Invest in some binos!!

[mainer78]

If the guy who was at the double gates off Johnson creek road who was looking at me through his scope is reading this, how about i take my .40 and point it at you..  Invest in some binoculars people.  Also get an orange vest on you and your son.....  I dont know about you guys but every time someone looks at me through their scope i get really pissed!!

I had this happen 2 years ago...i yelled a few choice words and flipped him the bird when he was looking and he left and went into the brush and didnt come out...freaking idiot people

It is rather baffling that people seem unable to follow the four basic rules of gun safety. I'd likely have a less than rational response in the described situation.

For every one you see doing this...how many do you not? 
Are the offenders usually older (than the hunter's safety requirement)?

if he was at the gate..was he in his rig? orange is not required in the rig like so many people I see wearing that crap in there truck like its a fashion statement

I agree 100% on this.  Three years ago I was glassing  a hillside below me and came across a fat, smoking dude in orange watching me with his gun/scope.  It is unnerving to say the least and poor hunting skills.  You don't point your gun at something you do not intend to shoot.

every year this comes up ! FNN idiots or very ignorant uniformed kids that have zero mentoring by there parents in the field . There should be a huge posting on this issue on page one of the regulations .

One of the reasons I hunt archery for big game. When the idiot has a bow, his chances of killing you are exponentially smaller. Sorry to hear this. Hopefully his kid will take hunter's ed this year and correct his behavior.

Had the same thing happen to me in the same area about 10 years ago.  I flipped him, shook my fist at him and his buddy, hiked out and left a nasty note on his truck.  Haven't been back to that side of Miller Hill since.

And you wonder why they keep taking our rights! Cany fix stupid!

Saw it constantly this weekend. One guy with his two young kids that's all they had and all they were doing was point guns to glass. Pisses me off to see it. My binos suck, but it's a smarter and safer choice than using my scope.

I've noticed more scoping of myself by bear hunters while archery elk hunting (OR Coast) than I have noticed during rifle seasons. Key word is noticed though. 

I agree with the previous poster that there could be a full page notice in the regs on this to remind people, though these folks probably don't read the regs anyways....

Wonder if I could sell roll up signs that say "Hey *censored*, stop pointing your gun at me!!" 

[pianoman9701]

Are there any hunting infractions which require the re-taking of Hunter Education? If someone were caught by a gamie doing this, it should qualify. Shooting the wrong animal, loaded gun in the car, etc. What do you guys think?

[HUNTINCOUPLE]

Thats a great idea right there!
