There is a link on CNN’s homepage the last 48 hours, the headline:
NHL Player Ripped for Beheading Grizzly
It’s a link to the bleacherreport website. Clayton Stoner
Apparently a Mn Wild hockey player was recently successful on a grizzly hunt in British Columbia. The amount of hatred and venom being spewed his way is unbelievable. I get it, people don’t eat grizzly bear, it’s a trophy hunt. This can be hard for some to accept.
When I look at how popular hunting and fishing continues to become, just look at all the camo clothes out there now days. Prom to wedding formal wear, I think we are making progress. Then spend 10 minutes on any prominent Facebook page like Eva Shockey’s. She’s getting ripped by the anti’s daily. Then I see this article on Mr. Stoner and I’m just disgusted and reminded how diligent we must all be for our great sports to survive.
It doesn’t matter if you are a bow hunter, muzzleloader person or traditional archery, we must all band together to continue this fight. The extreme side of the political whackos are coming for us each and everyday. We must continue to introduce our children to the outdoors and show them all the glorious benefits it offers us. We must teach them that renewable resources need managed properly. It’s on US!!
I am a hunter, I will not apologize!!
