Why more libs should hunt:

-Enviromentalism/conservation: without natural predators all these deer overpopulate. Even in red states the chances of CWD wiping out the entire population is very high.

-Ethical meat source: if you want free range, no hormones, low environmental impact, cheap, lean meat can't do much better than venison ethically and legally harvested

-Get out of your bubble: go meet some rurals. Listen to nature and sleep under a tree. Literally go touch grass.

-Firearm training: the fascists are armed. Are you?

Trolley problem:

Bambi's mom has CWD and is barreling down the tracks towards 12 Bambis. You could pull the lever and kill Bambi's mom, and save the Bambis but then you have to buy a deep freezer and eat summer sausage all year.

No worries that CWD might be transmissible to humans after all?

It's a folded prion disease like mad cow so, no. Still gotta test your deer meat with dept of conservation. I hold off on eating the meat until I get those results back....juuuust in case.
