Sebastian pointed out the hunting variation of the &#8220;I&#8217;m a gun owner but&#8230;&#8221; rationale.<\/p>\n<p>Clayton Cramer had this great comment in the comments section:<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"tr_bq\"><p>\n<i>Whenever I run into a Fudd, I remind them of one really ugly fact: most of us \u201cextremists\u201d are trying to defend gun rights because of self-defense. If the right to protect yourself from a murderer, rapist, or robber isn\u2019t sufficient reason to own a gun, what makes you think that having a gun for <\/i>entertainment <i>is going to be a good enough reason?<\/i><br \/>\n<i><br \/><\/i><br \/>\n<i>We all hang together, or we will most assuredly all hang separately.<\/i><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>While a counter-argument could be made that a firearm is necessary to feed one&#8217;s family, very few people in this country exist anymore on what they hunt or what they gather.<\/p>\n<p>Clayton&#8217;s assertion that we need to hang together is spot-on. I rarely hunt anymore but I&#8217;ll defend both meat hunters and trophy hunters against the PETAfiles. I just ask that they try and return the favor.<\/p>\n<div style=\"margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: 0px;\" class=\"sharethis-inline-share-buttons\" ><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The comment of the day actually comes from this past Saturday.
