It's humanity that is missing.

Most kids are bloodthirsty. That's natural. But maturity, mercy, and ethics are all things that are learned.

We are better than what was portrayed in that video.

That is the lesson that should be learned.


Yes sir.
I think mercy and compassion are also natural traits, but need to be nurished and reenforced as a part of maturing.


As an aside, animal cruelity laws aint gonna do us, as hunters, any favors. Trump making it a felony is no bueno IMO.
