Do you claim to be a moral person?

One would not know it from that post.

I agree with you on this. (But it may be a rare instance).

Hunting tells you a lot about a person. Mostly it tells you that the person does not mind taking a life. Taking the life of an intelligent creature that is not a threat, that is not even bothering you.

I know all the blah-blah-blah about setting your table. But the real reason to go in woods hunting is that you enjoy the kill. You consider it "sport" to blow their brains out.

It is entirely predictable that hunters, and the kids they teach to hunt, will be predisposed to violence.

Typical cruel, insensitive & clueless response from a
groupthink liberal. The murderer is now a victim & the
murdered got what they deserved.

That speaks volumes for so-called intellectual elitists who
have more compassion for the food on my plate than for a
human being who has just been brutally murdered.

And this vicious murderer shot unarmed people.......

....Around noon on Sunday some of them, apparently unarmed, noticed an unfamiliar man in their hunting platform. They called back to their cabin on a walkie-talkie to ask if anyone had permission to use it. When told that no one did, they asked the intruder to leave.

After the shooting began, one victim managed to call the cabin again. Several friends immediately came to help; the shooter attacked them, too.

Robert Crotteau, 42, and his 20-year-old son, Joey, were among the dead. The lone woman to die, Jessica Willert, 27, was the daughter of a wounded man, Terry Willert. Al Laski, 43, and Mark Roidt, 28, were the remaining two who died on Sunday. Dennis Drew was reported to have died late Monday. Mr. Drew's brother-in-law, Lauren Hesebeck, was wounded.

Mr. Meier said the killer probably chased his victims down as they tried to flee.....

at least there are some animals now who are not going to be murdered by those five.

My God. This is shocking and abominable.

I read your comment after responding, at length, to your dismissal of The Economist's article I linked yesterday.

I take back the comment I made that you represent the more intelligent Dem voter. You are clearly unhinged. A teacher, to boot.

Please ban me.

I have absolutely no use for anyone who can make a statement seriously justifying cold-blooded murder.

Live by the gun, die by the gun . . . at least there are some animals now who are not going to be murdered by those five

Actually that number will be seven (six hunters) if you include Vang, the accused killer. Maybe you were leaving him off because of his good deed.
