Now I need some advice here from you fellow hunters. My wife aka Joey's mom is not real keen about us hunting and taking game. She seems OK with trap and skeet but does not like us hunting. She feels that you should only take game if you need the food and have no other options.
************************************************************************
Unless someone is a vegetarian I feel they have no moral grounds to stand on against hunting. Furthermore, I believe that unless the non-vegitarian has butchered a cow, or a pig, or a fowl, they are nothing but hypocritical blowhards if they take a stand against hunting.
I believe your wife's opinion is a valid one, I just don't agree with it.

"Rivers course through my dreams, rivers cold and fast, rivers well-known and rivers nameless, rivers that seem like ribbons of blue water twisting through wide valleys, narrow rivers folded in layers of darkening shadow, rivers that have eroded down deep in a mountain's belly, sculpted the land, peeled back the planet's history exposing the texture of time itself."
— Harry Middleton (Rivers of Memory)
"Each night as I haul myself onto the back of county garbage truck no. 2, there is a familiar wind, some thread of moonglow or starlight, a splatter of dark rain on my skin, something that stirs my memory, and again, if even for a brief moment, I am on some mountain river, some stretch of bright water, full of possibilities, including the possibility of trout, perhaps one that, when hooked, will haul me in and out of time, in and out of life's mysterious and frightening, wondrous and incomprehensible continuum, even to the edges of the universe." -- Harry Middleton
