    You're derailing and your last statement is ludicrous. As is this statement: "man you are a meat eater and kill chickens pigs and steer when you are in the mood to."
    On that list on Treehugger that you linked, I am guilty of 2 and 3: bike/car tires and glue for instruments. My girlfriend and I have one car and I have one bike. I always read labels and don't touch anything that uses any animal by-products.
    trophy hunting is the killing of animals so is what you do when you eat meat
    drive your car and use your glue so you have no case against legal trophy hunting
    its just not for you

    no replies yeah
    pure hypocrisy to eat meat, wear leather, the ladies carry leather then act all noble like they can't kill a thing
    Ted's honest about who he is

    No replies because it has been discussed already and, as gimme mentioned, I guess one doesn't feel like retyping. ;) Maybe.

    You're right, It is true that history holds "noble men of character with the heads of wild beasts on their walls."

    But then again, you can also validly use "history" in making arguments for things such as slavery and blood-letting, thereby making "history" in and of itself not very strong support for an arguement.

    Do you have anything better in making an argument for trophy hunting other than "history" then?
    why do you have a problem with legal trophy hunting better question

    I did answer this at my post at 11:04 a.m. EDT

    viewtopic.php?f=13&t=187740&start=45#p4381587

    So, now can you answer my question?
    .. Besides "history"or "Teddy says its ok", what are YOUR arguments in support of "trophy hunting"?

    I really would like to hear.

    I would also like to separately debate about animals killed for food and keep this particular debate having to do with trophy hunting only, if we could.

    I can't think of a bigger mockery to God, than hanging one of His beautiful creation's HEAD on my wall.

    Think about it. We don't own animals. Who in the world do we think we are?
    Hanging a HEAD on a WALL...isn't that the utmost form of disrespect available? to the animal and to God?

    You see, the human race,, the most "intelligent" and the most "evolved" species are so smart we are stupid.

    Anyone who choses to exercise their "free will" by hanging a head on a wall shows just what kind of person they are, whether it's a legal crime or not, it's a crime against God and against nature and against beauty and against what is GOOD.

    And as far as using animals for food...Animals HAVE been part of the food chain since day whatever. The most important thing I feel is a humane life and a humane death for animals that are raised for food. (Temple Grandin has done alot towards the humane treatment of cattle both in life, death, and even on their way to death)

    I feel my part in this battle is to begin investigation on what needs to be done or who needs to be contacted so that the word "humane" can be changed to something more fitting. if "humane" is a derivative of the word "human", I believe the way humans have been treating animals would leave the word "humane" to be something most undesirable.

    I think that photography or a beatiful painting of an animal on a wall is a much "nobler" way of honoring that animal ...and that the physical head is instead just a way for the hunter to honor himself, not the animal

    you are emotional dramatic your words opinion of a non hunter
    not wrong different than mine

    I have no problem with legal trophy hunting period I have no problem with Ted he is doing his thing and better stay within the law
    I dig his music and laugh at his jokes his guitar smokes
    time for lunch I am feeling exotic today shark I think and if I caught it it would be on my wall
    not for my ego but cause it is beautiful like a painting but better
    maybe someone will have a burger and chicken wing picture on their wall

    refresh my memory....why ?
    killing is killing right ? be it man or animal if Ted kills and grills a ..big cat whats the differance between killing a ...big cat or big cow ? maybe you just wouldn't hang a cow head on your wall but I bet there are long horns all over the US, like I said earlier I wouldn't hunt to eat right now but if it came down to survival I'd kill a big cat or a big rhino in a heart beat, I've hunted many years when I was a little younger we had venisson in the freezer every year and we raised pig's and cows for butcher and had chickens for egg's...you ever see what a hog can do to a man or for that matter another hog ?..it ain't pretty all they need is to see or smell blood and it's on, and chickens them little shits can be pretty mean also...you think if animals had better brain power and fingers and thunmbs they would hunt and kill people ? wait some do...don't they ;) so maybe it's a deal where the strong survive...and Rolling I'm not to sure but I think the Bible says man was given all the beasts of the land to rule over and use for food..I think..I'll have to check.

    Yes I am. Why would I continue to debate with someone who compares me to a trophy hunter who slaughters animals?

    it's like Hitchens or Dawkins debating someone who says that they have met "God." The debate will go nowhere.

    So when it comes down to it...

    Your arguments offered up in support of trophy hunting are not very compelling, I must say.

    The Bible doesn't mean anything to me though, and to many others for that matter. Not the best source to use.

    Thank you Godfather. This is the last paragraph from your link, which was very short and to the point, like you said.

    When killing animals, one must carefully discern the purpose and attitude. Is it truly for food? Or is it more for the sport or trophy? Keep in mind that animals are, after all, part of God’s creation and, as such, should be treated with a certain amount of respect.
    

    I totally agree with this. Do you?

    Fantastically said Rollings, though not a God person, I will read 'humanity' instead of God (no disrespect intended - I hope non taken).

    Right, it is the same thing....humanity, animality, spirituality, the beauty and the splendor of the earth, ....and that's not even mentioning all of the universe.....all the stuff we DON'T know about

    We are all humans and we all fall.....none of us are perfect in living a life that is perfectly right and respecting what is sacred and good.

    It is one thing to make a mistake, but quite another to so actively, purposefully, and especailly--grandiosely--disrespect the above ( "humanity, animality, spirituality, the beauty and the splendor of the earth, ....and that's not even mentioning all of the universe.....all the stuff we DON'T know about")

    From Godfather's link:

    So, to apply the above reference to this thread--I mean ted--it is not hard to ascertain that the killing of animals for food is acceptable but that killing for sport or trophy is wrong.

    I agree. Animals are part of the food chain. Even the animals know that. Ask the honey badger..he don't give a shit.

    But to kill just to be able to show off what you "did". That's just wrong.

    buffalo bill cody
    1867 - 1868 he murdered 4,280
    listen (and watch) for chief sitting bull's 1877 quote at the 9:50

    in one fucking year he shot and killed for no reason other than the government taking over this great land and the removal of indians.

    on average cody murdered 11.7 buffalo daily . that is raping mother earth to the highest order and pile of shit the word dispicable has to offer.

    priror to 1870
    50 million buffalo roamed the plains of the west
    by 1888 only about 1000 buffalo remained

    nice going bill cody
    this is how nugent is
    he kills everything and has no give a fuck

    As most here would - survival is a strong instinct. Even a couple of my vegetarian friends would - if they get desperate and if there was no other option.

    but ted aint starving yet murders giraffe 14,000 miles away. i don't get it. ted, you hungry, man?

    godfather, anyone starving would most likely kill to eat. a multimillionaire canned hunting is not starving nor not raping the earth nor molesting wildlife
