I must admit that I'm against hunting for sport. I think it is stupid - what kind of challenge is it to kill an animal with a high power rifle?

What's the problem with going out with a camera, finding the animals and taking a nice picture of it? What purpose does it serve to kill it for sport? It's different if you intend to eat it or need it to survive, but just to kill it to say "I killed this, isn't it great?"

I don't hunt, but I'm friends with a lot of them. Hunting for sport IS stupid, however, probably 99% of hunters eat the meat of the animal they kill, which in my book is fine. Unless your a vegitarian, noone should be putting down hunters, they are MUCH MUCH more cruel to animals (like cows and chickens) that are used by the beef / poultry industry than a hunter could possibly be.

As far as the bullet logo goes. It IS a wargaming forum. I don't condone war or killing but I do find the weapons / tactics facinating. I think of it more like a game of chess than anything else (which is just a very abstracted war game in itself). Your child should be educated enough (by YOU not the forum) to understand the difference between seeing a bullet and killing someone.

I'm not bashing anyone, just stating my take on it...
