Palin's administration was all about Drill & Kill!

2. ? That was a jet. Wouldn't it have to fly too fast and too high to hunt from it?

11. They fly into russia to hunt, the main sale point is they can get their guns in easier.

3. Whatever.

It's not like you can't be both an animal lover and a hunter at the same time.

4. Aerial hunting of wolves is about the lamest kind of hunting around.

Anyone who does it is a POS in my book. Why not just go hunting at your local zoo?

6. It's barbaric. Like shooting fish in a barrel, only shooting them multiple times

to make them suffer first.

10. i agree with you on that point

but why hunt wolves?

and if hunting - the sport, as opposed to hunting for food - wolves, why aerial?

hunting for food? here in michigan i would guess that people who once ate what they killed are now really and truly hunting for food.

but no one eats wolves, do they? so that means hunting wolves is sport. so is it really sporting to shoot wolves from planes? that seems more like a video game than hunting. :shrug:

8. Chasing down animals until they are too tired to run, and killing them is unChristian.

Anyone who tries to tell you otherwise, is making excuses.

"I wonder at the sincerity of these people who worry about wolves and polar bears, but think it is okay to kill babies because they are "inconvenient" or because they want to get out of the responsibility of raising them."

Hey Richard, I'm your Huckleberry. Count me as one who believes the world could use a few less people and a few more Polar Bears and Wolves. See the thing is, Polar Bears and Wolves don't pollute the planet, they don't consume resources at an ever increasing rate. And what's more, I've never been annoyed by a Polar Bear or Wolf. On the other hand, people generally annoy me. Especially people like you.
