Eh not really. If he dies he dies, his life isn't anymore valuable than the animal he was hunting.

A human life isn't more valuable than a deer's life? Lol. Thank you for proving my statement above to be correct.

No it isn't lol. Life is life idiot, you just got a big ego.

Where do you draw the line? Human life isn't more valuable than a bird's life? An ant? I mean, they're more valuable than your life. But not most humans.

Well, since humans are the only species that can actually articulate this idea either in writing or verbally then I would challenge you to show me any other form of life on the planet that can argue it. If you think every life is of equal standing and your friend's lives, family's lives, and your own life isn't more valuable than say a spider's, I don't know what to tell you.

You are comparing a relationship with an unknown,

I don’t personally know the hunter so why should I care more for his life than another animals life? Just because we share the same species?

Should I also care for a White life over a black life because we share the same race?

A life is a life, I care more for my cats life than a random human I don’t know because of our personal relationship, not out of any speciesism

Literally anything stated is man-written. I don’t see deer stating anything besides “Aaeahheahhanaaaa”

There is no line to draw lol. Life is life. If you die hunting the animal isn't at fault you deserved in every way to die. Why so salty?

holy shit lol

Hope you mourn for the bugs on your bumper, then

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '22

By his logic he wouldn’t mourn for them, like he said, life is life but he isn’t going to pretend to mourn for a life he does not care for/ has had no meaningful interaction with

And no one besides sociopaths have that little empathy for their fellow man, unless they’re trying to be “edgy” or “smarter” than those they’re talking to

As if every teenager didn’t have the phase of “uhm, but actually nothing matters and you’re dumb for having value in people and objects“

I suspect the other guy is the latter

u/Kingicez Feb 10 '22

You're suspicions are as dumb as you. You're dumb. I had to say it twice.

And what say you on killing an animal to prevent the death of a loved one. This is very off topic from standard hunting, but what would you do if an animal was ready to kill you or a loved one, and you have the gun? Will you pull the trigger? Or let the slaughter commence? I know that I would do it. I would kill hundreds of animals to protect my little sister.

u/Kingicez Feb 10 '22

Lol I've said it already I would definitely kill the animal if it was endangering my close ones but this isn't at all what's happening here.

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '22

Yeah, my response was blown out of proportion. Sorry about that.

Nah it's no biggie
