Let's look at some basic definitions, shall we?
Main Entry: hunt·ing
Function: noun
1 : the act of one that hunts; specifically : the pursuit of game
Main Entry: hunt
Function: verb
1 a : to pursue for food or in sport <hunt buffalo>
Main Entry: pur·sue
1 : to follow in order to overtake, capture, kill, or defeat
Hmmm, so to me, it sounds like hunting involves the hunter to actually follow the animal. Track it. Stalk it. Follow the tracks. Use his/her brain to figure out where the animal went, or where it might go.
Now, sitting at a deer feeder in a tree stand waiting for an animal to come along to eat is NOT hunting. It's not even close to hunting. It's waiting for an animal to walk in front of your sights on its way to a FEEDER! Holy crap. What an idiot to call himself a hunter. Seems like we've forgotten the true meaning and definition of "hunting."
So, maybe this "wonderful" hunter :barf: would think I'm hunting HIM if I sit across the street behind cover w/ a sniper rifle and shoot him while he's sitting at the dining room table eating dinner?
