You are certainly welcome to have the opinion that you don't want to do it. But, under the Tenth Amendment, each State has the right to define "hunting" within its borders. If what I do is legal hunting within my State as defined by the state wildlife agency, then, you are required to consider it "hunting" and it is inappropriate for you to rant for pages about something you've never experienced and that you know about only via assumptions, speculation and biased information filtered by anti hunting groups.
To paraphrase your thought... Where is it written that you have the right to tell someone else that they are "not hunting"? You are telling them that they have no freedom to form their own opinion... "Obtuse" seems to be a two way street here...
