    Plenty of the holier than thou statements in this thread do, however, rub me the wrong way
    Everyone is entitled to their opinion. My thoughts about this are posted earlier in the thread.

    Edit add: I'd love it if you would post a quote of any "holier than thou statements" that rubbed you the wrong way...since we are painting with what seem like very broad strokes of the brush.

    I don't know about anyone else, but with exception of the part in red, the rest of your post rubs me the wrong way.

    That naturalist forgot to mention the common house cat. Sure the farm cat and the feral cat eat what they kill, but "Fluffy" just plays with it till its dead and then walks away...

    I would not recommend using that phrase towards any of your Latino acquaintances ...... violence likely (with Central Americans violence VERY likely).

    Add a couple more to the list.

    Murder 'comes naturally' to chimpanzees

    Think you probably can throw cats on there also, I know mine are evil little creatures.

    Man definitely kills for sport. I've always been of the mindset that it should only be done to put food on the table.

    Cats on the other hand:

    Surf, I'd like a picture of you typing that with a straight face.....

    I am strongly in support of permitting bowfishermen to regulate the population. I don't know any sports fishermen targeting them and that is what it takes to manage a species....targeted fishing.
    Also, I don't think anyone should be permitted to badmouth bowfishermen who are within the regs set up by DNR unless they kept their "Just keep one" pledge from last spring. I don't badmouth anyone for keeping their limit, even though I never did......but it sticks in my craw when a guy complains that another fisherman should show restraint, but not he himself.
    It's easy to point fingers. There are plenty of trailer sailors that hate kayakers. There is a guy at ST Jeromes that will cast right at you just to try and drive you off (even if the yakker is there first) due to their sense of entitlement. I hate to see us behaving the same way.
