No one likes to be preached at--but just read some of the posts here and you'll understand why vegetarians and vegans are so defensive. And if every time you were asked to dinner, you were served a dish of lettuce--you'd become pretty surly too.
Yeah I agree to a degree.
No, I don't agree really - I think! We should become more wilder ourselves, in my utopia every family has at least an uncle that hunts regularly and brings game home to all his relatives.

Hey, I admitted room for caring about other people unconditionally!!!
maybe at least an artichoke next time?
That would be catastrophic to the deer population and ecosystem.
Really. Can't say I've ever noticed it, and most certainly not from my dysfunctional parents.
.. well, if you put enough sugar in the stew probably. The Ancient Greek tragedy about the revenge of Medea pops in my mind, she took vengeance on her ex by murdering her own sons to Jason, cooked them, and then served them to him. The conclusion of this story, aside from dont be around your ex after the divorce, is be very cautious about what you eat slash what other ppl serve ya. The vegetarians also have vices btw, for example they are unable to devour the heart & the liver of a serial killer or a nazi to make a point, as condemnation of certain ideology in the latter case or deeds of this individual in the first one.
and their definition of living things actally don't include small worms and microbes. I have seen their propaganda first hand in Nepal where they co-opted buddhist monasteries along with it. That is why most of the Tibetan monasteries in nepal/india are veg only now and not a few in Tibet. The monks would starve to death imitating Buddhist monks of India/China before admitting that they need meat diet especially in high Himalayas and plateaus. There is no native vegetables ... even the word for vegetable is a loanword from Chinese .Clever man, I read all this stuff as a kid, took the book from the local library back then in the old times, the dumb commies didnt have much of parental control, if only Jason was a vegetarian and Oedipus was an eunuch.
Nah, catastrophic is a bit strong I think — but okay, maybe ”second cousin” and not uncle then.
As for the eco-system, they’re not that crucial. At least here ALL deer can be hunted ANYWHERE in the country from like oktober to january this year. So yeah, regulation of some kind is probably necessary but I really don’t think it needs to be ”heavy”…If your "argument" is an irony the reply is #461, if it is to be taken literally, it is #459 and if there is any other interpretation, maybe you care to explain.
About the legal framework, maybe you should discuss with someone more knowledgeable of the subject, I do think there should be legislation to protect them from us when necessary and not only out off the benefits they might pose for us, but out of respect and acknowledgment that they are too sentient beings; and maybe, regarding cats and dogs, that legislation could ban the possession of such animals or restrict it to small specimens and the number each person might have, both thinking on their well being, ours, and environmental protection.
