        how long do flu germs last on a blanket? I say a day at most. My wife says, "I don't give a shit I'm washing it you pig." Who's right?

        Seeing that deer eaten by wolves or bears are commonly eaten alive and asshole (soft tissue) first, why would they dedicate their heaven to the predator who is cognizant of humane hunting? 🤔🤔🤔

        Human hunting? Humane killing? Sounds like an oxymoron. Humane - (having or showing compassion or benevolence) Compassionate killing? Benevolent killing? Bullshit haha.

        Are you proposing that hunting isn't a natural human activity? B'cuz your capacity to even ponder such complex thoughts is the result of your animal-eating ancestors who, w/o hunting, would not have evolved the energy-draining, complex-thoughtful brain you just used to reply.

        Fair enough, but it's not 'humane'. That's all. There's nothing humane about it.

        That's not true. A humanely hunted deer is never even aware a human was in the area. Say that about the bear who gives zero fucks about a humane kill shot to the lungs. I think you should look into hunting a bit more, you'll likely find it is not the evil deed you believe it is.

        I'm very ignorant about hunting or any sort of biological/innate drive withing the human mind to hunt. My whole point is about 'humane killing' To forcefully and permanently take away the consciousness of a fellow being is never humane. Let's just agree to disagree

        You know, if we didn't hunt deer their populations would skyrocket. Eventually they would either starve in mass numbers or a disease would wipe them out. And if you eat meat, killing a wild animal is much more humane than buying factory farmed meat from a store.

        @sandman9217 took the words right out of my mouth. The torture animals suffer in factory farming is horrific as opposed to the deer being hunted & taken with one quick shot. Always laugh when people complain about hunting while eating a burger.

        Nah. It's all headlights all the time, but instead of cars they're attached to fluffy pillows so they can jump into them with abandon.
