At the end of the day killing an animal, is killing an animal. It never ceases to amaze me the self righteousness of people who think their reasons for killing are better than someone else's. I honestly think that most of these types of threads are started out of boredom or an attempt to "stir the pot". I seriously doubt the Giraffe cares what the hunter's motivation was, why should it bother you? If it's legal, quit your whining about it and find something constructive to do with your time. Flame away! Just my $.02!
