Now, hunting to feed your family, that’s different. But we can go to the supermarket these days. Not that slaughter houses are any less cruel than hunting for sport, of course. But a slaughter house is just a business, the business of feeding the population. Hunting for sport, killing helpless animals, is somehow fun for the people that do it. I don’t get what is fun about it to you.

There's always at least one...
I'm not a hunter but I do eat meat. I'd imagine taking the animal yourself would be much more rewarding an experience than shuffling on down to the local grocery store to pick out what you like, leaving the nasty business to the slaughter houses. Probably healthier too.
