Personally, I think that ethics are not a "slippery slope" but rather like you said a firm difference between right and wrong.

Agreed...........THAT is what we need to focus our efforts on. Doing something because it is the RIGHT thing to do.........not under the illusion of fairness.

Try to tell someone that doesn't know hunting that it is "fair" when you go out toting that 308...........and imagine that they have seen a deer drive put on. What do you think they would say?


Or arguing in favor of High-fence?

Not at all.............is that where you draw the line?? Inside a fence is not fair but outside is fair?..........I don't see it as that cut and dry. I would even go as far as saying there are hunts that take place every day INSIDE a fence that are more "fair" then some that take place OUTSIDE them.



Or are you saying that all those things, that may or may not give an unskilled hunter a teensy little more of an edge on their quarry, are ruining hunting as you see it?
I'm saying they are all shades of the same color.



Atlas, I really don't get it... I think you're just here to gripe and see how PO'd you can get people. I don't know you from Adam, but you really know how to use alot of words to say basically nothing.
Then you really missed the point.
