The soft, bleeding heart of pro-animal-ism went up against the hard edge of pro-gun-ism this week in response to writer Carolyn Szczepanski's blog "'Funeral motorcade' for Shawnee Mission Park deer this afternoon." The result: new words like "speciesism," and some bottom-brow hilarity.

Part one of this week's three part Comment of the Week goes to Beazley, whose comment touched off a mini-thread on male-hunter endowment and the sexual tastes of deer lovers.

Given that the natural world is based fully on given species violently hunting other species, I'd say that the Animal Rights ppl don't dislike hunting, you just dislike people who like hunting....which kinda makes you the assholes.
Oh yeah, feel that pithiness. But quoting a lengthy come-back by Stacey Rakic, commenter Miriam deVore wrote:
Stacey, you said:

Hunters need to compensate for their small, powerless lives by acting maliciously.

***********
It has been scientifically proven that there are other things about hunters that are small and powerless.
To which John replied:
what do you rug munchers care about penis size?
Though we at The Pitch try to encourage substantive debate on the issues, everyone loves a good laugh from time-to-time.

While it's unlikely that the two sides are going to agree on anything, and more deer will be killed in all likelihood, we suggest the three of you crazy kids get together for some Jimmy Dean sausage or a piece of vegan cake.

You're right. Everyone likes a good laugh now and then. But there's nothing funny about killing other animals for the sheer pleasure of it. Pass the vegan cake!
