Threads like these read like something you'd expect to find on one of those whack job PETA fansites.

"Why couldn't the deer have won! Yay murder! Depriving children of their father is so righteous because he dared participate in hunting!"

Some posters really need to check their priorities. If you place human life below animal life in terms of survival well....yeah.

I love my pets, but I'd not hesitate to defend myself if they attacked me.
