I think we should have some what of a respectful manner on the way we talk and present ourselves as hunters. The more respectful we look to the non hunters, the better we will be in the end against the anti's. The non hunters are the ones we need on our sides. I myself make sure my field pictures of the animals I take are well cleaned up so when I do post them on the internet or show them to a friend who might be a non hunter no one will be disgusted by my sloppiness or offended. Every little bit does help in my opinion. And if they still are offended its not by my being sloppy with how I represent myself as a hunter.
I do agree with this. I like the distinction you make between non-hunters and Antis. Non-hunters are the swing vote in this issue and not giving them a reason to dislike us weighs heavily in our favor.
