Well if you ckilck on the huntingforbambi addressin the OP now, you get this message:
\*\*This is not a public server. Go away. \*\*
Would seem to be a flash in the pan…but hey, they got 15 minutes _and_ network coverage. 🆒

Muad’Dib, I apologize for my last post. I was a little too ornery. You and the other critics showed more restraint than I expected or deserved.
I just saw it on the local news here in Houston. I read the Snopes report on it earlier. I am starting to wonder if this is some elaborate hoax to hawk videos, which are acted. I wonder why the girls do not have goggles on. If the escorts they use are into BDSM, they can likely take paintball welts with relative ease. Likely doing less damage than slips or falls, which could cause sprains or (as my handle) road rashes. But goggles are the minimum protection. Maybe someone could feign interest and try to contact them.

Maybe, but three posts up I posted the results of trying to do that very thing.

I think I will send an e-mail to channel 11 news in Houston. Sigh…and they are supposed to be the more responsible ones.

There is nothing wrong going on here in the sense that they have every right to do this. But that does not mean that it is not sick, immoral and wrong. Anyone who would enjoy or get off on such a thing is a sick fuck that deserves to be publicly humiliated and ostracized.

I have this perverse hope that one of the videos of the great Bambi Hunt will show Pat Robinson, or Cal Thomas, or Rush Limbaugh, or Bill O’Reilly, or (be still my beating heart) Donald Rumsfelt or John Ashcroft (especially John Ashcroft) staking through the woods, paint ball gun at high port, in hot pursuit of NAKED WOMEN. :rolleyes:
It is an ill wind indeed that blows (you will pardon the expression) no one good.

“Hunting for Bambi?” Bambi was a buck. This would be more like hunting for Bambi’s mom.

I’m all for it, but only if after Bambi is hunted, you use all the parts of her. I hear saline breast implants make great mocassins.
I’m off to commune with the Great Stripper Spirit.

Looks like they’re back for the time being. I got the same thing as **Duke of Rat** yesterday afternoon.

For the same (contrived) reason that prostitution is illegal in many places: misguided morality.

Yep, looks like the site is back up. Any feminists who haven’t already gone bat shit will when they see [This Page](http://www.huntingforbambi.com/category/8/index.html).
I’d kinda like one of the caps as a conversation piece…

I admit that I’m more credulous than I want to admit.
(Now isn’t _that_ a fucking great sentence?)
I believed it last night, when I heard about it on a conservative talk show (Laura Ingram) on KSL 1160. (Hey, it’s like watching a mental/emotional trainwreck. :)) Two women were _shocked beyond belief_ about it, and they wanted it to be Outlawed Immediately.
Good little _Hausfraus_, they were. :rolleyes:
Anyway, I was shocked over how much control those two Morally Upright People wanted over the employees’ private lives. (What can I say, it was well past midnight and I’d just got back from a very relaxing moonlight walk.) I’m very Libertarian, so I thought it was those women’s absolute right to abuse themselves however they saw fit. Especially since they were getting paid, and since there was apparently a contract between them, the company, and the paying customers.
If you disagree, I can only ask `Why?’ Why do you think it should be illegal for those people to do as they choose? (I’m apparently asking a hypothetical question, given the hoax nature of the site, but the underlying question is valid.)

Sports Illustrated fell for it–it was this week’s “Sign of the Apocalypse”.

Yes, how dare anyone make any sort of moral judgement. Why they are just closeminded if they do so, you empty-headed fucker.

what, exactly, brought you to the conclusion that i am empty headed? because i enjoy a different flavor of excitement that you? if so, tell me what your preferences are. i don’t need your moral judgements. i have my own, and have every right to. and yes, you are close minded if you can not even allow for others choices.
ps, i had to start a new thread on this, in case you haven’t already seen it,[here is the new one](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/newreply.php?s=&action=newreply&postid=3758377)
