It's a repost
Also I can't imagine the women who do this are college graduates, there probably strippers or prostitutes.
I saw this too in german TV, they said the "hunters" pay like $10000 and the poor victims get $1000 for doing it and $2000 if they dont get hit.
Anyway your laws are fubared if that is legal. This is even more low than anything i have ever heard before. Naked woman mimicking deer to be killed. But I dont wonder about anything in the US anymore. Not after some 35% of respondents here at ATOT would even go "hunting" for humans. And also in the light of the latest political events it seems clear Americans seem to have lost their grasp on Ethics, Morals, Human Rights - they would do anything for $$, It should not be "in God we trust" on the bank notes but rather "Dear Dollar Allmighty - our Savior"

How does one come up with our laws are fubared if these is legal. Is germany that repressive? Think about it, these women, by freedom of choice, decide to do this. Whether you like it or not, does not matter. It's called personnel freedom. I suggest you look into it. If these women were not doing this on their on free will then we'd have a problem. But thats not the case here. This country would suck if other people decide what is best for you, although that appears to be the way we are heading.

Well I would not call that repressive but protective.
A) it emulates shooting at human beings
B) it is humiliating to the woman and definately gives mentally defective men (cant think of any sane person participating in that) the impression it was ok what they are doing there.
C) maybe they do it out of free will, but how free are u if u need the money. Not everything that is out of free will is/should be allowed.
We had a case here were a guy wanting to suicide, out of free will met with his murderer to be butchered and eaten, It was free will but the butcher is still a murderer (an especially sick one at that) and treated as such.
Child labor is prohibited too, the children might work out of the free will to earn money - the essence of what I was saying is: free will can easily exploited if the person in question is in a needy situation - that still doesnt make it right.
Same thing with prostitution, while prostitution is legal, certain aspects there and how most women end up there has absolutely nothing to do with free will even though legally it is their choice....
Hope u understand what I am getting at. Also my outrage is easily underatndable if u consider the the stance towards violence, weapons and killing in general here (for example compared to texan laws about "defending" your property)
Besides, our Constitution says it clearly: "Human dignity is inviolable" - so that has nothing to do with being repressive

Hunting for Bambi: Declared a Hoax

'Hunting Bambi' Safari Was a Hoax
2 hours, 4 minutes ago Add U.S. National - AP to My Yahoo!
LAS VEGAS - A promoter who offered to take men on "Hunting for Bambi" safaris in which they could hunt down naked young women with paintball guns admitted that it was a hoax designed to sell videos, the mayor says.
Michael Burdick found himself in the crosshairs of women's groups after he told a Las Vegas TV station that he was selling reservations to men willing to pay $5,000 to $10,000 for the safari experience.
Las Vegas officials investigated and found that the purported safaris were nothing but a hoax to promote the "Hunting for Bambi" videos that Burdick sells. The videos show nude women being hunted by men.
The footage in the videos "was all staged," Mayor Oscar Goodman said Thursday. "There were actors and actresses and there wasn't even the real shooting of paint balls."
Burdick did not immediately respond Friday to messages from The Associated Press, but he had previously insisted that the hunts were real.
John Redlein, an assistant city attorney, said Burdick offered the hunts at high prices to discourage bookings, and told investigators his Internet site could not even accept credit card charges in the amount necessary to reserve a hunt.
"He's told us in great detail ... that it's a scam to sell videotapes," Redlein said.
A report on Burdick's "Hunting for Bambi" first aired July 10 on KLAS. Burdick staged a paintball hunt for the station's camera crew, city officials said.

I thought something was funny when it wouldn't accept my credit card on his website...
Yeah, right! If I want to shoot naked women w/ paintball guns I'll just pay them myself, and save $2500 in the process. If I get a hit, I'd save 4g's! I knew it was fake, who would pay that much when the women admitted they would do it for $1K each.
But seriously, I would never do that... random drive by paintball shootings are much more fun and you don't have to pay anybody if you are good.

Yes, I'm kidding AND I'm glad it was a hoax, unfortunately the video is real though.
