Bandera Texas Newspaper- What do deer think? Nugent knows

Editor’s note: this story about Ted Nugent, NRA supporter and hunting enthusiast, came to me via email. It’s probably apocryphal, but was too good to pass up.)

Ted Nugent, rock star and avid bow hunter from Michigan, was being interviewed by a French journalist and animal rights activist. The discussion came around to deer hunting.

The journalist asked, “What do you think is the last thought in the head of a deer before you shoot him? Is it, ‘Are you my friend?’ or is it ‘Are you the one who killed my brother’?”

Nugent replied, “Deer aren’t capable of that kind of thinking. All they care about is, ‘What am I going to eat next? Who am I going to screw next? And, can I run fast enough to get away? They are very much like the French.”

The interview ended.
