I don't know of anyone who gets into their Volvo and decides their going to go out and run over a deer. Let's face it, hunters, you're rationalizing. You've killed off the ORIGINAL preditors (mountain lions, wolves) and now you glorify your- selves by claiming to fill that niche -- WHICH YOU DESTROYED IN THE FIRST PLACE! Hunting is a sport. It is the sport of killing animals. It is not related to the killing of animals for food (though some hunters do), for if that were the case you'd have domesticated deer, wouldn't you?
