I believe you are attempting to change the subject from Barack Obama's comments on hunting to a post I made last night in an entirely different thread. Although, now that you bring it up, there are similarities. The subject had turned to castration and I merely provided information on how it is actually done. I used an example of cattle.
Perhaps it is my working class origins that you object to. Educated liberals with comfortable incomes usually do not have work that involves castrating calves, nor to they usually have to hunt rabbits for food.
I don't think that it is good manners to ridicule the ways that people get their living whether they be strippers or writers of ranch hands.
People are driven by necessity to do lots of things to put food on the table, including sometimes killing it.
I also think that people who are running for office should not imply that the people whose support they are seeking are bigots or religious cripples or gun-toting rednecks.
Just my personal thoughts.
