Slashdot | Texas Lawmaker Wants To Let the Blind Hunt:

IHC Navistar writes with a story from Reuters Oddly Enough. A Texas lawmaker has introduced a measure that would allow blind people to hunt any game that sighted people can currently pursue [CC]. The article notes that the bill may have clear sailing in the hunting-besotted state of Texas. An education outreach person from the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department explained it this way: "A blind person can shoot a rifle by mounting an offset pistol scope on the side of the rifle instead of on top. This allows their companion behind them to peer over their shoulder and help them sight it, but the blind person can pull the trigger."

...but I'm gonna say it anyways.

What the FUCK?

Seriously, has there ever been a blind person who felt less of a man not because he was blind specifically, but because he couldn't hold a gun and shoot a living animal simply for the hell of it?  Ever?

I wonder if Cheney's hunting mishap had something to do with this...
