But they get a photo of themselves with their foot on a big dead
animal while holding a high caliber rifle. Might not be so easy in
Iraq.
However, all they gotta' do is go down to the local meat-packing
plant....
Maybe the head of an Angus calf wouldn't be quite the same, but I
doubt their buds would know it wasn't from the charge of a rabid,
"Lesser Angus" water buffalo.
Takes a lot of balls to stand in front of a charge like that.

That's it...in this case the fenced in area was small and the hunter pays
money so he can walk right up to some of the prey.
They also had some pretty exotic animals..such as tigers, lions etc wqhere
the great white hunters had a safe place in a bunker or platform and the
cats were let out of a cage to be gunned down before they could getaway.
One case had what looked like a mountain goat standing at a fence with an
arrow sticking out of it's back.
It seemed to sense what was coming and starred out through the links. The
'hunter walked up, fully clothed in camo, to within
20 feet or so and shot another arrow into the animal.
If these guys are that desperate to kill...send them to Iraq.

If you are not eating tofu and wearing plastic shoes you don't have standing in
this fight. Is it wrong to kill the billions of chickens and cows we eat too?
Is the person who hires a hit man morally superior to the hit man?
I am not a hunter but I do understand the need to control the population of
some species, particularly eastern white tail deer, the most deadfly animal in
North America. (kill about 200 people a year in the US) and cause millions of
dollars in crop damage.

heh heh trees kill more people than that. We need to take extreme measures against
this deadly species!

We mow'm down by the billions.

I was looking over this thread again and I saw the fishing analogy. I know
people may catch the target fish and release but all the bait dies.
If you are really a PETA person the bait is the real victim of extreme cruelty.

There is quite a difference in eating chickens, born, raised, killed
and processed in factories than in killing and annihilating a wild
species of animal or fish. I fish, and sometimes take one or two home
to eat. I don't hunt. Seems different to me, can't explain why, but I
don't feel as bad killing a fish as I do a deer. The deadliest animal
in North America is certainly not the whitetail deer, it's the urban
human. Far more people are killed by other people than any and all
other animals yearly. Most by firearms. Most by firearms that belonged
to someone else and was either borrowed, or stolen. So much for not
wanting gun control, huh?
