Heya Larry,
A kill is a sacrifical part of evolution. However, once the kill is made, then use it. Of course it takes hundreds of slaughtered cattle/sheep/elk/geese/chicked/turkey etc.. to feed an army. Does not bother me a bit.
What does bother me is some jack going into the woods and tempting fate for entertainment, and having a technological advantage.
The movie 'Legends of the Fall' comes to mind. Excellent movie, filmed out here in God's country, Montana is not that far away.
Also, 'Dances with Wolves' comes into play.
I am pro gun. I am not a tree hugger. But I'm very anti-userfriendly, and dislike folks who only have respect for themselves, and not of which is around them.
When fishing, which I bring home and cook for the family, I carry my snubby .357. The first 2 chambers are loaded with snake shot, the middle 2 are loaded with high power magnum hollow points, and the delay 2 are loaded with mid-power FMJ's. However, I don't shoot snakes just because they show up. I don't shoot coyote' because they come snooping, and I have yet to meet a bear. If I did, I doubt that I'd shoot him, give him some fish and ease off would probably do the trick.
