Do you think hunting is a sport?

I vote for No.
I will never kill God's creatures just to have fun.
What's your opinion?

I will never respect someone that feels pleasure killling living beings...

I don´t like to kill animals too, but tell me friends
Do you eat meat? because What´s the difference between hunting or eating animals, even insects? is the same.
I´m vegetarian

The difference is that, when killing animals for food, we don't do that for pleasure... hunters do the opposite, instead.
I feel like the ancient american natives: every time they killed an animal, they had a special ritual to ask his pardon, since they didn't like to kill him... they had to do it to survive...

Do you think your family would think like you if a cannibal kill you?

Maybe they kill you in order to survives, Don´t you?

Sorry Elba, but you're wrong! Cannibals have never killed other humans for food... eating the killed enemies was a ritual. They thought that eating some enemy's body parts would have transferred to them his courage and strength.

Ops ops ops, I´m sorry

What they should do is first give the animals weapons and see how they get on. Would be a more even contest I guess.

I don't consider that hunting is a kind of sport. For me, hunting is a killing. Especially if people do it only for fun not even at least for food.
