Don't you think it's incredible that some people take pleasure out of slaughtering (and think it's positively virtuous to slaughter) defenceless animals? Can you imagine the hysteria there'd be if someone went about killing domesticated dogs and cats? Yet, to my mind, there's no difference between this and hunting bears, deer, raccoons, squirrels & chipmunks (yes, we have people like that, and they think themselves brave and manly as they mow down their tiny prey), foxes . . . and, of course, moose. How depraved are these folk?
