More and more Michigan cities are hiring sharpshooters to thin the deer herd these days. Yet more and more cities are banning bow hunting within city limits. What a Joke! These people keep expanding their towns into the country and wonder why they have deer around. And now they have banned hunting them and complain about to how many deer and invading their space. Both Grand Haven and Jackson plan to hire sharpshooters this month to thin deer herds. Grand Haven doesn’t allow bow hunting within the city but now all the yuppies are complaining that there hostas are getting eaten by deer. They are now paying sharp shooters 5 grand of tax payers money to thin the heard. Theydon’t even know how many deer will be taken by the sharpshooters. As for Jackson, they plan on having about 80 deer killed and some area residents complain that the deer overpopulation has created a nuisance. I can understand using sharpshooters in some areas where there aren’t really any places to hunt. For example, yesterday, there was a herd of eight deer running around downtown Detroit. I can understand using sharpshooters for things like that, but I don’t understand these cities expanding out into the country and then 5 yrs after the expand they vote and ban deer hunting and then they want to pay 5 grand per sharpshooter to thin the herd when local deer hunters would do it for free.
