I, as you all know agree with what Matt said. This is not about the word kill or harvest (FYI Harvest is the term I use when I take a animal) why you ask??? Well, I eat what I shoot...I don't do it for pleasure....never have and never will....as for it destroying a garden.... whatever, there are other ways of getting rid of the problem rather than using a live animal as TARGET PRACTICE. .....This is a about the difference between right from wrong....whomever you are not just Joe, it just isn't right to take an animal and then laugh about it. Its okay to be happy that you had an oppurtunity to take it...I always am but I also always thank the animal too. Kinda like TED says....whats his saying, something like long live the beast... or something...I don't say that but I do get down and thank the animal....To me, its the right thing to do. Thanking the guy up above for giving you the oppurtunity to be at that place at that time wouldn't hurt either.

If it's Ted Nugent your talking about he believes in keeping varmits in check. It's the right thing to do to keep down disease. Stray dogs get shot on sight and the only good coon is a dead coon.
