Upcoming Show: Open Mic

I am working on a show that will be different than anything you have heard in the past. We will be discussing as a round table how to kill a Sasquatch, what should be done afterwards and the unforeseen consequences of killing one of these creatures. Should one be shot and killed? You decide!

    (New Jersey) Wow, terribly disappointing!! Not only should a Sasquatch NOT be killed, but frankly, even the discussion of killing one of these enigmatic creatures, to me, is absolutely repugnant. To discuss the Murder of a creature, who we have yet to even understand or properly classify, is beyond the pale. Let’s continue to use this show to educate ourselves about these mysterious beings. NOT to discuss how to Murder one!! How about cancelling this “show” before it even gets started.

      • Glen K

        Wes, I thank you for the invitation. Should I ever have an encounter, of course you would be the first person I would call. I know the arguments for “killing one,” which include getting a better understanding of who/what they are. I’ll wait for a corpse to be found. As little patience as I have for More government regulations, I sincerely hope laws are passed that criminalize the killing of a Sasquatch. That’s just how I feel.

        • Wes

          Glen, there is nothing wrong with the way you feel. I would love to hear your side of the argument. Its just a discussion, I wont come after you for how you feel. You have listened to the show, I respect everyone’s thoughts. Think about coming on.

          • Glen K

            M99, Wes, I’ve given this a lot of thought, and I think I’ve come to this conclusion. Perhaps what really disturbs me is the way this show is being presented. I quote…”We will be discussing how to kill a Sasquatch……..” Add to that, the graphics showing bullets bouncing around, and the sound of gunfire. I truly believe, or should I say, I truly hope we are not talking about some blood sport, where we discuss the best strategy or weapons needed to best corner and kill a Bigfoot. Should that be the case, I have ZERO interest. However, if we are talking about the ethical dilemma of killing an unknown species for scientific research, that is another matter. This issue has been written about and discussed at length by scientists and other experts in the ” Bigfoot Community.” I imagine we all here have considered this very serious and sensitive issue. I think we have all considered this profound question, and have come to peace with our decisions. To me that is what it comes down to. I have heard and frankly Respect the differing opinions. It’s just something I don’t wish to engage in a discussion. If we were asking a yea or nay as to killing a Sasquatch for scientific research, I would vote No.

        • Hillary H

          Hi Glen, allow me to apologise for an unkind comment down below…. but aside from that can we better frame ‘scientific research’? The Japanese whalers slaughter all these whales every year and they call it for research. They’re such losers.
          But imagine for a second, ethics of taking a specimin out from the wilds in order that we might Validate ALL the men whove been ridiculed, mocked and even fired from their jobs for speaking up about it. To me this issue goes where mere science research is too blinking …. Not good enough. Scientists rely on grant money to get their work and findings published, then still not good enough unless peer reviewed. A lot of good science gets side lined by this.
          So, forget the money and funded research and experts bla bla and go for redress a terrible injustice and imbalance in the public record?

          • Glen K

            Thanks Hillary, but no apology necessary. I’m a big boy, and I don’t mind criticism. Again, my only objection was HOW the show was being advertised. The bullets and gunfire, etc. I certainly did not mean to cause a ruckus. It is Wes’ show, NOT mine! I was just trying to give some feedback. Wes is a decent, stand up guy. Sasquatch Chronicles is a First Rate Show in every sense of the word. I enjoy it immensely and will continue to do so. The Sasquatch mystery just fascinates me. It’s so nice to have a venue like this to share with people who feel the same way.

        • Taylor W

          I feel the same way you do. But to have valid points in this conversation I don’t think you need an encounter go on the show buddy. Let’s say they kill an alpha male it can change the whole dynamic of that family unit.in my opinion a body won’t change a thing

    • Dovie D

      Wow! I think it should be discussed. Besides from what I have heard some have been killed. Everyone has a right to an opinion just like you have a right to yours. Some people don’t agree with you. I encourage you to keep an open mind

  2. pam

    Quote from Jaws; “You’re Going To Need A Bigger Boat…”
    Upon seeing the video above, those bullets although many, are not going to be big enough. Looking forward to the show ,Wes, I really believe the way you do but wish it weren’t necessary.

  4. pam

    Forgot to mention that the video is awesome, shows how far you have come in your studio skills. I would like to be on the open mic show, just as one who is willing to be convinced that there is another way to actually accomplish the deed of scientific and cultural proof.

  6. Chuck S

    I believe it to be necessary, if only there is a way to keep it under wraps until revealed to the right people at the right time to avoid any possible government interference, or to avoid killing a Bigfoot with no way to get it to the reveal.. There must be a solid plan for disposition of the specimen before the hunt ever begins. The hunt itself would also require solid planning for obtaining permission for a location for the hunt, security for the hunting party and general hunting area, recovery of the specimen, as well as transport and storage. The hunting party itself would need to consist of 8 or more people, based on task organization. They wouldn’t necessarily have to be military or prior military, but the tactical skills of special ops types would lend themselves well to the job. The logistics part would be extensive, and OPSEC (operational security) would have to be tight. I enjoy watching “Killing Bigfoot”, but a lot of the things they do, or don’t do, makes me cringe. Anyway, just my $.02.

    • Hillary H

      $.02
      Need multiple people ready to release prepared press release info and handle incoming traffic, questions etc. need a few tv journos to be ready to bring Breaking News headlines to as many tv stations nation wide all at same time….need good communicators on board. Already got the good hunters…

  8. m99

    Today a gf asked if I’d seen the show Killing BF, of which I replied, once. Perhaps they will discuss what to do in the event of having to kill one if attacked, and how to get it out of there to prove their existence.

  9. Teresa V

    I use to have the “don’t kill Bambi” attitude about hunting until I took a Wildlife Conservation course in college, and it changed my whole attitude about wildlife. As far as hunting goes, it’s a lot better to kill off a few rather than have them starve because of over populating. I think a Sasquatch has to be harvested so 1) the world knows that they are real and what you should do or not do to protect yourself and family ; 2) so science can study them so we know what and what not to do so these creatures don’t become extinct like so many species before them.

    • James M

      TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU TERESA. I THINK THERE HAVE BEEN MORE BIGFOOT SIGHTINGS BECAUSE THE DEER POPULATION IS OUT OF CONTROL. PEOPLE DON’T HUNT LIKE THEY USED TO LEADING TO OVERPOPULATION OF BOTH SPECIES.

      • Taylor W

        I feel the same way you do. But to have valid points in this conversation I don’t think you need an encounter go on the show buddy. Let’s say they kill an alpha male it can change the whole dynamic of that family unit.in my opinion a body won’t change a thing

  10. Gene P

    I just lost a lot of respect for you Wes. “How to kill a Sasquatch”?
    Your show is about the experience of witness sightings. If you want to shot something, shoot yourself in the foot!
    Of course a small sector of the government wants to keep the public and the Sasquatch separated.
    Kill the wolves, kill the buffalo, kill the mountain lions. If you don’t understand it kill it. Nobody believes their real kill one, figure out how to out maneuver our government, just to prove what to who!

      • Wes

        Gene, it’s a discussion, you haven’t even heard the show yet. I tell you what, why don’t you come on the show and share your thoughts? What amazes me is everyone who is against killing one refuses to come on the show. I respect everyone’s ideas and thoughts, maybe I can learn from you and you can learn from me.

      • Glen K

        I don’t think I do. I Respect everyone’s opinion, and I believe in open and free discussion. After giving it a lot of thought, I wrote another reply to Wes and M99. I would ask that you please read it. In short, my biggest issue was How the show was being “advertised.” Instead of – Is it ethical to kill A Bigfoot for scientific research, we were asked to discuss “How to Kill a Sasquatch”, with bullets bouncing around, and the sound of gunfire! I didn’t think that was the way to approach such a sensitive issue.

    • Hillary H

      Hey, the 3 min attention grabber vid is just chutzpah. Its not about being macho its about saving lives and forcing some honesty. Too many people going missing, too many people being ridiculed like crazy for telling the truth. Too many law enfircement,mparks n wildlife men and women in fear of losing their livelyhood if they speak out the real truth is the idealogical outright capricious intellectual brutality of those in the know!

  11. Scott Perry

    Wes my friend, you can lead them to water but you can’t make them drink. Great idea you have here. You are doing a great service to the topic. I believe this will truly be a breakthrough discussion on the Kill- No kill debate. Folks gotta understand what you’re tryn to do here.Just bring to the table a healthy debate. Nothing wrong with that. This is truly groundbreaking on your part. Best wishes, lookn forward to the show. Scott Perry

  12. Anthony C

    Wes, I do believe a Sasquatch should be killed( one we know that has killed people already). A helicopter with a cargo net attached to hoist it up and many armed people to fend off the remaining Bigfoot. Then taken to an underground bunker, like one of these “Doomsday” people have.

  13. Anthony C

    But keep in mind, the government is going to do their part to gather all info to try to acquire the body once it happens, so a diversion for Law Enforcement will need to be thought through and incorporated with this plan as well.

    • Hillary H

      All you need is plausible deniability. A scenario where one is in fear for their lives, then the other thing is human error. Call it is asap but give error prone dumb klutz ooops gave the wrong address….hey it happens to the best

  14. Danny G

    I have a team of three ready to go.
    If wes and woody want to come, great.
    Just put us in touch with the hunter in east Texas that was “chased off the deer lease”
    We’re hungry. 🙂

  16. Derek H

    Wes, first I want to say how much I love your blog posts,
    Almost as much as the episodes. Really good content. Secondly on the matter of killing a Bigfoot. I don’t believe we need to actively hunt down Bigfoot. I do think we need to have a body though. I’m thinking that with all the reports of people shooting and killings aggressive Bigfoots, or Bigfoots getting run down by cars. I feel like the real problem is what Anthony C was getting to. The government coverup is the real issue. You’d have to have a procedure set up with some reliable go to Sasquatch experts. PHD types. Get people awareness up on thee hotline or website to contact this group. And as Anthony C was saying do it somewhere safe.

    • Hillary H

      Youre right, in my opinion, the bigger long term challenge, and pointless to risk such damger without it, is a solid method for information distribution on multitudes of levels. Avoid too much PhD and focus on character

  17. Brenda G

    Just call me a ‘conspiracy theorist’….but I think the government has already harvested several bigfoot. I have a ‘gut hunch’ from stories I read, and listened to, long before Wes started Sasquatch Chronicles. I’d bet there are a lot of these animals that have been ‘tagged’ with a tracking device. If you kill one, you’d better cut it up and send it to the four corners of the earth to see which piece the govt. tracks.

    If you go to any University that has an animal study program you will find hundreds, if not thousands of specimens, in jars – preserved for study. Didn’t Audubon kill birds in order to study them for his paintings? He did not kill the entire species. Thankfully we have fantastic cameras now.

    It’s your show Wes, and I don’t care what you want to talk about I’ll, should say ‘We’ will listen. (My boyfriend bought me the subscription….best bf EVER!! BEST SHOW EVER….Can’t get enough!!!) If it’s something we don’t want to listen to we’ll turn the channel. What the heck is it that you can’t even discuss something, or anything, these days without some people going off the rails? I’m sick and tired of people not understanding there are other points of view…and to be so d*mn closed minded that you can’t even discuss another point of view? Turn the channel if you don’t want to hear what Wes is going to talk about…..try Disney….lots of Unicorns. Wes works his *ss off to put two Bigfoot shows on each week. Listen to those, and be glad that he does this and it’s so inexpensive for the work he does and the enjoyment we get. Any thing else is icing on the cake. Wes, we LOVE you!

    • Hillary H

      Youre clever Brenda! Send each quarter off and sit back and watch where the men in black go for retrieval! Bloody brilliant…. and yes, its odd how anxious some people have reacted. But there’s a lot of anxiety in the community for all kinds of reasons and maybe it comes through on these guys, mistakenly thinking its a big macho show thing when its not. Gotta say tho the clip is designed for combat oriented fighter, leader…Alpha Male types, lol. Im sure it was fun to make. Cheers Brenda

  18. Carolyn R

    Wes, the sasquatch for eons have not cared if we humans, adults as well as children were opportunisticly caught, torn apart until they died and then eaten… one taken in the name of science will never bother me.. I had already started planning the beginning and end.
    Wes, there is always two sides of every coin. Thank you for having the courage to bring out the contraversial (sp) side of this coin. You’re the best….

  19. Jill M

    I hate the thought of killing one. Some of the sightings suggest they live as families. A mother with young could be killed or a father who gathers the food for the family. I also think that someone with no qualms about killing of may even shot a young one. It makes me feel awful for these creatures being hunted to kill. Thank you.

      • Hillary H

        I feel like that too especially some stories about the basic creature when living in its habitat, like in some areas where it seems they are not quite so crazy/violent. I oft wonder about that female seen running for her life so it seemed, terrified. My best guess, to me she was expelled from a clan or about to be ‘dominated’ against her will…maybe some horrid big ugly nasty male would not accept her refusal kind of thing.
        Consider why they grow such thick necks, is it defense from one another?
        Im sure the odd female has taken a human child to try and keep it from the rest of the clan and perhaps that in days of old, indian women have gone and tended old injured ones, especially the females, when infirm or orphaned tiny ones if they get found before the big ones kill it.
        I read about one in the Soviet wilds years ago and the stupid human men had to go and fk her, and they did, and she gave birth. Some died some were raised by other village women. Intriguing story.
        So while its not all bad its not all good either. In a perfect world, ay…

  21. Paula B

    Wes, so many, many people who’ve been on your show have stated the life-changing effect that their experience of witnessing a Sasquatch has had on them. To talk about killing one (not that talking about it can make it happen, still, ALL talking has influence; the Holocaust started with talking)…is only going to muddy the waters of ‘proof’ of their existence, and the effect they have on humans, because, as you & your guests have stated so often, the government will swoop in and cover it up, seize the body, OR – will make the whole thing look like a bunch of nuts with a rubber monkey suit in a freezer (some GA guy, I think, did that. What a dumb jerk.)
    Wes…I love this show! But your upcoming show just seems like an attempt to sensationalize the situation…you’re a small
    show, though adored. Why would you do this? Arggh. I can’t listen to this one, it just feels WRONG in advance.
    Having said that — I don’t think you should cancel it (not that I’m a big influence on anyone) I believe you should program your
    show as you see fit.

    • Hillary H

      Is the way ahead, in the event some one ends up with a bonafide carcass one way or another, not so much killing one but dealing with the problem you rightly call attention to? Wes needs thinkers and good speakers in the discussion . Gun talk, is just shop talk best kept amonst that specialist group….believe youn me they will be specialists and its not info the whole lot of us would wish or need to be privvy to.
      The issues are clearly aimed at effective and lasting, validated disclosure that cannot be denied. A body so far has not done this neither have bones or stories or eyewitness accounts…why? Because of ridicule and suppression . Maybe what will make it REALLY REAL is if some famous person gets a film crew and dies, like that Steve Erwin from Australia Zoo fellow who got killed by the stingray, No one doubts there was a stingray. God forbid but, how many people have died or died inside, already?

  23. michael r

    I think the argument is moot, as if a BF is killed, the FEDS will swoop in and take the body away from you, and arrest all involved on some made obscure statute, cease the weapons, vehicles, cell phones ETC. Then they will threaten the FCC license on any tv/radio station involved, and all social media references will be flagged and deleted into the galactic bit bucket.

    Just my two cents as i do n’t think that the powers that be would allow the publicity

  24. Amy H

    This is intriguing. I’ve thought much about it. I’m sure many have.
    I think it will be a good show but also possibly disturbing. Perhaps this is an example of the desperation people feel when constantly ignored or disregarded? It’s a chance, I presume, our government is willing to take. Like many others, I believe the government knows sasquatch exists. The evidence is overwhelming and usually the government needs very little (in some cases very circumstantial) to say something seemingly outrageous.
    Killing a sasquatch is so much more then the act. It’s everything that will need to occur afterwards and beforehand. It will require expert planning. It will require knowing the right people. It will be daunting to attempt to bring the discovery into the light.
    Not only will the person(s) who do it battle their own moral judgements, but also the rathe of the government which is far reaching and can be everlasting. However, if someone doesn’t kill one and run through the gamut of government swords, we will be waiting MANY more decades before science can prove it.
    I hope this show will be good….. The best shows always take on the most polarizing topics!

  26. Dave T

    Oh boy, a lot of the natives are restless. Wes, do your show the way you see fit. There’s nothing wrong with a little controversy and getting a discussion going. It’s good to get all views on issues in order to draw conclusions. If you need an opinion from a hunter in the mix let me know. No, I don’t hunt boogers. I am in the “you need a body” camp to prove their existence. How it’s acquired is the problem. I think all sides of this kill / no kill issue might learn something from a show like this so you’d be foolish to boycott it.

  27. Sid N

    My point of view is short. I won’t judge a book just by its cover. Unless we hear both sides of an issue, how can we judge it? How can we rightly prejudge this show before hearing it? We all have views. That fact alone doesn’t make our views either right or wrong. I for one am looking foreword to hearing from all sides. ???

  28. Karen C

    Well my thoughts are they are breeding in large number now, I would like to harvest a Adult Male like you would deer so we could figure out how to slow down the population. I think of the ones coming up to your kids bedroom window to entice them outside, the lone hunter that never comes back at the end of the day, the Mom who goes berry picking an gets confronted by a unknown creature, these are the reasons Wes needs to bring up this subject, so come on Snowflakes if its to much for you don’t listen, just one girls opinion…

  29. doug w

    Wes I have been hunting them over the last month after finding tracks and then a track again a week later.
    Had an AR15 an electronic caller and a motion decoy. I was fully prepared to drop this thing..Off with the head both hands and a foot. Let the coyotes have the rest. I took pics of the tracks in the snow and it really freaked me out to the point I have to know now. My wife knows me and she is afraid I will find it. I camped out over night there2 wks ago daring it to show its self and to be honest I was freaked out all night so was my dog. I have trail cameras I there now and hope to get a picture. I contacted someone in the know and they told me a family lives in there. They said if I shoot one I will never make it out alive. I will take that chance.

  30. doug w

    Funny but I rolled in there in the darkest up cameras in positions I would expect a man or game to come to me using the terrain. I put a lights out camera on the trail in if it were that ballsy to come right down the road. Then I put a camera right on my camp if it were to ty to mess with me. I was THE BAIT that night. Now that I know they are there I was pumped goin in. I will say this if it looked more man like the safety would stay on. More ape like and lead and lots of it will be headed down range.
    I can’t wait for this show.

  31. Chuck S

    Wow. A proposed discussion about the hypothetical killing of a creature not yet proven to exist really has some people riled up. This is going to be fun, for sure.

    • doug w

      Charles I was a skeptic but want to believe. Once I saw those tracks my mind changed in a few minutes of following it. I think they follow elk herds here.

      • Charles R

        HI Doug W. I was only curious. You have a plan to take one out, it seems good. I was just curious if you had a plan once you get it out. That part will be just as difficult.

    • michael r

      hypothetical? I have been treading water with the activity for 10 years. Last year I forbade my goddaughters from splashing and playing in the river when I was cooking . The rock on rock clacks and wood knocks were getting too much to bare in may and june. Tell me please smart ass, what what is capable of making rock clacks, rock on tree, wood hitting wood when deer and elk are in velvet…a raccoon? you are telling me that a raccoon is capable of striking things so hard in daylight that I can hear it against the wind?

  32. JAMES B

    Great topic Wes!!!
    Show should prove informative
    Especially regarding how one goes about physically killing one
    What weapons would prove effective
    How to protect the hunting party
    And so on
    Have put many months n Years thought to those very questions myself

    Still the best and most educational on the web
    Great job Wes!!!

  33. brad b

    I don’t really condone hunting Sasquatch just to prove they exist either but getting all worked up over a hypothetical conversation is a little much.

  34. brad b

    I think there are two big problems with hunting Sasquatch down and living to tell the tale and bring back a body. First, if you bring enough people into the woods to get the job done you’ll likely never see one. They’re going to see/hear/smell a big hunting party long before the hunters see them and they’ll be out of the area before they can be bagged.

    So the answer to that brings up the second problem. If you employee a small team that can move in more quietly you aren’t going to have the numbers to defend your kill from it’s fellows before you can get the body out whole or in pieces. And that’s if you find some way for two or three men to carry 500lb to maybe over 1000lbs of Sasquatch out of the deep woods.

    It’s certainly possible you may catch one alone. But a lot of the evidence suggests where there is one Sasquatch others are usually nearby. Good luck fighting off a whole family of these monsters at once with two or three hunters no matter how well armed they may be.

    And the idea you’re going to plan some massive operation with helicopters and an army of operators on standby ready to swoop in and collect your kill real quick is unlikely. The bigger your hunting party the more likely word will get out and authorities will either shut you down before you begin or be aware of what your doing and take whatever kill you make before you can present it to the world.

    I’m not saying killing one and producing a body will be impossible but it’s going to be extremely difficult and require no small amount of pure luck to pull it off.

    • michael r

      all true brad, i agree I am “used to” stereo calls against the wind, to kill one would make a huge mess. Beyond the GOV issue i previously outlined in my first post, there are other BF to deal with almost Immediately. What then? Are we to kill 5 of them and to begin to believe that the wrath will not be taken out on other local innocent families?

  35. Christian L

    Why do you need “hunters” to kill a Sasquatch? Just start a “feeding” type relationship with a group, gain their trust… then after a few weeks spike the goodies with a sizable dose of Cyanide.

    Seismic sensors burried beneath the soil at feeding area let the collection team know when the Sasquatch(s) make their arrival and either they all eat the bait and they all die, or one or more do and one or more do not, either way, they are either all dead instantly or the remaining Sasquatch have to carry/drag the dead sasquatch(s) away with the assault team on their heels.

    The chances they would all take the bait (being big hungry damn dirty apes) having already become accustomed to dropping by for a tasy snack, is good.

    As a fail-safe, I saw a team of “researchers” employing the use of a very small gps tracking device. They were actually so small they were able to affix this decice to a prickly little bur. They were hanging the vurs 7 or 8 feet off the ground on trails hoping that a Sasquatch would walk by and get the bur stuck in its fur. FurBurGPS1000…lol.

    Seems like these burs may come in handy at a well habituated “feeding area”.

    Oh by the way, I see nothing wrong with killing a Squatch to settle the mystery and move forward in the discovery and I honestly believe that some Sasquatch have and do kill, rape, and terrorize humans for their own enjoyment. I also believe Humans in general all have a right to know what the potential dangers are. I also think the highly skeptical “mainstream scientists” need a wake-up call. Many of them sold out on doing real science a long long time ago! WHOLE ‘NOTHER CONVO!

  36. joe r

    I wonder what all these sympathetic people would have to say if it were possible to interview a vast majority of the people in David Paulides’s missing 411 books. Imagine if they all could speak an explain in detail what happened to them, i bet the sale of firearms in this country would go through the roof.

  39. TheGiant573

    Logistics of getting an 800lb+ animal out of the woods is what keeps me from hunting them and the fact that I would more than likely piss my boots and end up as lunch. I feel it is necessary for science that a body be recovered somehow. Still if the powerball comes through I will fund this expedition.

  41. james k

    Great show idea Wes,
    Although killing a bigfoot is not a desire of mine, I do believe that people should be aware of the things to do/not do in the event they are put in a position to have to defend themselves. These are large, smart and potentially dangerous animals. If you must defend yourself, the basic knowledge of how to put one down quickly is required. Also, I think people need to know what to expect in the aftermath ie other animals in the area to defend against, where to take the body, who to report to, what backlash to expect etc. Good job Wes, although not popular idea with everyone (understandably), there is a need I think. Keep up the great work.

  43. Charles R

    There is a team that is trying this know, and have been for years. Probably most know the GCBRO at least with the series Killing Bigfoot. With a good size team that is armed right and they appear to be good hunters and such, they have had no luck. Oh a few years ago over in Texas one member claimed to have shot one, maybe in the shoulder but I do not think blood was found, maybe it was. There was a big bru ha ha among various members with Jim Lansdale and Bobby Hamilton spiting off into what the group is now. I imagine other groups that currently are not know well are trying also. I maybe know of a group that opperated in the Adirondacks, but they have gotten old.

    Of course the way the show is set up no bigfoot is going to come close with the large production crew with them, but even without them results are none. That is how tough an undertaking this is. And the other elephant is what are you going to do if you do. Who are you going to get it too with out you know who getting involved. How are you going to keep it in cold storage before showing it as it may take days to line up a press conference. I guess one might do what Tom Biscardi did back in 08, but please have an actual bigoot, no rubber. You may well find your self in all sorts of legal trouble, both Federal and Civil in this current legal environment. The Peta folks ( and maybe some real whack jobs) will surround your house for weeks. You will certainly have a heavy burden to carry and maybe for a long time.

    I would never kill one, I consider it the same as taking a human life because these are hominid relatives and not just an animal. That said it is the only way to bring about, not discovery, but acknowledgement once and for all.

    I wonder what Marlin Perkins would have done?

      Could maybe be worth it all just to save some lives….the discussions here plus the coming show could become like a ‘ThinkTank’ nutting out a hundred possible scenarios.
      Heck, the Vatican made some big dispatch announcement a while back they were saying, they want to be the ones to greet the first world acknowledged Alien encounter….
      Surely we can draw up a few ‘what ifs’ and how to,etc.
      indians of bygone era Had to do this very same thing to ensure their own survival…too many kids getting taken,etc.

    Anyone want o join me ?? I know where they are. I’m a lone wolf me and my bait dog. I have??seen tracks 3 times and followed them for some distance. Now you bow hunters know what it’s like to track a gut shot or marginal hit deer so you can relate . I have been on God know how many blood trails so when I follow tracks I’m pretty sure of what I’m looking at. Not one track but hundreds of the in snow and that thing was headed somewhere. Now if I was armed better did not have the dog slowing me down I would have stayed on the track. I would ask anyhunter to follow those tracks and come to another possible answer. If I was not so freaked out and watching my 6 I would have looked for hair on branches or some other evidence. I was just worried that they were nearby and I only had a Glock 45 with extended mag with me. This hunt ain’t over and btw I will skin and bones saw off the hand and foot but the head I will cut the neck to the spine like a deers head and spin it off…With hairy man’s head and get outta Dodge.

    Think about this please, the best BF target would be a hyper violent BF that has been kicked out of the clans due to mental issues, a retarded hyper-violent that the clans will not defend. I think they guard their families against this type of BF and will have no issues with it being killed.

    My two cents worth from replying to Glen K:

    Hi Glen, allow me to apologise for an unkind comment down below…. but aside from that can we better frame ‘scientific research’? The Japanese whalers slaughter all these whales every year and they call it for research. They’re such losers.
    But imagine for a second, ethics of taking a specimin out from the wilds in order that we might Validate ALL the men whove been ridiculed, mocked and even fired from their jobs for speaking up about it. To me this issue goes where mere science research is too blinking …. Not good enough. Scientists rely on grant money to get their work and findings published, then still not good enough unless peer reviewed. A lot of good science gets side lined by this.
    So, forget the money and funded research and experts bla bla and go for redress a terrible injustice and imbalance in the public record?

    I know having to kill one and get it back would be very difficult for a number of reasons.
    I’m sure “catch and release” would be even more difficult, but just imagine if that was at all possible. To be able to release it back to its family and home….

    Wow! All these responses and the show hasn’t even aired yet! I am really looking forward to this one. I’ll throw in one question. Is anyone willing to sacrifice the lives of your healthy loved ones for the advancement of science?

    I don’t see anything wrong with this topic. It’s an open mic, try to get on and state your beliefs on the subject. It’s Wes’ show. I think it’s sad he is getting death threats over this topic.

    I was told there is a peeper squatch near me looking in Windows. Here in Colorado in the mtns most all these houses are secluded and no curtains or shades on any windows…My house is like a freaking fish tank all glass. Now out here in the woods you got to protect yourself because help is 45 minutes away. If a bf is so brazen to look in your windows do you think it’s trying to make friends? Heck no you try that and see how long you live peeping in people’s houses as everyone here has GUNS. I’m sure some are being shot ever few years but we just don’t hear about it. The story I like the best is the dude from VA that shot one in the chest. I have listened to that at least 5 times and I believe that guy really shot one.

    Wes buddy, just reading the comments is amazing. Your doing the right thing invoking conversation on this. Keep your chin up cuz.I don’t think a body would change a thing.

    Well, you’ve certainly struck a nerve in THIS blog entry. Honestly, I have to agree with all of the comments, which have given me reason to ponder. You have the most diverse audience out there, wouldn’t you say? And the fact that so many shared, illustrates they (we) feel comfortable, welcome to do so. Frankly, I can’t wait to hear this open mic! Good job Wes.
