YOU people who assume someone wants to ban something when that person never said those words need to chill out.

No......never said I want to ban it.....just have the impression it's ridiculous that fans enjoy watching extreme risk takers barreling around a track at 200mph & then act stunned when one dies. It's of no concern to me however whether it thrives or not.

I have not suggested a ban on hunting either, but believe that teaching children it's fun to massacre defenseless creatures, as in a pigeon shoot, is mainly an activity for culturally deprived human beings.

Here's an idea for a new sport.....Fill remote-controlled nascars with pigeons & deer and while they careen around in a circle the hunter fans can pick them off with their rifles.....the lone surviving pigeon or deer wins the race.
