“Hunting.” Call it what you will, including the obscenely euphemistic “harvesting,” but call it what it is: an atavism. These aren’t hunter-gatherer times any more than this is the pioneer period. This is killing as “sport” precipitated by human sprawl into bear habitats and careless waste-management practices.
And speaking of “sport,” what part of spraying prey-attracting bear scent and sitting in a tree stand in camo garb with a gun or bow-and-arrow is the “sporty” part? Call it what it is: hunting for rationales.
Plus, anything that brings Ted Nugent to our state is inherently not good.
