Of course they are offended, animals are to be hunted down with dogs while following them on horses.

Anyone who complains that still eats meat is a total hypocrite.

One of the most recent comments on that page is some idiot saying that cows & hogs are killed with more dignity than game animals. This guy needs a mental check:
“I’m completely against killing animals for FUN! People going on about the fact cows, pigs etc are killed, since when are they killed like this for ‘sport’? Thats for food & atleast they’re killed with a little bit more dignity, so please get your facts right. It’s digusting to be proud of this cruelty. What exactly did these animals do to deserve to killed in such a barbaric way? You girls should be ashamed of yourselves. Horrific behaviour.

Not to worry, in a few more years his daughter will be forced to wear a burka and won’t be able to see those pictures – not to mention she won’t be allowed to learn to read.

I’m still chapped my ancestors left Scotland for their roundabout trip to North America. They had a thriving cottage industry killing spineless English and left before the job was completed.

Envy is an altogether terrible thing.

Just_jenna adds: “Every living thing has just as much right to live as we do. Enough said!”
She says, wearing leather shoes, carrying a leather purse, and after eating her pepperoni pizza or chicken sandwich. She buys her meat from the grocery store, where no animals were killed!
We all know it is much more humane to kill an animal by driving a spike through his head than shooting it!

“They had a thriving cottage industry killing spineless English and left before the job was completed.”
Ummm, thriving, not so such. The Scots got their asses handed to them. That’s why: 1. the English invented kilts and made the Scots wear them, 2. the Scots speak English, 3. The English took your rock at sword point and put it under their chair, 4. you are here and not digging in the dirt with a stick in Scotland.
Come on, unc. These comments are the comments of silly birds (girls) with stuffed teddy bears.
As well, bambiism is much advanced in the UK. Even the males in the UK get all sappy about killing critters.

The UK is ripe for invasion and plunder. I say we do it now.

I don’t agree with trophy hunting, either. Kill to eat, eat what you kill — no more than that. Living things are not targets.

People who “trophy” hunt are participating in the conservation of wildlife by buying sporting arms which contribute Pittman-Robertson funds to wildlife ( game and non-game ) conservation as well as paying license fees that support state wildlife programs.
In my state, 100% of the state Division of Wildlife is received directly or indirectly from sportsman, but more than half is spent on non-game wildlife. Some of those funds from what are essentially “trophy” hunters.

Is the fee thirty pieces of silver?
Sorry to make the point that way. I am not a vegetarian but I don’t think animals should be killed for fun.

@nk
You better stay out of south central North Dakota then because we kill hundreds of prairie dogs a day here for the “fun”of it.
Deer, antelope and pheasant we kill for food & fun but I’m sure you disapprove of that as well because we have “fun” killing what we eat.

nk –
You realize that herds have to be managed, yes? A certain number of animals in the herd must be killed to prevent overpopulation and the resultant starvation, which is a much more painful and prolonged death than a bullet.
Sport hunters pay big bucks to go on trophy hunts. So, animals that would need to be killed anyway are providing a good living for the people who support such hunts. True in Africa, true in North America as well.
Hey, that’s cruel though, we say. It’s way better to poison them or have game wardens kill them for a wage, or to let them starve to death over a period of several weeks in winter.
They’re going to die anyway. At least this way they are put to good use.
Anyway, what do you think happens to the meat on those hunts? You seriously believe that the guides just leave it to rot after hacking off the trophy portion? Not likely.
I think it’s cool as hell that these girls went on these hunts, myself.

Oh, I love being an American.

I am just glad we line in the US where those girls can be role models instead of Arab countries where they have to wear bags over their head.
