There, I'm intuiting. In the latter, I guess he is an ass hole, whether I call him one directly or indirectly. I am curious why you are concerned with that, though. An assuming mind probably wants to know.

I don't get it, either. Killing for food is one thing; killing for sport is sick.

There is nothing wrong with trophy hunting as long as the meat from the animal is also consumed or if the animal, like the so called Cecil the lion, is a threat to humans or live stock.

That being said the NJ bear hunt is NOTa trophy hunt. It is a culling to reduce the extreme overpopulation of bears in the north west counties. The 546 bears taken were taken in an area smaller than most counties in larger states. NJ bears have been causing havoc on livestock and even killed a young man two years ago. The fatality occurred about two miles from my front door.

All this emotional whining by animal rights activists is absurd and moronic. These people need to get a life. With Christians being beheaded in the ME; illegal aliens (including our Muslim enemies)overrunning our country, black on black crime running rampant in the inner city, abortions killing millions of unborn children, et.al. these people are bemoaning the fact that a hunter legally killed a crippled suffering black bear. As I said they need to get a life.

Bottom line is they are against all hunting because people that hunt do not fit into their left wing world view. They are using this to appeal to emotion instead of recognizing that sport hunting is the most effective and economical (in fact it generates revenue) means of wildlife management in existance.

Like I said, I'm not against hunting. But I know people that just like to kill and stuff animals. But they have every right to do what they want. I'm not trying to stop them, just giving my opinion. I eat meat! If I needed to survive I would have no problem eating what I kill, although I would need a hunter to teach me the skills of skinning and filleting. I guess I am one of those weird guys that cares more about animals than people. I stop and try to pick up every dog on the street that I see. Sometimes they have tags, or chip and go home, If we can't find the owner they go through our training and go to a good home. If they are not adoptable they spend their life at my little ranch.
