no i am saying, if you run cats over, your argument just lost all merit,(not that you had any previously) maybe i will bring her to utah and let her eat all the pretty birds in and around your house, she loves birds, the prettier the better, nature takes its course.(food chain) what kinda spearing you doin in utah anyway? . at lest not without a dry suit. do you shoot lake fish? how sporting is that? not too many sharks in a lake so atlest it is safe for ya. do you even spear? or just like arguing about it?

you have got my position confused with others, i am a killer and not worried about it. my personal position is, unless it is endangered of extinction or NEEDED i feel it is not IMMORAL to kill it. i may not choose to do so, but it is MY choice for MY life and morality doesnt come into play

Hey mate, you started the thread so you should expect all kinds of reactions! There is nothing wrong in that but if you light the touch-paper you will get fireworks! No-one is ganging up on you, it's an emotional subject...

i was talking about other threads, laser pointer anyone? emotions have no place here in my opinion. gang up all you want on this thread, so far i see us killers are slaying the bleeding hearts in the debate thus far. if you kill anything, ANYTHING, you didnt HAVE to kill to survive,(insects birds rats fish cats) AND are a strict vegetarian ,then you dont have a MORAL leg to stand on in this argument . all of us with IQ's in the triple digits can see this crystal clearly

yeah we get some decent spearing in the lakes arround here and they are kinda cold in the summer they are good though, about 60-75 depending on the lake. we don have sharks but we do have blue gill which are pretty much an american piranah, I once had a very traumatic experiance with one in wich i almost lost my left nipple.
 

wait, what?
 
thats funny, (not for you im sure)actually i lost part of my left nipple to a cat when i was about 10, very traumatic for me also. come to think of it i dont like cats either now,.........where is my speargun.....here kitty kitty
