Your neighbor's suggestion is both inhuman and illegal.

Your position is perfectly fine with me.

Hunting in residential areas is not my cup of tea, and I probably wouldn't hunt there either if given the chance. Deer overpopulation, however, is a systemic problem. General lack of hunting and lack of predators is the cause. Restore either or both and your problem should diminish. You can't do it yourself. The Fish and Game department would have to manage it, because by state law in most areas game animals are the property of the state until legally taken.

People who work against legal hunting are part of the problem, I'm afraid.

We have a few deer in our neighborhood. Our neighbor had one jump the fence and break its neck, and I saw a dead one in a ditch a month or so ago. I can see where they are eating people's arbor vitaes, which is like candy for them.
