Do you hunt with guns

You didn't read the entire thread then, I don't simply hunt for sport. The animal is used as food.

I agree with survival of the fittest but only if the animal being hunted is gonna be eaten or used in some way.

Not like people who kill deer just for the sake of putting it on your mantle piece along with a black polar bear and baby panda awehuhs

Not about that. I don't care about the fact that it's a life and all that, it's the fact you people enjoy killing something. Hunters wouldn't enjoy it if it wasn't a living breathing animal, pretty disturbing.
I was just about to say the same thing, I can't see why a sane human would find killing something enjoyable.

You could purchase it other ways that are better for the animal.

So you are no better for sport or food.

I tagged along with my friend when I was a kid and watched his dad go pheasant hunting. Anyway, the dad never shot a thing that day, and I was secretly hoping he wouldn't.

So, pay to have it die by a hammer to the head rather than shooting it for free?

Yeah, I've read the entire thread. Presumably though you do actually enjoy the feeling you get when you kill something? I'd personally rather pay a bit of extra money, so I wouldn't have to see the creature die.

I wasn't aiming my opinion at you in the first place, I wasn't even aware you hunted. If you hunt for food, I actually think that is much better than buying meat, as you are actually relying on yourself rather than corporations.

I wouldn't say I get pleasure from it, I would say that it's not amazingly terrible. shrug

I'm all up for relying on corporations, let them do all the dirty work that I don't want to.

Individual differences, I suppose. There are worse types of hunting, fox hunting for example; a lot of people do it in my county, I just can't get my head around it.

If you must kill for sport i think it should be a law that you do it humanely

Actually. Isnt it a law already hmm

You ended a life, you stopped a animal from seeing its young etc.

You ruined a life basically, animal or not.

That doesn't make you feel at all bad?

I agree, plus if everyone hunted for their own food, it would be a disaster is so many ways.

And I disagree, if I want to do the dirty work myself then what should it matter to anyone else?

I try to support capitalism as little as i can, although it's very hard to do so living in London.

Hmmm...

I tend to think killing animals is wrong anyway lol.

The only thing I'd ever hunt is cow and chicken since that's about the only meat I ever eat. So, basically it would be like shooting apples in a barrel, not so much fun.
