Nope, but I do agree with @Its-Mii-Will, Animals are meant to be hunted. Where do you think you get your Thanksgiving turkey???

Animals were meant to be hunted.

That's disgusting. Please, for my sanity, tell me that was a joke. A joke in poor, poor taste.

What do you want me to tell you? It's been done since the dawn of man.

Well I get my turkey from the store which means that it came from a turkey farm and not from the wild.

Anyways, no I've never been hunting.

Jesus is the only way.
It's OK to have an opinion. This ain't the Soviet Union you know.

Though you do have a valid point that hunting has had to be done to survive since the early days of man, it doesn't mean that animals were placed on this earth just to feed us humans. They have lives, too. /me finishes off his BLT

If you add me, I need to at least know you or I won't add you back.

Slaughtering and hunting are practically the same thing, only slaughtering is probably worse.

Well, it's not like animals understand death so...

Because starvation and disease for a massive portion of the deer population is so much kinder than a quick death for a few thousand. There's a reason the deer population needs to be kept in check.

Funny how this got so controversial

Sorry if I'm going on too long about this, but I think animals understand death quite well. That's the whole reason they develop methods of surviving and have survival instincts. Animals avoid other animals by means of camoflauge, traveling in packs, and other tricky methods because they don't want their predators to eat them.

Hee, controversy success.
90% of animals die by being eaten or generally just killed by some other species. I have no problem with humans doing that. Whilst cows still exist, I'll long for beefburgers and leather shoes.
But killing something for enjoyment having no intention of doing anything with the remains (and nailing its head to the wall doesn't really count) seems pointless and cruel. Sort of like if someone shot your dog for the sheer hell of it and nailed it to a shed. Can't imagine you'd be best pleased.

Well, sure. The thing is most hunters either eat the animal themselves or donate it to a group that processes it for the needy. I don't know many people (although they do exist) who shoot the animal and leave the carcass to rot on the ground.

Fox is right, no one does that.

Let's talk about Bullfighters!

That should be the next deliciously controversial question.
Do you like Bullfighting?

I won't get into a war of words. All I know is this: Every one of Earth's creatures, down to the tiniest insect has it's own life that's important to it. It deserves to live the natural course of it's existence. Will I kill something that's a threat to me or family? Yes. Animal and human alike. Otherwise, no. How would one of us feel if someone barged into our homes with a shotgun, intending to blow us away for sport? That's what we do. Except they have no weaponry to defend themselves. Anyway, I've said my pieces.

Let's attack aggressively, kupo! :D
