thats so MURICA
SaVillaHg
That's some serious 'murican attitude there. So much freedom, so little time

My brother used to shoot mistletoe out of trees without damaging the mistletoe, so I'm wondering how great of a 'sharpshooter' this guy is.

Good guy with a gun.

Saving the eagle wasn't enough. Im sure the media needed to spice it up with "moweing down".
Hotdoghat
"Mowing down the branches" is now my new favorite sexual innuendo
Nearlyburly
Nice!
DoctorMantisTobogganMD
But. The rope. Wouldn't that eagle just fall to the ground still hanging from the branch and be crushed?
d0o0o0d
He shot the rope, not the branch.
brakeurself
It said "mowing down the branches with his rifle"
QuantumEntangler
Did he just free freedom
KitMcGiggles
He let freedom wing.
whitty420
These are the moments I wish I could favorite a comment
KellyCrazyCatLadyinTraining
Yes, I think he just freedomed.
Zixtank
It's super effective :D
cptkipard
What he actually did was give a retard bird the chance to spread its retarded genes. Evolution is a cruel bitch.
caramelballoffur
It was a human'1s fault that it ended up like that though
cptkipard
What's your point?
JRedBear
Yes, Yes he did and used a gun to do it. Murica!
Boredoom
AND with a rifle.
facedesk
Freedom is never free.
EchoThisTrance
I love this comment
bobloblaww
YUP!!
Grarius
No he freed eagle
caramelballoffur
The named the eagle "freedom" after rescuing it....
44no44
He freed 'im.
averyawesomeusername
Plot Twist: he was a stormtrooper that tried to kill the eagle.
Nearlyburly
LMAO!

I think there was a more safe and secure way.. -Democrats. Go merica
jab30
There probably was. What's your political point?
YeetYoteYeetedYoted
Savin' animals the American way. WITH MAH GUN!
r2linad2
You don't get anymore 'Merican than this.
CaptainPickleFarts
Am I the only one seeing the issue with shooting a rifle in the air? It'd be one thing if it was a shotgun, but this is poor gun safety
Feanor19
Buckshot scatters do you not see an issue with that maybe hitting the bird? He was in the country and used a .22.
ChristnaBots
Good Guy with a Gun Saves Freedom!
TheTwoTonNinja
They actually did name the eagle Freedom later.

Aeliza22
I feel like there had to be a way to do this that would have been less terrifying for the bird.
MightyCape
Ninja stars
Aeliza22
Knife throwing even.
valaja
If he tried to cut the rope with a throwing knife, some knives would just hit the rope and fall, injuring the bird.
Aeliza22
I think we were both joking about the knives and ninja stars. Something like a fire truck or someone to climb the tree with clippers.
valaja
Oooh, okay. I thought ninja stars were a joke, but wasn't so sure about your comment.

DeathStarWasAnInsideJob
Using a made in China Typ 58?!?! Not American!
MettalViking
Freedom doesn't discriminate!
DamianMadian
Using things made in China is the most American thing.
HypnoButler
Or far more American than we care to admit.

Ow

That sounds like something that would happen in China.

He checked his firing angle to make sure any misses would not accidentally harm anyone.
NubbleDelimigator
A shotgun would have been both safer and more effective for this.

Thank you!!!! "4th commandment: know your target and what's beyond it."

"You think someone is over there?" "Nah, nobody would want to be over there, that's where the bullets will come down!"
HomoLussac
But nobody mentions that it took 150 shots to hit the branch.
ColorMeDepressed
150 to cut through it.
xpxaxbxlxox
This was the first thing I thought of
TheScientistFormerlyKnownAsRick
But wouldn't cutting the branch just make the eagle sink to the ground with the heavy branch? He didn't shoot the rope, did he?
SeRaQt
Given the nature of this being a 'gun' related incident. I commend the actions taken to rescue this unfortunate eagle. Well done sir.
JohnSmallberries8326
Highest testosterone levels ever recorded. Doctors amazed.
Jusmar
Which means he'd be bald and overdosing on estrogen...so having mood swings and man boobs. Sounds like a winner
lvluffin
Thats a golden eagle and that would take hours.
AstartesLibrarius
Depends on how thick the branch is, how accurate a shot you are, and how big the bullet you're firing is.
imagurk
And how much you know about the phloem, xylem, and cambium, and the cellulose vs. lignin makeup and internal stresses of reaction wood.
CthulhuLovesMeThisIKnow
Took him 90 minutes.
lvluffin
Sounds about right, several hundred rounds as well, potentially. Lmao thanks for this
HarpMKII
150 rounds
marcusosappus
Bald eagle. Saw it on the news last night.
Fairdinkums
Would have taken half a second if he had a barret.
Radix865
And possibly killed a few people in the next state.
icookfoodandfightfire
it was a bald eagle, it just wasn't mature yet and hasn't reached the molt where his white feathers have come in yet
NateintheNorth
Still young and has his full head of hair.
Eggbutts
*cries baldly*
LianRosie
Yeh, it takes 5 years for a Bald Eagle to get their adult plumage that they're easily recognised for
Mercutiowolf
Not if he was one of those collectors packing serious firepower.
lvluffin
I dont care if youre shooting 50cal rounds, youre not about to cut anything down with it in a timely fashion.
Mercutiowolf
This is my wish, my dream. And I'm taking it back. I'm taking it all back.
lvluffin
Mercutiowolf, patent for the new 5.56/7.62 NATO Centerfire Fully Automatic Belt-fed Assault Chainsaw, rated for trees over 4" & home defense

The NRA loves him, but Obummer wants him out!
CommonSenseIsNotSoCommon
Go look demolitionranch in YouTube. He cuts a telephone pole in half in no time with a semi auto AR
comacomacomacomachameleon
The guy was using a bolt-action .22.
EmoBacon
that's one of the most american things i've seen today

There were no MacDonald's involved. Not as american as you think.

Oh. So it is. To be honest I don't even read titles unless my attention is drawn to it by the post.
