[100% veg*n ] wabbit season, duck season, wabbit season...

[Guest guest]

I have to say, while I don't believe in killing anything unnessesarily, and

drunken hunters piss me off severely, I am a bit offended. The majority of

hunters are responsible and are worthy of much more respect than the

sheltered and ignorant people who buy their meat from inhumane factory farms.

(I wonder how badly you'll get flamed for saying that.)

 

I get your point about the hunted animals having better lives (until the

point where they are killed.) But the hunters are killing animals for

fun. For *fun*. And hence I don't respect them much.

Some hunters do only hunt for sport and that is just horrible, it's

purposessless death. My dad is one of these people and it drives me insane. I

can tell you though, many people hunt for food as well. I've been hunting

(many years ago) and the game I killed was essentially all the meat I ate

after that.

I'm not attempting to justify hunting, just to point out that those who hunt

their food are more deserving of respect than those who purchase it and give

no thought to the effects of their decisions.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I have absolutely no sympathy

with yours. Hunting for sport is deplorable. However, hunting to put food

into the pot cuts no ice with me either. It's unnecessary. Pardon me, but

I don't give a flying fuck if this hunitng of yours was at the North pole

and the options were hunt seals or starve. To me the answer to this

scenario would be to move somewhere else.

 

Regards,

Stevie.

While I can see the point you are trying to make, I still do not agree

with it. The world is full of alternatives to eating meat. This may well

be an exercise akin to banging a head against a brick wall, but the way

forward I feel would be education for the hunters. While there are some

who could be reasonaed with, I also believe there are people out there who

will want to hunt and nobody will tell them otherwise. It's a tough world

we live in.

 

Regards,

Stevie.
