...two kinds of humans, those who kill and those who would never kill...only two kinds. we must ask which category we fit comfortably into and why. i believe most humans are not murderers...and had better learn to say so...NOW!the same old rationalizations of "ecological, recreational, and economic NEEDS" affixed to the old red-neck tool belt justifying mass slaughter for fun, games and profit!can only be a "sport" IF the sought after prey is armed also, right? ...or IF the "huntsmen" run naked and unarmed through the forest and wrestle with the "hunted" one on one.DNR=down with natural resources OR damage nature "religiously" OR damned nasty rules (aimed at filling state coffers with blood money for the good ole boys!)____________________Arlene Steinberg: "I know where I am - the EVOLVED category. I am Eloi, not Morlock!"Deborah Fields Perez: "I would NEVER kill!"Mary Lou Cassotto: "Me neither... couldn't even give someone a needle...but with meat, someone else does the killing for everyone. We have been trained to harden our hearts...I can remember when I was a child, not understanding adults who could take a child to a zoo and then serve meat, and then holidays like Thanksgiving, that are all about the serving of meat. The pictures online of butchering put things into perspective, though, even though they are hard to take. I could never understand how butchers lived with themselves."Shannon Basner: "Never ever will understand who takes pleasure in hunting. There are lots of sport hunters up here and it's really hard at times."Ken Ward Jr.: "'Hunters' LIVE to kill....that's all they know what to do."David Rat: "WOW! i think I will teach a class based on this..."Diane Shenkman Baumgarten: "Beautifully put, absolutely true, brilliant, Susie."Luna Dance: "There is a third, the ones that do nothing."Kim Elizabeth Johnson: "Love Susie Sexton's acronyms for Dept. of Natural Resources...Hilarious and RIGHT ON!!... I miss Cleveland Amory. His book, 'Mankind?', was one of the first books I read on my journey into vegetarianism, animal rights activism and then veganism."Paro Babu: "bestest lines ever '...two kinds of humans, those who kill and those who would never kill...only two kinds. we must ask which category we fit comfortably into and why.' Thank you, Roy for the wonderful post and a BIG THANKS to Susie who owns these fabulous words..."Redness Sharethelove: "VERY TRUE, Roy. An eye for an eye is TOTALLY wrong. It is Love that can solve and fix EVERYTHING."Kathy Bostwick: "Wow - such a good read and if you really don't like something - turn around and walk away - it's not hard - this is yet another reason I prefer my cats to most people...Susie, it was your love of animals that drew me to your page and it's that love that keeps me here (trust me, my house can testify to my online time)! We could learn so much from the animals."Annie Gagnon: "Nothing like mother and child, don't care what species it is!!!! Animals my first love! Susie is second and then Roy, lol!"Joseph Armentano: "Oh, by the way, we got the book very promptly. For now, by way of reviews, we love the cover and the titles throughout! crazy busy at the moment, will get back to you when we have a chance to get into the stories!"Scottie Belt: "Susie Sexton .... Thank you for your great love for animals and the energy you have dedicated. Cant imagine life without our animals which have enhanced our lives. God makes all things GREAT! Thank you! "It was Martin Luther King who said “Returning violence for violence multiplies violence, adding deeper darkness to a night already devoid of stars. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”Remember this insight: “An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.”____________________Read about movies and nostalgia, animal issues and sociopolitical concerns all discussed in my book Secrets of an Old Typewriter - print and ebook versions available (click the title to order from publisher Open Books' website).
