Subject: RE: BS: Should foxhunting be banned?
No, it shouldn't. BUT, Anyone who kills something should(MUST) eat it, and anyone who eats something should(MUST) kill and prepare it. Don't know how you could police that, but I do follow the philosphy, and consider it a form of respect. I shoot no longer, and fish with barbless hooks in case a fish gets away with one. Asides. Fish do not feel pain in the same way that mammals do. Not a biologist, but I've caught thousands of fish. The things they eat are very spiny. On behalf of potatos. Will you bloody Vegans stop killing our babies. I do not like factory farming (indoor type) but if we still lived in a hunter-gatherer society most people would only live for weeks. The mealy-mouthed would die first. Hmmmmm...
