Hunting and fishing are essentially killing animals for food, not sport. Are
you proposing that enjoying the process be outlawed? This kind of crap shows
the extent to which AR is an attack on personal freedom.

No, you sick, twisted little git, freedom to embrace and experience an
essence act of survival, hunting or fishing for one's food. Buying
supermarket food and pretending it doesn't contain a legacy of animal death
is the real act of moral cowardice.

Crap AGAIN.

Do people that hunt foxes, bears, lions, elephants, prairie dogs, etc, eat
them?

===============================
More than 82 million U.S. residents fished, hunted, and watched wildlife in
2001. They spent over $108 billion pursuing their
*recreational activities*, contributing to millions of jobs in industries
and businesses that support wildlife-related *recreation*.

The article depicts deer, not elephants. As usual, you're conflating a
legitimate cause, preservation of valuable, special species, or hunting to
eliminate pests with hunting for food.

He would like us to think he is a 'Big Bread Winner' but I have my doubts.

It's not crap, fishing *certainly* is 99.9% about food and hunting is only

Crap. I'm stating FACTS. You're calling me names.

If you read the National Survey on Recreation and the Environment (NSRE),
most hunters are white, high earners and male.

96% White, 91% male

Income of Hunters:
Participation rates among hunters varied
by household income from 2 percent of
persons with household incomes of less
than $10,000 a year (2 percent of all
hunters came from these households) to 9
percent of those reporting incomes of
$40,000 to $49,999 (13 percent of all
hunters), $50,000 to $74,999 (22 percent
of all hunters), and $75,999 to $99,999
(12 percent of all hunters). Households
reporting $10,000 to $19,999 incomes had
a 3 percent participation rate and
comprised 4 percent of all hunters. Five
percent of the nation's population with
household incomes of $20,000 to $24,999
hunted in 2001 and made up 4 percent of
all hunters. Households with incomes of
$25,000 to $29,999 had a 7 percent
participation rate, representing 6 percent
of all hunters. In households reporting
incomes of $30,000 to $34,999, 7 percent
was the participation rate. Residents of
these households represented 6 percent of
all hunters. Eight percent of the persons in
households reporting incomes of $35,000
to $39,999 totaled 6 percent of all
hunters. Finally, 7 percent of persons
with household incomes of $100,000 or
more hunted and comprised 10 percent of
all hunters.

Do you know anything about surveys or statistics (yes, that is a rhetorical
question, because I already know the answer)? In F_A_C_T, the data you cite
were calculated from a telephone sample, which is currently one of the worst
ways to conduct a survey because potential respondents have been so
alienated by telemarketers that they employ many devices to avoid calls and
rarely respond to the survey when they do answer the phone. It was a pretty
good method back in 1953.

But again, so what? I'll bet the median income squash player is, on average,

Are you a closet racist/sexist? If so, you've left the door open a bit.

If you read the National Survey on Recreation and the Environment (NSRE),
most hunters are white, high earners and male.
96% White, 91% male
So? Squash players probably fit the same profile.
Post by Zakhar
Participation rates among hunters varied
by household income from 2 percent of
persons with household incomes of less
than $10,000 a year (2 percent of all
hunters came from these households) to 9
percent of those reporting incomes of
$40,000 to $49,999 (13 percent of all
hunters), $50,000 to $74,999 (22 percent
of all hunters), and $75,999 to $99,999
(12 percent of all hunters). Households
reporting $10,000 to $19,999 incomes had
a 3 percent participation rate and
comprised 4 percent of all hunters. Five
percent of the nation's population with
household incomes of $20,000 to $24,999
hunted in 2001 and made up 4 percent of
all hunters. Households with incomes of
$25,000 to $29,999 had a 7 percent
participation rate, representing 6 percent
of all hunters. In households reporting
incomes of $30,000 to $34,999, 7 percent
was the participation rate. Residents of
these households represented 6 percent of
all hunters. Eight percent of the persons in
households reporting incomes of $35,000
to $39,999 totaled 6 percent of all
hunters. Finally, 7 percent of persons
with household incomes of $100,000 or
more hunted and comprised 10 percent of
all hunters.

All surveys have errors, the survey has a very detailed section on Sampling
Variability, including:

Standard Errors of Estimated Percentages. The reliability of an estimated
percentage, computed using sample data for both
numerator and denominator, depends on the size of the percentage and its
base. *Estimated percentages are relatively more
reliable than the corresponding estimates of the numerators of the
percentages, *particularly if the percentages are 50 percent* or more*. When
the numerator and the denominator of the percentage are in different
categories, use the parameter in the tables indicated by the numerator.

Well, that's an awfully broad statement and it's an awfully big world. But I
take your point that most hunters today could obtain meat from someone else
who kills the animal and wraps it for them. So what? I could have paid
someone to build the mahogany knick-knack shelves I gave to my wife. I chose
to build them myself. What's the harm in that?

It also proves that no hunter today NEEDS to hunt for clothing or food.
In the US, most of the ones who really NEED to hunt or fish for food
(because they have no other easy protein source (at least that they
can afford)) are not counted by anyone, except judges and game wardens
when they're caught and brought to trial (which is rare). They're the
poachers who don't get turned in by their neighbors and sometimes get
off with just a warning from the wardens. The rural poor.

However prefering to take the responsibilty for at least doing a token
of one's own killing for food seems admirable to me. Better than
going to the grocery store and buying stuff one has paid the grocer,
the trucker, the slaughterhouse, the rancher or farmer to raise and
kill for one.

It's also a contention of mine that the wild animal suffers far less
than the raised animal in the manner of its death, unless it's a small
farm where the owner and raiser does his / her own butchering or has a
neighbor do it.

The wild animal probably suffers less over the course of its life or, at
least, has a far more stimulating life than its domestic cousins. But
you cannot say with any certainty that it has an easier death, not when
you factor in the wounding/non-retrieval rate of game.

No US state requires a shooting competency test before issuing a license
to hunt. It's disgraceful.

Well, after you've heard of some of what happens in slaughterhouses,
that's not just happening in hunting.

No, I'm not certain it has an easier death, but, except for the
erroneous wounding (equalled by the slaughterhouse error), there's the
whole lack of terror in the transport and holding pens factor.

Poachers probably don't track down their wounded as thoroughly as
legit hunters do. Unfortunate. I have watched a few hunters go
after wounded animals. Some want that meat whatever and some feel
dreadfully responsible for a wounded animal that's in shock and fear.
If never found, I feel that it's a blessing that the nights are cold
in deer season. The animal will very likely feel it's escaped, even if
in pain, lie down to rest and just never wake up.

Agreed, pre-slaughtering handling is enormously stressful. Though the
failure rate of first-stunning seems low at 9%, that still means
millions of animals require a second or third stunning. No stunning is
required during poultry slaughter. I can only imagine the nightmare
these poor birds must endure.

Consider that 50% of hunting attempts fail and the prey escapes
unharmed. No domestic meat animal escapes the slaughterman.

Most of what I find in the woods has been dead long enough that I

Hunting and fishing are essentially killing animals for food, not sport. Are
you proposing that enjoying the process be outlawed? This kind of crap shows
the extent to which AR is an attack on personal freedom.
What an INSIGNIFICANT loss of "personal freedom"!!
You don't care about all the killing of animals which definitely is
NOT for food (such as poisoning animals in laboratories) and definitely
NOT necessary. So, with that kind of extremism, don't complain if
laws come down on you hard and stop you from killing animals for food.

You can find plenty of vegetarian food in the supermarket.
What an INSIGINIFICANT hardship! Try living in a Nazi or
Stalinist concentration camp in the 1930s. Think about the MASSIVE
loss of freedom and attacks on drug users and dealers and on
pornographers. People are sent to prison for 10-15 years for simply
consuming drugs which is NOBODY else's business. Nobody ties anyone
else down and makes them do drugs or read pornography.

Not sure whom that's supposed to impress. Deer also range. Most animals

view. Hunters aren't the ones vandalizing law-abiding restaurants and
stores. It's the ARAs who are engaged in lawlessness.

Terrorism means deliberately hurting INNOCENT people.
Do you mean like bombing Chiron's offices? Calling up employees in
middle of the night and threatening them and their children? Leafletting
schools with "wanted posters" where employees' children attend? How
about flooding a store and adjacent businesses? Damaging a chef's car
and house? Sending the chef hidden videos of him and his family spending
time together at home along with a note warning him that he's being watched?

I guess you think all that's okay. Tell me one instance of hunters
engaging in such behavior.

Hunters, like Al-Qaeda, are guilty of killing and torturing the
innocent for fanatical religious and entertainment reasons.
Hyperbole.

It's not hunters who go out in the days before hunting season
and create a lot of racket to stir up the deer.
SO WHAT?? Animal rights activists HAVE EVERY LEGAL AND MORAL
RIGHT to go onto public lands and stir up deer or rabbit!
You do not have a right to do that on PRIVATE lands, which is where
nearly all hunting in my state is done. As for rights, most states have
public nuisance and disturbance laws. You don't have a right to go out
in a park and make noise, defecate and urinate in public areas, or
commit vandalism.

We do not OWE hunters any animals!
You should treat others as you wish to be treated.

This statement PROVES you hunters and hunter supporters OPPOSE
CHOICE -- the choice of animal rights activists do what THEY want
with wildlife!
No, but your statement proves you are ignorant about the issues and do
not comprehend what you read.

Post by usual suspect
It's also the ARAs who seek to deny hunters the right to hunt and deny
landowners the right to lease land for hunting.
GOOD!! And when we do get those laws passed, it is you terrorist
hunters who break the law!
You won't pass any such laws.

In all the hearings I've
attended, it's been the ARAs who've shouted down pro-hunt advocates and
game officials -- never the other way around.
BULLSHIT! What a fucking liar you are. The complete OPPOSITE is true.
You called me a liar, so prove it. I've attended numerous meetings of
the TPWD Commission as well as both Texas house and senate hearings
pertaining to wildlife legislation. I have NEVER heard hunters shout
down others. Activists, though, routinely shout down speakers,
commissioners, experts, senators, representatives, and even each other.
Post by tortrix
Post by usual suspect
Perhaps you should try
attending such hearings and judge yourself rather than getting your
talking points from agenda-driven liars.
I have. And every one of them is full of pro-hunting fanatic
terrorists.
They have a right to attend such meetings, as do activists. Hunters,
though, are far more civil.
Post by tortrix
And in this world of MAJOR problems like disease, poverty, and
injustice,
nobody is going to take you and your hunter buddies'
frivilous trivial little complaints about some imaginany offenses
seriously.
The FBI sure are taking you and your cronies seriously. Bombings, animal
releases, and threats are neither imaginary nor trivial. You should stop
before somebody gets hurt.

It's also a contention of mine that the wild animal suffers far less
than the raised animal in the manner of its death,
The wild animal probably suffers less over the course of its life or, at
least, has a far more stimulating life than its domestic cousins. But
you cannot say with any certainty that it has an easier death, not when
you factor in the wounding/non-retrieval rate of game.
No US state requires a shooting competency test before issuing a license
to hunt. It's disgraceful.
(snip)
It's the same here in the UK, anyone can shoot game with landowners
permission, even a shotgun license doesn't require a competence. Worse
still, so called stalkers and marksmen in culling programmes as
carried out by CONservation hooligans like the RSPB, WT are exactly
the same people, and licenses can be gained for a friendly chat and a
bottle of good malt. No wonder there are so many wounded animals dying
in agony.

So what do you do? Why, you simply try to turn the
accusation around. It's a common tactic, and it FAILS,
every time.
Inflicting your own weak logic on to others is not a very convincing
argument, not least because there is no argument against a caring
attitude.
There are very strong arguments against sanctimony. For one, *you*
choose to ignore massive animal killing done on your behalf. You lack
the moral authority to point fingers.
The very thing that gets up your nose, is because we DO NOT choose to
ignore animal killing, whatever shape or form it takes. You simply
cannot accept that some people do things for the good of others, this
says a lot about just how sorry your life is, without love for another
in it.

No. They don't "tell" anyone anything. Rather, they

Hunters form a cult which is the most EXTREMELY opposed to personal
freedom and choice for humans.
This is pretty funny. "ar" - "animal rights" - is
completely based on totalitarian impulses. The very
small, confused minority of people who believe in "ar"
want to impose their views on everyone else. This is
pointed out to you, and you have no real rebuttal.
You're a blind bigot. ARs is about caring for the oppressed,
suffering, bullied, the underdog. It's equally applicable to any
species, simply put, it's a caring position.
I agree it *can be* that, but the conflicts arise when it becomes *more*
than that. People who lay guilt-trips on people who don't share this
particular "caring position" are being self-righteous.
Telling the truth is not self-righteous. Just because you cannot
handle the truth doesn't mean it is any less the truth.
It's YOU that can't handle the truth. The truth is animals die to sustain
you and your lifestyle, and no amount of projection of your guilt on me will
make that truth go away.

Dutch, answer this:
why must I be forced to watch ads for KFC and McDonalds on television
whenever I wait at doctor's offices? Why must I be forced to watch
rodeos and ads for meat on my cable television -- tv which *I* pay for?

The anti-animal groups FORCE these ads onto television and radio.
They deny me the choice, through my cable company, of having cable
tv selection which is free of animal abuse and torture.

Freedom in the US has ended: thanks to the hunters and the animal
slaughter industry forcing their way into every aspect of animal rights
activists' lives.
