The hunter saw people in the water and decided to shoot anyways. He knew what he was doing.

If you are hunting a deer and person steps infront of the deer, you can't just decide you are going to shoot them to get to the deer. This is basically waht the shooter did. He saw her, he aimed, and he shot her.

You obviously read a different article then the one posted.

These people are idiots, but hunters should be shot.

Honestly, I think these people are idiots. But I also think that hunting has its place.

Taking joy in someone being shot in the face who is doing nothing other than expressing an opinion is asinine.

You're sick. Many reasons I only eat game. Game fish and game birds. i stoppd deer hunting because I felt bad about loses. Not injected and feed steroids and other uk crap. Animals live like they are supposed to, wild and free not caged and full of feces. Plus it's fun as shit to get out in nature and tastes damn good.


BTW I've had a lifetime hunting and fishing license since 1979 best investment my dad ever made.:) Today it's $1000 but back then it was $175... Have to buy no tags or anything. One season pays for itself.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes. What was that dumb bitch doing interpreting a duck hunt for without having blocker training?

He is being sarcastic, you do realize that hunting is more humane than supporting commercialized meat right? Of course you don't, you're a pussy little brit.

You're a pathetic american twat.

I don't know what this has to do with me

Aside from that there is no morality in killing animals for sport, whether you eat them afterwards or not, it's awful. Horrible and a tad psychotic. I would argue that the hunters that enjoy doing these need serious help.

Modern humans did two things for approximately 100,000 years of evolution: hunted and fucked. Fast forward to the 21st century and now people who feel the urge to hunt are a tad psychotic and need serious help? Why don't you say the same for the urge to fuck? We don't need to fuck to procreate, we have technology, and the human urges cause all kinds of problems: rape for example, or infidelity which ruins families, it interferes with work, sexual harrassment is rampant....Maybe we should all be neutered. Would solve a lot of problems.

IF you are not a vegetarian, your opinions on the morality of it are still grossly misguided. If you're a vegetarian, forget what I'm saying right now. But if you eat meat, you must come to terms with these questions: Do you gauge morality on the number of degrees removed from the slaughter? If hunting is immoral, is cattle prodding slightly less so because it's done in a slaughter house? How about a remotely activated cattle prod, energized by the push of a button after the cow has been contained in a pen so it can't move? Is that a little bit less immoral?

Or maybe you need a software program which automatically corrals the cow into a pen, grabs the head, confines it, then obliterates the brain stem with a giant hydraulically actuated maul, only operated after the cow's nose touches a sensor at the front of the cage. The system is activated in the morning at the start of the shift, and the operator turns it off at quitting time. Is this now moral because the human has been greatly dissociated from the act of killing the animal?

c'mon they're protesting DUCK HUNTING lol.

Here in the Midwest, I have never seen a duck hunting protest in my life. there's plenty of ducks! And don't even get me started on snow geese, there's FUCKING MILLIONS of those. They are treated like a pest you can kill like 50 a day.

Yo protesters, go save a fricken humpback whale or an elephant or something.

All very good points, I'm not a vegetarian, but I believe eating meat to be morally wrong, I am a hypocrite in this respect, I have no illusions about what I'm doing, I am in my own code of ethics doing something wrong. The distance between me and the kill is irrelevant, it is morally wrong, and I am part of this sinful tapestry, the difference (If there is one) is that I realise what I'm doing is wrong and take no joy in it (other than the physical sensation of my taste buds) but really that's completely irrelevant, it is wrong, to me however eating meat is one thing killing for sport is another. There is a difference (just) in the fact that I take no joy in an animal losing it's life. Both are wrong however.

Shame she wasn't protesting geese hunting. That shot to the face with appropriate shot for goose would hurt her stink ass a lot more.

This is why gun control doesn't work. If she had a gun, obviously she wouldn't have been shot.

I'm not looking for you to argue with me.

Sinful tapestry? you sound like some emo fuck likely to shoot up a school. Look animals had the same 500 million years to evolve as me, they failed as such they taste good. If shoe was on other foot believe it they'd hunt you for food.

Oh and only good thing to come out of UK
