Hooo boy... yeah, he's right, kinda. 

But the dynamics are more along the lines of tricking animals, birds, and fish into situations where they can get get killed, so you can eat and collect skins

The  " doesn't know how to "  part is a bit of an overreach.

I've met these people, the same ones that are shocked to find out food isn't made in the back of grocery stores. :biggrin:

True story, a friend of mine brought her new boyfriend up to my property to try his hand at mining.

(First strike) slipped on the bank and fell in the creek, came out whining about his $200.0 shoes getting wet.

(Second strike) "Why are there so God Damned many bugs in the air?" (swatting at invisible bugs)

(Third strike) was when he chastised her for picking wild black berries, said they need to come from a grocery store to be safe to eat.

She quietly stopped picking, and politely said she thought it was time to go.

If it's even possible to get a fourth strike, this was it.
During the trek out, he bitched all the way back up the mountain (half mile walk, 500' elevation increase) about being wet, hot, dirty, thin air, dust, rough road, sun burn, chafing, hungry, thirsty, dirt in his eye, and on and on and on....

She called me that evening and asked if I knew any real men I could set her up with. :lol:

Yes, this guy would starve in the wild. Oh, and we was writing a book on the true story of JFK's assassination.. He claimed to be a renowned writer/researcher. :rolleyes:

The city-born and -bred would die off pretty quickly in a catastrophe, I think. There's a difference between being smart enough to "trick" critters, or even being willing to do it, and being ABLE to do it, KNOWLEDGEABLE in the crafts required. The "doesn't know how to" would prove to be everything, actually. It takes longer to learn to fish or hunt than it takes to starve to death.

And what's ironic, was the "self acclaimed" writer was in his 20s, born 2 decades after his assassination.
As if the kid could find new evidence at the time. :rolleyes:

I wasn't putting much stock in Duck Dynasty's shenanigans. 

Fishing is usually the worst case of amateurs sometimes making serious anglers look bad.   My sister's like that... just drops a line in and the biggest of the biggest swarm all-over-it, practically placing the hook in their mouth themselves.

Deer-hunting's next.  The line spreads out, and the buck finds the guy who's hunted the least

Amateurs fall for tricks though.  And for phoney stories about where the game and fish might be.

I'm not certain this is fairly attributable to Duck Dynasty, though I've never seen the show.
But in the event "SHTF", the comment is true where the rubber meets the road..

If one hasn't the skills for survival, testing them in a disaster is sure to end badly.

But it's also like saying... If your woman doesn't know how to cook/prepare fish or game, you have a boyfriend.

It's still a great t-shirt though.  I'd wear this one too:

Gotten the licence to hunt, because I need it to own guns. But it's too expensive to hunt in Norway without committing to a hunt team or owning large territories of hunting ground if you don't have it as your hobby. I guess I will trade you my fish and crabs :tounge:

I can fish, clean and cook them.  Have never been hunting or cleaned game, but can cut up a whole chicken in quick time.

Not sure how I would fare, but was a girl scout and scout leader, have camped out a lot with scouts, family and friends.  I think I would survive.

Hey Dori, I too was a girl scout for many years and an adult leader..... great organization until the Left gained control..... :scared:

I can fish and hunt...... and I make a mean venison steak!  I grew up watching my Dad gut our dear and helping to butcher it in the kitchen!  Camping was a natural part of our life.

Yeah, girl scouts went down the tubes when the feminists got in there.  As near as I can tell, the boy scouts seem to have been able to hold it together, at least the ones I see in my area.  They're really active and still do all the same things they used to.   
I tell people to check out the Heritage Girls and avoid the Girl Scouts. 

Camping was always a great family activity.  You could get away for three days or three weeks without spending a lot of money, and everyone seemed to enjoy it.

Most kids love nature too. That's why it's so important for them to experience it. I remember as a little kid, some of our most fun adventures were catching tadpoles, fireflies, bugs and lizards.

With agenda 21 though they will all be taken on eco-friendly aerial blimp trips across forest for a guided narrated tour of the wilds as all human population will be enclosed to specific urban areas. Of course if they ever were to enter the wilds on foot they would be incarcerated or sent to reeducation camps  :tounge:

You think that was a joke, but it wasn't that far off target.

There are places where you can only observe a "Rain Forest" from high overhead cable cars!  No joke!  They will not allow anyone to set foot into the forest.

I wonder how long the average leftist would live if he had to parachute into a rain forest and live only on what he could forage. My guess would be he'd starve to death just trying to get a cell-phone connection to his lawyer, to sue for free meals and a chauffeured ride to safety.

I was raised "farm' girl.  Dad would hunt pheasant every season and fish year round. (Probably to get peace and quiet away from us kids.)  I remember every summer my Dad would butcher the old chickens for food.  Our job was to dunk them in the tubs of hot water and remove the feathers and pin feathers.  We had real chores that included feeding, gathering eggs and cleaning the chicken coop. 

I too was a brownie and then a girl scout.  I learned a lot from that group.  Eventually I became citified and those things were a distant memory until I met Solar.  Now my hands are back in the dirt and my feet walk mountains.  I love my life.

My wife was also a farm girl. I live in a farming county. One of the last jobs on this planet that I would ever do is clean a chicken coop or shovel out the milking stations. (*shudder*)

There are advantages to being "small".   Although my step brother and sisters (on occasion) had to help with the Spring clean up of the cow barn.  Alas I was not big enough to help with that job.

Nothing against TV-outdoorsmen, but let's see 'em skin a dozen-or-so muskrat every day in-season, with a coon or a mink thrown-in.  Then play poker in a basement, surrounded by over a hundred drying pelts hung upsidedown.

Or standing in a lake at prime fish-biting time, knowing you'll have to remove 5-to-10 leeches from your legs with salt-'n-butane after you've caught breakfast

Just some idle musings...

Don't imitate a whippoorwill-call at dusk, because the the culprit will keep you up all night.
