    for all of us goose haters.[^]

    Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

          Well, that was kind of my point. Wouldn't it be cheaper to tell someone who processes geese, they are allowed a certain number ?

            But that would be hunting! The geese will likely go to the landfill; green ideology demand it. Also, I expect there are liability concerns should the meat be given to "the poor." This is, after all, America ... and NYC.

              I am actually not aware of anyone who processes geese. Apparently they were not as efficiently adaptable to corporate farming techniques so we quit eating them at some point. They do look sort of yummy though. Trouble is they tend to hang out in the same kinds of places people like to hang out in, so just taking your 22 out and bagging a couple is a bit problematic.

                          They are quite yummy in my opinion. I've enjoyed eating them every since my sister attempted to keep one for a 4H project and my boxer dog decided to play with it. What a shame, they really seemed to get along :)

                            My brother has a friend who has 5 acres with a pond. He shoots his 22 from the living room through the open patio door at the geese in the pond, he says they are good eating.

                                You know, it sorta IS a waste of time, seeing as how I already know the answer. We all know Sweet Divine Justice is served up by other people. Let THEM go to gaol, you boldly shout - but I'm tough as well! Well, you talk tough, and fancy yourself the uncompromising purveyor of vengeance, but you're all words and stinking cowardice, feeding your narcissism vicariously through people willing to actually do something for their beliefs. You're pathetic.

                                          I am actually not aware of anyone who processes geese. Apparently they were not as efficiently adaptable to corporate farming techniques so we quit eating them at some point. They do look sort of yummy though. Trouble is they tend to hang out in the same kinds of places people like to hang out in, so just taking your 22 out and bagging a couple is a bit problematic.

                                          Chaining ourselves to the moral high ground does not make us good guys. Aside from making us easy targets, it merely makes us idiotic prisoners of our own self loathing.

                                          In my part of the USA, goose is easier to obtain than lamb is. Discussed it with a UK friend who thought that was odd.
