RE: WHA Question
Windwalker, I think you bring up valid questions although I do not agree with some of your points because I think you have to look at this subject as a whole, and not as unconnected pieces.
Personally, my main objection to the WHA is that they are trying to cash in on the televised harassment of wildlife and are trying to promote to the general public that that is acceptable. It is not!
When I lay hands on a deer I have shot and killed, I know that I have just taken a life. I've taken the lifeof one of God's most beautiful creatures and it makes me a tiny bit sad. I do not look forward to killing. That sadness inside us is what keeps us responsible, respectful,and ethical.
When you take the sadness away and turnhunting into a screaming high-five festand reward that behavior with cash, prizes, and fame then you are taking responsibility, respectfulness, andethics out of hunting.
How long will it take for the new members of our hunting community to start imitating this behavior on their own?
Government loves control and this would be just another reason for them totake a weapon away from the rest of us law abiding citizens.
No Sir, to repeat what Rob/PA Bowyer has often said, NOTHING GOOD can come from this.
