Lynn Thompsons knife sell off?

what's truly sickening is
the insane pleasure seeking thrill
of wild game hunting.
it is an utterly disgraceful past time
and a stain on all mankind.
why the destructive pursuit
of empty bravado??
its simply horrible and twisted .to cause
the intentional death of an unsuspecting animal in this misguided and monsterous act for recreational activity.
there is no excuse for crimes against nature...retribution awaits the guilty.

I respect your post, and the moral courage it took to post it knowing the negative reaction it might cause.

You ask why. I assume you mean why now, why today when hunting is unnecessary and meat can be obtained without paying the conscious moral cost of killing the thing yourself. If so, that is the answer. Some men hunt and kill by proxy, they write the check and unseen animals are slaughtered by strangers.

Other men acknowledge who and what men are, the understand that we are predators who-- like all life -- can only exist feeding on the corpses of the fallen. They accept this truth and resolve to do at least some of that killing themselves. Some even up the challenge, choosing a handgun or bow, or in Lynn Thompson's case, a spear. What price do you pay? Something you should perhaps think about.

Anyway, good post.
 
thank you for being respecful of my post.
i am sorry if its ruffled some feathers here.
with all due respect
its probably my fault for not
specifying that it was
big game trophy hunting
that i was up in arms about.
i have nothing to say
about food sourcing
except that the natural scheme of things
everthing falls wittin the food chain system
ie big fish eating little fish etc.
yes we still have to kill to survive.
that is a fact we cannot run from.
as we speak science is working on
artificialiy grown meat.
i wouldn''t touch that just yet!
coming back to the issue, what
i do have a hard time understanding
is the need to hunt down elephants
big cats and the likes for sports and not
as an act of personal survival. hope that's cleared.
nature has a way of resolving pipulation.
its has been doing so without human intervention.
artificially keeping down the numbers through culling is just some guy maaking money and blames it on human animal conflicts brought about by loss of natural habitats cause by you know who and what. its a sad and tragic picture for animals everywhere both captive and free. future genetations will have to pay for the imbalance of nature.

I don't know why people trophy hunt. I have never done it.

Perhaps it is similar to a phenomenon I see in the knife world. Some people, and I am one of them, consider self defense an essential part of my role as a man. That's one reason I appreciate Cold Steel and their martial offerings. But that's just me. Perhaps hunters see what they do in the same way -- as something that is a necessary part of who they are.
 
taking out magnificent "beast"?
analyzing it as a shallow show of power
probably by instinctively competitive individuals
who enjoy showing who's boss.
just try practicing this act of superiority
on another human
and the one with more brains have
a higher chance of beating brawn
in an open hunt.
point is, what is there to be gained from
defeating a lesser thinking being
with tools and paid help?
its a grossly unfair advantage .
its a false and flawed competition
what legacy is that to pass on
to following generations?
all llving things were placed here on this good earth
to keep the natural order of things (and each other) in check the natural way.
great or small, have their niche roles cut out
missing species tends to destabilise the status quo. and because living things are interdependent, replacing roles of natural selection in the area of dominance will send the natural order of things crashing in an existing ecology.
in time, hunting knives would shorten in length and over all size.😤
unless we are all participants of " fhe "hunger games ".

I remember reading that hunting endangered species can actually be more conservative than not hunting them. It sounds twisted, but with the money that has to be paid in order to hunt can be used to preserve and protect the rest of the population - where other ways of funding are not possible. That being said it is sad in it's own right and I do not support or understand it with endangered species but sadly in some cases it might be the best solution.
Problem isn't that some of the animals attack us but because there simply are too many humans around and they invade the natural habitat of these animal.
 
Its all about the money, anybody here sending money to the Preserves so they don't need to have these hunts? I don't understand the appeal, but then I don't understand much of anything going on in the news nowadays.
Any news on the sell off lol!
