Rites of Passage

Hunters insist it's not the killing they enjoy but the challenge of the chase. Baloney! What's the challenge in slaughtering a distant animal with a high-powered rifle and magnifying scope? If hunters really sought to test their tracking skills, they'd use a Nikon instead of a Winchester.

Most predators kill only when hungry; trouble is, Man is always hungry!

"Hunting teaches boys valuable lessons." Any that couldn't be learned from less lethal forms of recreation?

Our sons deserve rites of passage that are life-affirming.
