It’s winter. I’m soon to have a knee replaced and in the mean time, spend time sitting with a Polar Pack wrapped around it,..so it seems reasonable to resurrect a philosophical, August thread.

My first reaction was, a sportsman swatting water fowl on the water is anathema (nothing related to academic). However, I wouldn’t hesitate killing a bull elk or buck in its bed if given the opportunity. It was. And I did.

Assuming, they’re legal, I imagine our disparate views are based on the hunting culture we were raised in, how things were done. Propriety, and all that.
