eh? if you like the picture ignore the title. personally i think hunting is for
hunter-gatherers aka neanderthals. but that just my opinion toady.

Hmm, try relating that opinion to the millions upon millions of people who came
before us. Had early man adopted your perspective this conversation would never
have taken place.
Growth as humans, moving forward as a race is important to our survival, but so
is keeping in touch with the primordial side of the creatures we are just as
surely.
While I haven't hunted in years, I take no issue with those that do anymore than
with those who choose not to. However, your position seems agenda-ish driven,
which always gets me goin.
One of the wisest things I ever heard another say was "I'm never as
concerned about who's right as I am about what's right.". Unless one
claims some morality issue relevant to hunting, which doesn't realistically hold
much water, then poising oneself against it in calling those who do
"neanderthals" seems more like a judication based upon some thought
about being inherently correct in your own thoughts.
Best of luck with that

Come on Kim, that is total crap, you don't keep in touch with your primordial
side by hiding in camo with infrared sights on a high power rifle. Hunting is
macho BULLSHIT for losers who need to validate by killing something unable to
defend itself.
If you want to hunt, strip down to your loincloth, take this stick and this
stone, ok, let's see who wins. Now you are in touch with your primordial side
because you are actually at risk yourself.

got no chance understanding that i'm afraid mr kim. if you were really smart
you'd be able to write it in lay terms a lesser mind like my own could
understand. i don't feel there is any justification for inflicting needless
suffering on another animal for sport and self-gratification, that's all. many
people obviously do enjoy it but i can't see how they can be insensitive to the
animal's suffering (hence terming them neanderthals). i shouldn't have bunched
in the hunter-gatherers with these SportsMen though; that was a bit caffeinated.

I have to agree there is no "sport" or "primative
connection" involved here. As said above, go after the animal with a
something as simple as a knife or a spear or a snare and do it because you NEED
it to survive and then you'll have my ok. Otherwise it's just a pansy way to
try to feel like a "man".

i don't have any problem with someone who cares to kill a deer (we have federal
conservation measures in place to insure a future for most game). some people
prefer that musky "wild" taste (gag) to their meat.
But...if someone cares to kill animals for profit, heads, ivory, export, illegal
activities of any kind will be tazed in the nads every hour on the hour for the
rest of their lives!
have a nice day

You kill an elk with a spear, he's going to suffer for hours. One clean shot
to the heart with a high-powered rifle, he's dead before he hits the ground.
Same thing for Mexicans and Democrats. Shooting them is the only humane thing
to do, really. Otherwise, they over-populate the environment, eat all the food,
and then starve to death.
