The proper focus of people's ire is the culture that fosters the hunting of wild animals, not the individual hunter.
Plus, you know, if you're a meat eater, maybe turn down the moral indignation just a little bit. Cows are people too, you know.

@PhilosophyExp Didn't realize cows were an endangered species. -
@elyse4design I think the concern for "endangered species" is overblown. The world isn't going to crumble if a certain type of warbler dies -
@SuperDemocrat I think of it as a responsibility to the planet. -
@elyse4design Don't get me wrong, I'm all for saving what animals we can, just not giving preferential treatment to endangered ones. -
@SuperDemocrat That makes no sense. -
@elyse4design It makes no sense to treat all animals with equal kindness and respect? -
@SuperDemocrat Didn't you just write off that minnow?

Yes, you can. You can also treat livestock more humanely, & the resulting product is better for you.

Because we're still carnivores, and they taste good. Not saying its ideal, just advocating for balance.

That said, commercial meat production has "culture" problems of its own.
