not use the word "assume" nor any word that could mean a function of "assume" in the post you're replying to.
40kguy wrote:3. Do you know what mini sticks is?
Really small sticks.
40kguy wrote:4. I can talk above a 4th grade leavl I talk with my parents at my traumas all the time.
This is thoroughly irrelevant to my statement. AND you still haven't learned how to quote (which leads me to believe that you recognize the poor quality of your arguments, so you are trying to use this to confuse the issue).

Heh, you must live in the city/suburbia. Something tells me you have never had to say, gut a deer, or take care of a 'coon living in your barn. Last one is worse cause you aren't allowed to just shoot them out of season, you have to smash them with a shovel.
If you're in the country, then I don't think anyone would notice a dead coon from your barn that was shot.
No, but gunshots within city limits are frowned upon, we have to dead with about a dozen coons getting into the grain a year that much gunfire might raise questions... I don't live in the total sticks, I can't hunt on my own land.
build a silencer, its quite simple.. Or get a gamo pellet rifle, I have one and it shoots about as fast as my 22 lr. the thing can kill them critters with ease.. about 1200 FPS will do you nicely..

Taking into account the large masses, no...it's not particularly subjective, really. Taking into account only individuals, well sure...of course it's subjective. But generally speaking, it's really not even close. Girls are typically much more mature than boys.
No, "maturity" is subjective.
I suppose definitions may differ...but whether girls mature much more quickly than boys is not. It's widely recognized.
I've generally heard that research indicates that girls physically mature much more quickly than boys, but I've never read anything confirming that either one matures faster than the other mentally.
Concerning emotional maturity, it's definitely out there. And it has a lot to do with evolution. Boys have evolved to be more risk-taking than girls, who have evolved to be dependable. Testosterone is largely considered the biggest hampering criteria regarding emotional maturity, which also makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint. I'll see if I can find something for you to look at tomorrow (it's way past my bedtime, just stopped in to check on my tournament really) and shoot it over to you.

I don't really follow what you're getting at here. What does getting a new toy have to do with dependability?

Can't you make a fence to prevent the coons from getting in?

You can kill as many as you like, but won't they just keep coming?

Love the 2 conversations going on at once.

And I hate to keep bring this up, but someone keeps disagreeing with me: dealing with gruesome things (blood etc.) doesn't measure your maturity.

Oh, gotcha...sorry about that. Went RIGHT OVER my head. <chuckle> I know what you're referring to in that regard, and I hold that it has as much to do with the male lack of emotional maturity as anything else. They're searching, searching, searching for a boy that's not an idiot. And at the junior high/high school level, those are hard to come by! <grin>

I've known Marines that simply could not watch themselves donating blood. They would literally pass out. Definitely not a "pansy ass" thing.

I'm disappointed in myself...I haven't found it yet. But I do know what I'm looking for, so I will find it. I'll have to search for it at school...maybe it was there.

I got extremely light headed when I had some blood drawn. There was nothing consciously wrong with it, but my body could not take it. I watched the needle with an unflinching eye, and I probably would have passed out had the doctor not noticed.

You would definitely be wrong. It wasn't the needle, it was seeing the blood passing down the tube into the bag. And are you actually in seriousness arguing that's MORE SCARY than seeing blood coming out of your skin from a battlefield wound?
