Killing animals for food is different than for sport.

Actually it isn't. If you are bothered by animals being killed then you would never say anything like this.

lol I'm vegetarian so fail from you. I just understand there's a difference between killing animals for consumption, than for sport, even if I support neither.

I think this is a valid point, eating meat isn't a necessity any more after all and a lot of the animals we eat everyday live far worse lives than hunted animals do

Humans are omnivores, we are meant to eat meat. Eating meat to sustain yourself is diffrent from killing for fun. The fact that someone gets pleasure out of killing another living creature is quite worrying if you ask me.

That is just not true MTVN. While meat-eating is not a necessity, we are omnivores, built to eat meat, and it's a major source of protein. The standards of animal care in the UK are amongst the best in Europe. More and more people are buying Freedom Food, organically reared and free-range meat... More and more people are turning away from foreign-raised meat and conditions are improving all the time - and that is being customer-led.

Shooting an animal takes a lot of skill. Gamekeepers and people who keep the numbers of certain animals controlled, shoot to kill. Most people who blast away with a shotgun (or airgun) because it makes them feel hard have no conception of the damage they do to some animals who drag themselves away to die a lingering death. They should take up clay pigeon... but unfortunately for them you have to be a pretty good shot.

Actually... it is very different. And actually... if you know anything about it at all you'd realise how silly your comment is.

Actually it is....1 is a basic human need for survival, the other is killing for no reason other than pleasure.
