Would you shoot an albino if it was illegal?

Default Would you shoot an albino if it was illegal?

Would anyone honstly not shoot a full albino big racked buck (like the one in the pic)just because your state says there illegal to shoot?
I know if it was illegal in my state i would shoot it in a heart beat, How can they tell me i cant shoot a deer based on its color... there rascist!

I think you mean if it was legal in your state you would shoot it. I would too. IA made it illegal. Dumb law as it is inferior and shouldn't be in the breeding gene pool.

Um, Don, an albino is not an inferior deer. It's simply missing the color pigment gene and nothing more. Two true abino deer could breed perfectly healthy "brown deer".

I would shoot one in a heart beat. I exclusively hunted a piebald doe a several years ago, passed up some really good bucks hoping for her. Saw her 5 times, closest was 50 yards. It's legal here in PA. I can understand the mystic behind them but making them illegal game seems foolish.

LOL, I know a guy who shot a beautiful 12 albino with a stick bow, he's successfully taken bucks since, lives a pretty good life too.

no i mean if it was illegal... i think its the stupidest law ive ever seen in my life, and all though ill probly never seen an albino in my life, i would still shoot one in a heart beat, illegal or not.

I'm colorblind...so yeah, I'd shoot it!

I'm not actually colorlind, but if I saw an albino, I would shoot it with my video camera and nothing else. Any piebald, on the other hand, would get an arrow in its vitals in a heartbeat! I think I would even shoot a button buck piebald.

If there is any spot of brown, its down.
