Nope... not poor form, just reminding you that this is a "discussion"!
As a wise man once said, "To often we enjoy the comfort of opinion without the discomfort of thought!"
You stated an adversarial opinion without expressing reasoning behind it. In other words you didn't have a point. Look back at the Kung Flu posts of yours.... same thing!
OP has been torn apart on here for essentially stating the facts about predator management and how Patagonia's aggressive anti- hunting propaganda is misaligned with general hunter/conservationist principles.
If we are hunters in today's world, we are managers of game.
Predator management, like it or not, is certainly an element of quality game management as we know and expect it today. Is there a prey/predator balance? Surely but, in a lot of instances; as he alludes (yet didn't exactly spell out but, was clear to me and others), predator management is vital and what some would even call the heavy lifting in providing the opportunity for that "buck a year"! Is everyone going to actively hunt a wolf, bear or coyote? No, but, we should all be thankful for those who do as legal opportunity presents itself because those efforts generally provide positive results however, one may feel about participating....
Who could doubt that Patagonia does good things for the environment that, we, as hunters would appreciate much more if they would lay off the polarizing antics. I appreciate anything they do to protect the resource but, I will not spend a dime with a company who is so emphatic about demonizing a segment of their customer base through storefronts or through pity payments to anti-hunting elements!
Patagonia.... pffffttt!!!!
