I have loved him for OVER 20 years BUT I do NOT love his going to Africa and killing the animals JUST TO PUT TROPHY HEADS on his walls.

Killing to eat is one thing but killing for Trophies is WRONG and I am sick at heart that this man I have loved and admired for so long would do such a thing! Mad

Its a different mindset, marespooscats. I'm not in favor of hunting at all for a variety of reasons, but can't expect everyone to think like me.

I DO understand his hunting in the US but to go to AFRICA!!!!!! This HURTS as I just love him so! I wish he would learn to use a camera and put photos on his wall instead of heads!

I see NOTHING wrong with it. Wild animals are killed for a purpose and reason. I have friends that are from Africa...in fact they just moved back there to be with an ailing father...but she said they WANT people to kill them because they are over-populated with them in Africa and they are DESTROYING their vegetation. She should know since that's where she was born and raised and all her family lives there. My uncle who was born and raised in south Texas killed deer for meat to eat and then...yes, had several heads mounted and hung them in his ranch house where he lived. He used them to hang his work hats on when he came in from working the fields. Besides...the cave men killed them for food or they would have starved. City people have no clue! Rolling Eyes

That is balony! People have intruded onto the animals land and then they kill them because they get in the way. THEY WEre there first.

OH why don't we kill people and hang our hats on THEIR heads! It is WRONG! Killing for food is one thing but to kill for sport - better to track and kill a man instead!

And I suppose YOU believe we should kill the mustangs as THEY are taking land our cattle need to graze on! Sheesh!

I'm a hugh GS fan but I don't like hunting. We all think differently, and from what I read, hunting is part of George's culture and the way he was raised. There are many hunting enthusiasts, especially in Texas and out West. I live in Denver but am not one of them.

THAT I understand and accept - it is just the hunting in Africa that upsets me.

Problem IS I love him so much I can't just turn away from him.

love George

:Have been his fan for over 25 years. He is a true cowboy. met him once in 1990. He is so sweet. I listen to him, for his music. I don't care what he does in his pesonal life. He has never had anything bad written about him, not like alot of them. I know that he has always went Elk hunting didnt know anything about Africa, but whatever he wants to do on his off time, thats his business. It was sad to hear about his brother Buddy dying earlier this year. I know how close they were. I think he has only the one sister left now. has anyone heard if Bubba is engaged? I think that it is really nice that him and Bubba are writing together.

GOOD. As you shouldn't. He is a sweetheart and so sweet and has a real talent. If he likes to hunt and that relaxes him to where he can perform when we want to see him do that, and he is totally into his fans when he is on the stage, Then let him hunt.

Yes, we still love George! LOL! The boards have changed. Some good things and some not as good. Admin has taken away images because of the porn posters, so I have to post all of George photos at Kim's site and then leave a link for them in the News topic here. I hope Admin can return imaging to us soon.

i noticed all of the porn stuff , why can't Admin delete these people from the boards?
I also noticed how this one person keeps posting about medicines. Why do these people come here and what to destroy a good thing, all I know is they need to get a life.

Posters like that want attention, maybe have issues and need to feel important. They do need to get a life! LOL! I ignore them. Admin once said the CW board doesn't have a big budget for software to handle and keep track of the porn posters and keep them away.
