I’m not talking about the consumption of animals here, to be clear. What I’m talking about is spending days and a bunch of money planning to kill something, doing the killing, and skinning/eviscerating what was killed, and often displaying the stuffed corpse. Hunters and fishers refuse to admit they’re obsessed with taking pleasure in killing something.

Miss me with the “tradition” stuff, it’s just peer pressure from the dead and a fallacious argument. Don’t tell me it’s to eat, like I said, I’m not talking about the consumption here, so please prove to me you are literate by not bringing up that point. And don’t tell me you’re respectful to the animals you kill; I don’t believe the planning, stalking, and killing is a good way to show respect.

    That’s a lot of assumptions 😂 Almost all of which are completely wrong

    I don’t care if your butt hurt, stop whining and look inward

    You don’t need to kill, period.

      There were times my ex and I wouldn’t have eaten or suffered from malnutrition of it hadn’t been for hunting and raising our own food, vegetables included.

        and that is a natural, beautiful, reason to kill for food. I have utmost respect for those who have to hunt their food, not for obese idiots buying slabs of hormone filled trash that gives them cancer

      So you’re just going to put a live cow on a bun and call it a hamburger?

        You don’t need cow meat to live

            I like cocaine, but that’s not a reason to do it

      For less people to die and to preserve nature so it doesn’t fuck itself over, yes, it is necessary to kill.

      Unfortunately our ancestors replaced a lot of apex predators. And don’t even get started on “reintroduce apex predators” as if you could introduce wolf pacts into European population centers.

      Educate yourself instead of having these simplistic and childish outlooks.
