You seem to not have a problem with eating a hamburger but if someone kills a wild animal then they are disturbed and immature.

You seem to have a problem with only reading, or possibly only retaining, the parts of other people's posts that it suits your argument to cite.

To explain it still a different way, yes, judged in the matter of having helped, in some small way, to perpetuate an industry that causes the deaths of millions of completely innocent animals, I am, by my meat-eaing ways, guilty, and I believe that I already labeled myself a probable hypocrite before you did.

Practically speaking, there is absolutely zero chance that all the forces of PETA and friends are ever going to eliminate the meat industry - but I believe that its possible to put a dent in the killing of wild creatures for fun and 'sport' by highlighting the pathological nature of the activity.

Killing animals in order to feed your family or to make a living is one thing - doing it for fun is just sick and wrong.
