    That's rarely done with deer. Mostly done with large animals (bear, moose, etc.) and on horseback. Everything is taken except the guts and bones. Other animals dispose of them.
    Common sense is not a gift, it's a punishment because you have to deal with everyone who doesn't have it.

    I've seen those guys on that TV show "Mountain Men" take the loins and back legs and leave the rest behind. If I ever decide to report someone it would be them.

    I always feel worst for the non-hunters that the hunters kill.

    Have you ever killed an animal, Walt? It's a bag of emotions. We honor the sacrifice so we can eat. Do you do that when you go shopping?

    Is it possible to live a life without killing any animals? I doubt it is for a human.

    You are a more sensitive person than I. I don't like killing mammals, but I don't cry over insects.

    What does this have to do with insects? Do you honor the food you buy at a grocery store? It's what separates souls from the soulless.

    It has nothing to do with religion. It's about the taking of life.

    "Honoring" the soul of dead animals is a religious thing.

    I respect your religion, but I really do not have have the faith that you do. Sorry.

    I need evidence, faith is useless to me. Everything you buy at a grocery store has been kept in a cage before slaughter. Who knows what steroids and antibiotics they're full of.
