(7,300 posts)1. Fact:
That shouldn't be newsworthy, it should be the norm.

Water is wet.
Deer hunting is well regulated. How many bullets can you have in your gun? How much was your license?

(17,169 posts)3. 36.82 million?
Really? Who counted?

(51,460 posts)5. I call that untrue. That number would be more than 10% of
the entire population, counting the 100 million children. I do not believe that many are deer "hunters" (sitting in a tree, waiting for baited deer to walk by, isn't hunting).

(25,862 posts)8. That was also my thought, that the number of supposed hunters
seemed way too many to be accurate.

(9,481 posts)7. Most deer hunters I know don't use AR 15's
Causing massive damage to internal organs generally isn't good for the taste of your venison.

(33,345 posts)9. That meme is dumb as fuck
as are most pro-gun memes.
and that IS a fact.
Autumn
(45,107 posts)10. I doubt any of those "36.82" million deer hunters used an assault rifle to kill their deer.
600900 RPM would kind of ruin the meat.
That 36.82 million hunting licenses, tags, permits and stamps sold in 2017 includes other game animals
