Hunting is part of life..yes. But it's an almost sacred thing. What this asshole did wasn't hunting. He's the same kinda dipshit redneck who shoots up road signs, smashes mailboxes in the country, spraypaints 'bubba was here' on a canyon wall, and dumps his garbage off the bridge into the creek.

There's no excuse for cruelty to animals just for the power hard-on. In fact it's the first thing they look for in the psychographic profiles of serial killers and psychopaths.
People killed wolves because they were threatend by them. You've heard the stories, we all have. Little red riding hood, the boy who cried wolf, haha! Wolves scared humans, so we killed them off. Deer hunting is of nescessity, though. btw, I'm a bit of a redneck, but I don't do the things you mentioned.

There is no exuse for cruelty to animals...hell, I love animals. But, hunting is fun, needed, and as long as you hunt by regulation, and consume the kill all is good.

I'm a hunter, I enjoy hunting, and will soon take my kid with me on my hunting trips. I've killed one already this year, and have already made a deer roast, and a pot of chili with my kill.

Very tasty!
