woodworker Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 I had a chance once to shoot a skunk with a twelve gauge shotgun that was no more than ten feet away from me. His ass was aimed squarely at me. But I just couldn't bring myself to shoot, and neither could he, so after a few moments he let down his tail and we both walked away the better for it. As laughable as that story may seem, it is actually true.

Guest BJon Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Yeah good thing you didn't pull the trigger there would have been one less fury tailed friend around here on CC. ;D
ARMY SNIPER Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 Yeah good thing you didn't pull the trigger there would have been one less fury tailed friend around here on CC. ;D can't do without our furry tailed friend's. ;)
woodworker Posted August 25, 2014 Author Posted August 25, 2014 See Pepe', See how deep our friendship goes. I had the drop on him, but he seemed like such a nice fucking skunk, and well, you know the rest. It was close though. Now had he been a liberal skunk, there would have been chunks of him scattered all about the place.
Parasite Posted August 25, 2014 Posted August 25, 2014 I take you speak "Skunk" Mr. Woodworker? How else would you know he was a Liberal? Either way, you came out on the plus side. You rolled the dice and won. Had you shot, you would surely have been subjected to the scent. Not shooting was almost like calling each others bluff. You both came out winners. Not too many chances of that happening in the real world of humans.
woodworker Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah, for a short while it was quite a stand-off between us. But in the end it ended well.
ARMY SNIPER Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 Yeah, for a short while it was quite a stand-off between us. But end the end it ended well. came out good for both of you he would have been dead and you would have smelled like you was dead. ;)
woodworker Posted August 26, 2014 Author Posted August 26, 2014 You know that thought actually went through my head while we were having this little show down between us. But that's not the reason why I didn't pull the trigger. And I don't know why he didn't spray me, but if he had,.. BANG!
Ozi Posted August 26, 2014 Posted August 26, 2014 I think this comes under the heading of culture. I seem to be running at almost 1.5 likes for every post. I make. Not used to that much adoration (how's that for a poncy word) I thought this might help.

BANG! see even skunk's know when to and not to pull the trigger.he was a smart furry tailed critter.like tbg said he probably was thinking the same thing...but he saw you had a 12 gauge and all he had was a squirt gun. ;D :o
