IGK would probably say that his whole life makes sense when you put it into the context of children.
But yeah, acute observation. "Hey kids! My name's Van Poopy Pants! How about we take a ride in my mother's car?" |

Man, I don't understand the point of hunting at all.
Except for, like, people in pre-industrial/developing nations and , obviously. |

Yeah, I love my family. Going to shoot 'em and stuff 'em next week. |

Isn't a grocery store cheaper, easier, and more convenient? |

Yes, but its not the same thing obviously.
Hunting satisfies a primal urge. Its challenging (most of the time). It requires honing a skill.
There are lots of reasons beyond those as well.
Are they valid reasons from a moral/ethical standpoint? I don't really know. |

It's a totally different culture...don't know what else to tell you. I generally side against hunting but in this case I don't really see a whole lot wrong with it. My uncle can identify any bird, animal, tree, or flower that he sees. He loves nature. If he kills a few things and eats them and then kills a few other things to display in his house and marvel at their beauty than good for him.
I, personally, would never want to shoot a gun, be it at a range or in the wild, but...well, I eat veal. Who am I to judge. Let's leave it at that. |

Despite my love of nature and animals, I don't really have a problem with hunting, as long as the hunters eat what they kill.
Animals taste delicious, and I'd be a massive hypocrite to suggest otherwise.
Hunting for fun or sport though - It's basically just making a person feel powerful, and more than likely offsetting how piss-weak they are in day-to-day life.
IMO :o |

I meant it tongue in cheek :p
Sort of like fishing really. I'm sure it's fun and if you can get a nice meal out of it, so be it. It can also be done to cull animals when there are too many out in the wild, such as with boars and recently kangaroos. |
