A THF member sent this email to my boss today. To whom it may concern: Cable Smith is a complete moron. He is incredibly biased and has very limited experience hunting and fishing. Cable thinks that he knows everything about bird hunting, but did not even know what a banded duck was. Cable did not even know the difference between a high fence and low fence in regards to deer hunting. Hunting has come under fire by many vocal organizations in recent years. The last thing we need is to have an uninformed radio personality making a feeble attempt to support hunting. On Texas Hunting Forum he has been repeatedly ripped apart by numerous members for his opinions and beliefs. I would also expect someone who works for a Christian radio station to refrain from cussing; however, Cable is very fond of a few choice words. Please follow the link to see his latest online screw up. http://www.texashuntingforum.com/ubbthreads/showflat.php/Cat/0/Number/620263/page/0/fpart/1/vc/1Who posts online to tell people he feeds the ducks that he shoots to his dog....................Cable Smith http://www.texashuntingforum.com/ubbthre...true#Post613180Please remove this idiot from the hunting/fishing radio show. a few things just to clarify. 1) I know what a banded duck is- the post was made in attempt at humor. I apologize if some individuals didn't pick up on that. 2) I never once claimed to be an expert on any of these topics. I didn't know I would be hosting this show when I joined THF. I am glad I did though and felt comfortable enough to ask people on here questions- half of the post made on here are questions seeking answers from those with more experience. 3)I have made some good friends on here and recieved tons of valuable info and enjoyed everyone's pics and stories. 4) I am as pro-hunting as anyone on here- didn't say the most knowledgeable or experienced because I am clearly not, but I am passionate. I too my knowledge haven't and never would say anything over the air to make us look bad. I am going to read this email over the air next week. The indivual who sent is welcome to call in to the show. I appreciate and respect if thats how you feel. I am not begging for you guys to listen, just thought some of you may enjoy hearing some of the guests and learning from their knowledge and tales just as I am. Either way. I love all you guys. I apologize to you CrazyHorse for calling you an arse. Good luck this weekend Cable

What radio program; what time does it air; what station? I want to tune in!

interesting, I wonder if they will take ownership of it. you probably should watch some of the cussing, that wouldn't be the best thing to do if in fact your show is on a Christian radio station, as a Christian all we do should be Christian, if at Church or work or hunting or fishing. I know God and I have been having some talks lately about my poor shooting this year you think he would at least let me hit a few of them. Cable I hope you have success on your show.

Bingo Sethfish. And I'll lift you up in prayer about your shooting if you do the same for me.

Boo... Thats pretty spineless to try to get someone fired due to them having a different view than you do.
Thats the thing about life, nobody gets out alive.

Sometimes I just don't understand, and this one takes the cake.My apologies to Cable, no one should have that happen to them, especially from someone on here. That's low.

Giardia is not fun by itself, but when you pick up some of the lunch truck sushi in Dallas which is ecoli tuna roll with a hint of salmonela, (spelling I think ), they offset each other a provide a wonderful, picnic lunch.

That's funny...but Giardia was not fun, either time i had it, nor was Shigella. But a great weight loss plan.

Cable, not to defend the email, but remember Jim Zumbo. Years of Books, magazine articles, interviews, firearm manufacturers rep, etc. One paragraph of comment about AR15s having no place as hunting rifles and the status of his carreer was changed overnight. Your a much smaller fish swimming in the same water as Zumbo, so even more so than him you have to be very careful how you "publicly" stand on issues IMHO. Otherwise expect such emails. Again though I actually agreed with more of Crazyhorse's thoughts on the issue that than I did of yours, I feel it is a shame someone felt the need to call your boss based on your feelings on it. You should expect such things from your "listeners" anytime you make a public stance far from center on any issue. But on the forum, we should be able to have friendly debates no matter how strong each side feels on an issue. Including not call names, and certainly not negatively interfear with each others lives outside of this forum. Yea that email was not cool. John

I like this part of your post
problem is that lots of times people start taking it personal, they dont know how to handle disagreement and keep things civil..."my way or the hi-way"
Attention rickym, this is not a troll post, just a good hearted fun type of post

Wow... I can't believe this person can be so passionately angry about something posted on a web forum! I mean really.. What motivates someone to take that kinda action? Like others have said, this is supposed to be a place to share hunting experiences, ask questions, and express opinions. It's downright embarassing to think that as a hunter I fall into the same general category as the person who did this. I've never seen anything like it.. I wish this person would man up and at least try to justify his stupidity..
Cable, I'm sure your boss, being a manager in the radio industry, probably has experience with this type of stuff. I appreciate you posting details about your show and asking for opinions and feedback from other hunters. I think it shows that you are passionate about your job. Keep it up!
