I would think they do feel pain expecially when I skin them and faleigh the meat from there bones. Give me a break! Next thing there going to say we need to quit fishing because the worms feel pain too. Do these idiots have nothing better to do then try to complain about the sportsmen , who by the way- are the major funding contributors for conservation and animal habbiat. How much money do these people donate a year to the animals and fish etc. But yet they are so concerned about them[]. Then why dont they start contributeing to support wild life and stop just talking about it. I am a sportsman and proud of it. Ole wackk em and stack em was on TV the other day and he offered these actavists a chance to put up or shut up he sponcores a charity shoot every year for kids and said that if they could match the contributions to the charity that he would not have the hunt, well low and behold he had the hunt emagine that. These activists have no idea on how we sportsmen contribute to conservation (100 fold more then they do) they just want to talk about it. They dont realize if we did not control the deer #s that the deer herds would eventially die off from starvation and disease. The other thing that burns my as# is there the first ones to complain when they hit a deer in the fall with there Chevett but geuss who they blaim for that too.
