The U.S. Sportsmen's Legal Defense Fund, an arm of the U.S. Sportsmen's Alliance, has petitioned a federal judge to dismiss a case brought by anti-hunters that would outlaw recreational hunting on 37 units of the National Wildlife Refuge System. "The case is totally without merit," said Rick Story of the Sportsmen's Alliance Foundation, which manages the defense fund. "We would have filed our motion to dismiss the suit sooner, but the anti-hunting plaintiffs kept amending it to seek hunting bans on more refuges. It seems they've run out of ideas, so it's time to end this debacle." The sportsmen's group worked with the influential Safari Club International on the motion and also had Ducks Unlimited, Delta Waterfowl, the Izaak Walton League and the California Waterfowl Association as defendant interveners.

I wonder how many people who work at the humane society enjoy snorfing down a burger. They don't want me to kill a deer or wild hog, but they have no problem commissioning the inhumane murder of commercially raised animals by paying for the products over the counter. I always try for an instant death shot and the animals enjoy living free until dinner time.

a burger.

But burger's come from burger king what does that have to do with killing animals.
