Possible Sasquatch encounter happened last night.

[nhbbear]

are you sure about that?

well, I studied howling monkeys in Central America 20 years ago-white peckers. Chimps-white, gorillas not sure.

So you heard something splashing in the water and assume it's a bigfoot and not just some rocks coming loose on the steep hill above you? And if you had been armed you would have blindly fired rounds off into the woods because rocks were falling into the water near you?




I love how people go from saying how they don't know what something is to then making rash assumptions of what it is. I'm going to add you to my forum retard list. You most definitely do not need to go out to the woods again armed while you're acting like a hysterical little pussy just because you heard splashing from rocks not thrown at you.

alright! I made that list. I am 1 million percent sure that the rocks were being thrown and not rolling down the hill. I saw one and it was flying about ten feet above my head. Not to mention there were five to six rocks that hit all around me. And yes, had I been armed, I would have fired off some shots. If any one of those big rocks had hit me, it would have killed me-especially with the force that they were launched with. Assuming it was a person, I would have every legal right to defend myself with deadly force based upon those circumstances.

Do you think I care that you called me a pussy? Not in the least, Internet tough guy. If you are too stupid to read between the lines-to see the humor in this, well I feel sorry for your parents to have birthed such an imbecile. But rocks were thrown at me. It was a secluded lake in the middle of nowhere with no one else in the area the last three times I went there. Not a soul. So, you can piss of anytime now.

I believe you bear.

thanks, brother. How have you been?

 

[nhbbear]

"Had I been armed, i would have had my gun out and would have fired shots to end the attack."

I'm glad I'm not the only one worried about that. How are you going to explain shooting some kids pulling a prank (if that's what it was)? "Ummmmmm, ya, I heard some rocks and saw some land in the water by me and thought BigFoot was attacking me so I shot blindly a bunch of times into the bushes.".

I'm pretty sure 1 of the main rules of firearms is to ALWAYS be aware of your target AND what's behind your target. But what do we know......he's the LEO.

due to the size of the rocks, and the force at which they were being launched through the air, any one of them could have killed me if it made contact. No question in my mind about that. And kids, adults, Sasquatch, or anything else responsible for that was using lethal instruments to threaten me. I would have no issues at all defending my actions. Not a doubt in my mind. I would be 100% justified in the use of deadly force to protect myself from lethal force that was being used against me without cause or provocation.

 

[nhbbear]

Lmao

Rocks fall in water

>>>attack

nope. Not rocks simply falling into the water. There would have been noise from them rolling down the hill. There was no noise, just large splashes. And I saw one before it hit. I saw the size of it. About the size of a basketball and it was flying with a lot of force. Whatever/whomever was responsible would have killed me had one of those rocks made contact. Yeah, I made this with a big helping of sarcasm and intended humor, but I have my doubts that a person could have launched such big rocks with that amount of force. I have my doubts that someone could get to the area that they were coming from. I have serious doubts that anyone would go through that much trouble and wait for two hours for me to walk back through there. And i have doubts that someone would use lethal force without cause. The only thing I am 100% sure of is that those rocks were thrown and they would have killed me.

Owl mimicry has been reported before in sighting reports. Below is a report made by a hunter in which he describes hearing what sounded like owls preceding an encounter.

I have never heard as many owls as I have heard the past two months since I started fishing again this late at night. And these owls did sound “off” but I am not suggesting the owl sounds were related. It was just the only other noise or evidence of animal activity.

I should also mention that there is a duck at that lake that has followed me every single time I have been there. It stays with me the whole time, quacking and messing up the fishing. Last night, the duck did not go with me. Maybe nothing, but it struck me as odd after replaying the incident over and over. There has hardly been any moments that this has not been completely at the front of my thoughts.

 

[nhbbear]

But that's not what he said. He said "Had I been armed, i would have had my gun out and would have fired shots to end the attack." - He said he would have had is gun out and fired shots. If you read what he literally wrote literally, he said he would have fired shots......he didn't say he would wait to see something. He didn't say "IF" I saw something. He said in that moment he would have stopped the "attack" by shooting.

no, you’re right. I did say that. And I still maintain that. My life was in serious jeopardy, and I would have been justified in defending my life in these circumstances. I don’t care if it was just kids or any other person, I was under attack with lethal weapons. Any person in those circumstances would be justified in using deadly force to defend themselves. I would have done just that. Not sure if i would have fired into the water, or at the threat, but I would have been justified in doing so.

The whole Sasquatch phenomenon I find fascinating. Have there been any sightings in this area? Here's a link to a database:

not many. I think I counted four. In neighboring counties, there have been more. At least two of those reported encounters involved throwing rocks.

So you been harassed by a duck... and suddenly it no longer shows up?
Maybe it had a meeting or better things to do.
A wild animal not showing up is not really an indication of anything.

I find it terrifying that you own weapon based on this thread.

 

[nhbbear]

A broken clock is still correct twice a day I guess lol




Firing a gun into the air is also quite dangerous. Bullets don't disappear once they go as high as they can. They fall back down at lethal speeds. It's incredibly reckless to discharge a firearm at night in the woods at nothing in particular.



He didn't say the rocks were thrown at him. He said they were going into the water. Also the fact that the guy thinks a giant hidden ape species was throwing rocks "not at him" to scare him is pretty clear evidence that he's too hysterical and not in a proper frame of mind to make decisions about discharging a weapon.

That's as reckless and retarded as me discharging a gun in a hotel corridor because I heard a door shut and I assumed it was a fucking leprechaun on the attack.

No, I did say that rocks were being thrown at me. I saw one soaring through the air. And in no way is defending oneself against deadly force even remotely similar to firing shots down a hallway because I heard a noise. This was a deliberate attack, and i would have been killed had i been hit. I do not care at all about the safety of someone possibly trying to kill me. Not only was no concern shown for me, but exactly the opposite. Lethal force was being used against me. Had I been able to see who or what was doing it, i would have been justified in purposely shooting to kill.

He is a foul mother ducker and maybe it was in on it. And i don’t care if you think I am capable of owning a firearm.

Fuck you for blaming the duck!
I bet he was at the hospital visiting a sick friend.
Man you are a duck racist!

he was there, he just did not follow me this time. He swam out in the middle making noise but did not follow.

The plot thickens...

I for one have rethought this.
It was the duck that threw the stones

@IDL is watching!

Now that almost like seeing a big foot!

I wasn't there so I don't know....but I still think it's pretty reckless to fire a weapon at something or someone that is unknown. I wouldn't fire at something that I could not see, but that's just me. Perhaps a warning shot or yelling that you have a firearm would be better than firing blindly but I don't know the fear or frame of mind in that moment.

I still think you'd have a hard time explaining it to a jury if you shot a kid or a group of kids for throwing rocks. No matter how big those rocks were it comes across as a different kind of "deadly force" vs shooting a gun at something unknown. But maybe at that point you wouldn't have cared about the legality of it if you truly felt your life was in danger.

Weird how your story is similar to another sherdogger. I remember he mentioned the same thing, it was night and someone was throwing huge rocks at him and his buddies. The invention of the trebuchet must have scared the samsquanches to the boonies for sure.

That was me if I am not mistaken.

It happened twice at the same location about a month apart from each other at a lake that you can only hike to where no camping is allowed around midnight.

Big boulders were thrown into the lake while we were sitting at the edge talking. The tree line was a ways from the lake so the rocks (big ones by the sound of them) had to be thrown a good ways. The first time I yelled out that I had a gun to get their attention and left. The second time I yelled that out and we all left with me walking in the rear as the kids I was with were young. We were trailed out for a quarter of a mile by something big breaking things in the woods behind us and off trail.

At the end it got so close that I prepared for battle. I picked up a good sized rock and started yelling as loud as I could to scare it off and it stopped following us.

This was before the internet and I did not know WTF to think but a few years later I was surfing the net and read that this is very common Bigfoot type behavior with the rock throwing and the trailing out off trail and breaking things.

I looked up the location and there had been a sighting in the lake that is just another mile or so further up the trail than we were.....

Big rocks thrown at your head at night in the middle of the freaking woods is a threat to your life and anyone who goes out in the woods regularly like I do knows that you are taking your life into your hands to fuck with someone in the dark while out camping.
