im like bowhuntingfool...i wont respond.

these people truely and deeply believe that hunting is wrong and all that.

you cannot argue peoples beliefs. think about it...someone tells you the God you believe in doesnt exsist and is wrong etc etc...your not gunna wanna hear it even if they back it up with valid proof and reasons(just an example of something most people have some sort of belief of..) you just cant argue beliefs...they are personal.

trying to educate these people SOUNDS like a great idea, and i can fire hard facts all day about the hunting industry and the economy, population control, wildlife management, etc etc etc...but they still dont wanna hear it and wont listen.

anti-hunters are known to be some of the least educated people about what they are fighting for. they dont know much other than its "wrong" and "inhumane" and "cruel" and all that stuff...thats about ALL they know...but they dont wanna hear anything else...

if someone is borderline and asks me about hunting, and why i hunt etc, i will explain to them and try a little education and try to reach them with things like "my dad taught me to hunt and its how we bond and spend time together" and things like that...as well as education such as "if hunters did not hunt deer, the population would steadily rise until their carrying capacity has been reached. besides more deer on the roadways, they will eventually eat themselves out of a home, and disease and starvation will become a major problem within the herd" a quick bullet sounds alot more human than being whacked on the road or starving or diseases...

but, that only works if they are borderline and TRUELY curious and asking. i dont talk hunting with people that dont hunt, and other than my vehicle, you'll never know i hunt...and the next vehicle i doubt i put the stickers on...ya i got the hunting t-shirts and that...but only wear them out with the buddies or to a place i know is going to be made up of hunters...i just dont need the hassle...
