Bait/feeder hunting is only done by the most pathetic excuses for men around.

Are farmers pathetic? That's what it is really, farming, putting meat in the freezer.

Now there's an example of moral equivalence a Berkeley professor would be proud of.

Are farmers hunting?

Nope.

They're raising animals for food. A hunter is engaging in a sport that I (for one) consider an honorable method of gaining food and (from time to time) something to make a pair of gloves.

Does a farmer load up a rifle, suit up in camo and then mount the horns of his latest butchered steer on the wall?

Nope.

There's nothing wrong with hunting...if you're hunting.

My issue has nothing to do with the death of an animal. It has everything to do with wannabe tough guys attempting to claim to be hunters while doing nothing more than shooting livestock at the trough.
