I own guns, shoot guns, keep them for protection.

I have never hunted, because I never had a desire to. I shot rats with a compound bow one time (grew up in a city).

I have no problem with hunting. My Grandsons all hunt. The oldest took 2 of the first Elk taken in KY in 40 years. Man was the meat good. I eat the deer they kill every year.

Hunting for the sake of killing, or even trophy hunting, I have some problem with that. Caught that eldest Grandson about to shoot a bird with the slingshot I had given him. I grabbed his arm, spun him around and asked him if he was going to eat that bird.
Killing for the sake of killing is wrong. God gave us control of the beasts to use. We are not meant to abuse that power.

Luring an old Lion, out of a preserve, shooting him with an arrow, and letting it suffer for 40 hours, then shooting it with a rifle, and taking it’s head?

I see no value, or use to this. Both men should pay a penalty.
