To be sure, neither we nor we would say most Coloradans are opposed to hunting properly managed by wildlife authorities: especially when the hunt is actually for consumption in addition to sport. Hunting plays a role in regulating animal populations in the West, and the Colorado Parks and Wildlife does a good science-based job administering hunting in our state.
Don't they mean Glamping w/ Little Donnie? And how can he hold that rifle with such tiny hands?
"Yeah we're evil. So what?"
I'm as city-slicker as they come, but I think there's a distinction within Big Game Hunting for food or trophies.It would be interesting to see a survey making that a choice.
I think few of us efette liberals have as big a problem with someone feeding their extended family for the winter off an Elk as we do with Douchebag von Fuckface posing with the Elephant's tail he'll soon be displaying at his Park Avenue triplex.
Of course the Elk will be gracing the walls of the hunting lodge, but at least they can talk about how good the sausage was.
Absolutely. Certainly those of us who aren't vegetarians (that would very much include me) don't have much of a leg to stand on criticizing those who have a more direct relationship with the meat they eat. We just prefer to pay others to do the killing for us, out of sight out of mind.
The young Drumpf, however, represents the lowest form of trophy hunter, the kind of rich coward who participates in "hunts" where the animals are pretty much hand delivered to the would be great white hunters so they can feel like real men.
Apparently daddy isn't the only one with small…ummmm…. hands issues.
He's a chip off the old cow chip.
Hope there will be a report of what is meant by "policies that benefit sportsmen in the West’s public lands." Will it be full-on support of the Bundy clan's approach, oblique reference to some of his alt-right talking points, or simply suggest diminishing the National Parks and mandating "shared governance" for other public lands?
I disagree with your point that CPW is a good manager of this state's wildlife. That agency, like so many state wildlife agencies, suppresses predators so that prey animals are more readily available for hunters. It does this because the sale of hunting permits benefits its budget and because there is a vast bureaucratic tendency to regard predators suspiciously.
Today, in Denver, the state's game and fish commission will be deciding whether to authorize many more killings of black bears and cougars so that the number of deer can be increased. This is exactly what I'm talking about.
No, CPW does not do a good job managing our wildlife. It perpetuates a long-outdated myth that there would be too many animals in the wild if humans did not hunt them and another, even more ridiculous, notion that predator control is good wildlife management. The ecosystem is what matters. Not hunting.
I think the point is they do a better job than Zimbabwe.
