As our unerring bullets fly,
May this ever be our cry:
Eat THIS, Zargonian scum!
You'll wish to Earth you'd never come.

-- Anthem of the Zargonian Hunters

Death to the Zargonians! No quarter asked or given!

Let's hope it has the desired effect on herbivore methane production.

We will put the "Arrrgh!" and the "gone" in "Zargon."

We in the gun culture know that animals are superior in strength, endurance, sight, hearing, scenting, vibration sensing, and have the advantage of natural camouflage and intimate knowledge of their surroundings. If THEY were hunting US, they'd kick our ... hams. A deer is steel cable under that soft, pretty hide. Sometimes they do. Hunters come home empty-handed, or not at all.

And have these anti-hunting people ever BOUGHT meat at the store? That just means they're a couple of steps removed from the act of killing. It's still done on their behalf.
My limited hunting career taught me to REALLY appreciate flesh foods. I never just chow down thoughtlessly anymore. When you've seen the creature fall, looked in its eye, field-dressed it, washed and wrapped the meat, a package of meat is no longer just something you get for $3.99 a pound for the asking.
