A Texas lawmaker is aiming to allow the blind to hunt.

State representative, Edmund Kuempel, has introduced a measure that will allow blind people to hunt any game that sighted people can currently pursue.

Under the bill, blind hunters will be required to have a sighted hunter with them, and will be allowed to use laser sights which are currently not allowed.

Blind people with guns = Dumb ass Texans

That's just stupid.

What next? Sending blind soldiers to Iraq?

This sounds like a Dick Cheney incident waiting to happen.

That's what friends are for; including counting on'em to shoot you in the face.

What in the hell?!? I mean, sending blind people out into the woods to shoot each other or whatever is one thing, but why in the hell give them laser sights? How could that possibly help them?

:evil:

I've got nothing against blind people and I think they deserve as much happiness as the next person, possibly moreso, but there are some things they just shouldn't be allowed to do. Like drive or hunt "animals". Anyone running a pool on how long it'll be before somebody gets shot because of this?
