RE: Canada TV personality Steve Ecklund Kills Cougar And Brags About It
If he had a hungry family to feed he wouldn't have taken this picture.
Is he sad that he had to kill another animal in order to eat? doesn't look like it to me. Not everyone feels sad to eat meat, no need.
Maybe just not being so happy next to this wonderful, but now dead, animal would do for me.
But you're missing a point that I made in my first post. If you eat meat, you indirectly contribute to the death of that animal, because you are part of the demand that is bringing in future supply of meat. Do people that eat meat cry from sadness that the animal was killed in order for them to eat it? No. They smile and share jokes with their friends and family around the dinner table as they wipe the blood off their mouths with a napkin.
Do you not see the hypocrisy?
The only difference here is that this man provided it for himself (and his family) instead of having someone else do the killing and butchering.
It's analogous to choosing between murdering someone yourself or hiring a hitman to do it. Either way, you're contributing to a murder.
Yes, that is something to think about.
