'Feh' on hunting [hunters are little bit sick - and with some of them, more than a little bit]

What sort of person kills animals for sport? For fun? You see this picture of Sarah Palin kneeling in the snow over this moose she's just shot, and the moose is lying there bleeding from the mouth - and everybody's supposed to applaud. This is women's equality - women can kill moose, too.

Where do ya think "meat" comes from, Larry?

Tofu rot your brain?

I would not provide a hunted animal to Jewish people. ...only meat from properly, fully inspected and authorized processing.

Just throwing an idea out there, but would you trade a Jew hunted food for kosher food? Let's say I brought you 150# of mule deer meat. Could I get some kosher meat for that?

(Just bear with me here. I'm working on an idea.)

[familyop]

That’s a good idea forming, IMO. Remember that as a Gentile, I’m not really qualified to answer questions about Judaism.

And yes. I would be willing, if I were to produce meat and doing so were permitted, inspected and authorized (Orthodox).

I don’t know as to whether my state would allow such trading of wild game meat, though. Selling it is illegal, and donations require donation certificates and so forth.

Trading non-kosher meat from domestic animals for kosher meat might be legal. ...need to ask an Orthodox Rabbi about Halacha on that.

Here in Palin country (Alaska) we have a program that when an animal is hit by a vehicle, a call goes out to people who have signed up on a list for moose/vehicle accidents. Person on top of the list rolls, salvages what is salvageable ( moose can easily field dress at 800 pounds), and celebrate the great bounty.

A lot of noose get hit in the winter. They are just not that smart when it comes to vehicular traffic, or for that matter, trains!

I prefer a nice clean shot in the morning. Gives you all day to gut, and clean up the kill, and get it ready for aging/trip to town.

“Deriving pleasure from the hunting/killing/harm of a fellow sentient creature is probably moral depravity.”

The only sentient creature on Planet Earth is homo sapiens.

“I never had enough pelts to make a decent coat.”

Rabbit doesn’t make a very good coat, the skin is too thin. It does make a wonderful glove or mitten though, with the fur turned to the inside.

Wonder how those condo-dwellers would react to the number of insects that are kosher?

:p

[Ellendra]

I think you may be talking about different types of farms. There are factory farms that are not as clean or humane as the majority of smaller farms. I once toured a farm in which the owner (I will not call him a farmer) stood there bragging about the sheer number of cattle he’d been able to pack into one building, while I was watching a dairy cow trip and break her leg on the poorly-designed floor. He didn’t care, not even when I pointed it out to him.

I know most real farmers are not like that one, I’m working on becoming a farmer myself. But, they are out there. And unfortunately, those are the stories that get told.

Are any insect kosher? I wasn't aware of that... I've always assumed that since shellfish and crustaceans are not kosher, neither are insects nor bugs.

That would be fine here in Pocatello. I'm somewhat annoyed that we have few rabbits in the local area. Many years ago the rabbit population was infected with a nasty virus that attacked the rabbit's eyes. It decimated the population (on purpose). They are starting to come back. We haven't had our first hard frost, thus it is too early to be hunting rabbits. It's customary to wait until you have one or two hard frosts to kill off the sick rabbits before hunting any for food.

Surrender the card, Larry. Now.

So we’re just supposed to kill for fun? We’re not actually supposed to eat all the fish and shrimp and dove and deer that’s in my freezer? Oh, don’t I feel stupid! I thought... Nevermind.

Besides, food comes from the backroom at the grocery store, dontcha know! Shrinkwrapped and everything.

Do I need a s/ tag?

OTOH, maybe I shouldn’t make fun of the poor schmuck, and no, I’m not Jewish, I jsut know what the word means. I wouldn’t survive very long in a condo. LOL

I read this article and still didn’t figure out why the guy has his g-string in a knot. What a pansy! The big thing that stands out in his article is how many times he used the word “I”. He’s a self absorbed metrosexual that feels threatened by Sarah Palin.

My deepest apologies! ROTFLMAO

Every time I hit post, I got a server proxy error.

My comment was not so important nor insightful that it needed to be repeated however many times I repeated it! LOL
