Should Killing Be Merely a Mouse Click Away?

This is an article about how people hunt over the internet. (Aim the gun with your mouse, kill.)

My opinion: it’s noxious.

And I love how the “traditional” hunter tries to come off as some kind of nature-loving boyscout.

Gary Harpole, an Illinois hunter who figures he has killed 100 deer, most with a bow, said the practice “takes away from what hunting really is all about: getting outdoors, experiencing nature.”

“To me, 90 percent of hunting is the experience, 10 percent is the harvest,” said Harpole, who runs a hunter’s lodge at his rural home. Bagging a buck by computer, he said, “is a lazy way of hunting.”

I will never understand people who try to justify hunting as a sport.

What hunting is all really about: getting outdoors, experiencing nature, and then killing it.

Awesome.
