    Yeah it's true. She even wants to pass a law to be able let airplanes used to shoot these wolves. No wonder their numbers are less and less, eh?

    But don't take my word for it, look at this:

    Funny thing is, once in an interview, she stated that she was against abortion because she "values life." Well, obviously she doesn't REALLY value her life, because if those wolf and bear lives are gone, all the balance of the ecosystem there will collapse and eventually, she's realize what kind of ****tard she really is.

    For me as a wildlife enthusiast, this hits home quite hard.

    Your thoughts?

    It's things like this that keep me from liking Palin or McCain, they just have a ****ed up sense of morality and they're hypocrites in every way possible. I don't give a **** how much "experience" a person has, if you're ******ed enough to allow for the death of an entire species of animals by hunting them with AIRPLANES, you are not getting my damned vote.

    I really don't think this is true. It seems pretty fake to me. Call me wrong, but that's my opinion.

    It's actually been stated by her several times.

    Another thing, personally, I think hunting on foot would be more appropriate, because from the sky there is an unnatural advantage.

    Ok two things:

    1. Whats with Hisora's ****ed up dancing fox thing?

    2. Why would Republicans want to kill off all the wolves using airplanes?

    If they are gonna do it, they should do it MAN TO MAN (er, wolf?).

    This is why I hate bothe parties: all they do is attack each other and try to gain personal power for themselves.

    Sarah Palin is just not a woman I care for. It wouldn't surprise me if she would back something like this because she's so superficial and full of herself. Killing off natural predators is just ignorant and it's why now we have overpopulation of deer and other animals and in winters they starve to death. Oh well.

    That is awful! I'm all for hunting! As long as it is for food. But killing animals from a plane is just disgraceful. Especially when it's an animal that is killed for sport. Talk about unfair advantage.

    People seem to forget that she is also a "Young Earth" creationist. Not the most rational or sane people.

    This is taking leisure hunting (which I already believe should be banned as, to be perfectly honest) to an all new ridiculous level. She should be released into the forest and hunted from an airplane and see how she likes it >.>

    Yeah, the thought of shooting something from an airplane just doesn't seem all that macho. Why would anyone even pay to use a plane just to hunt wolves? This must be a rich coward thing.

    Republicans. That's all I need to say. Republicans and their ****ed-up, conservative, irrational politics.

    if she was thrown to be hunted upon.....

    i would agree with that.

    the wolves are far more deserving creatures of life , than she will ever be....

    I have to say now that these people are not truly conservative the way I see it. They spend money freely-- no, liberally on frivolous things and try to destroy established order when it actually has some semblance of working. However this is off topic.

    Hunting, as I've already claimed, is utterly pointless in a country like America. You destroy predators if some idiot gives them a taste of how easy to get we are, that's it. Otherwise it's just pointless.

    Oh, geez.

    This is ridiculous. Wolves don't really pose as a threat to us, if I recall correctly. If I'm wrong, correct me, but I don't think they're much of a threat to us. They're not our predators. I don't find hunting to be a game, and this is exactly what she is saying by letting them do this freely...by plane. Unfair advantage. Extremely unfair advantage.

    Like others said, put her down on the ground and let people shoot her, no arguments. Then she'll see exactly what's wrong with the picture.

    I find it funny how she's getting more publicity than McCain, the one who's actually running for President. So stupid. Topics like this disgust me. People like this disgust me.

    Unfortunately this country is a country where the media chooses the leaders, so yes.

    Put yourself in the shoes of that wolf, running away from an enemy that you can't possibly escape and is going to kill you for no apparent reason. I understand that hunting helps to keep animal population under control, but when you consider the people going out there on foot and the cost to rent the plane and buy the fuel, then it's just cruel overcompensation and completely pointless.

    In some areas, the wolf is considered a pest and a threat. Here in Wisconsin the wolf has been removed from 'threatened' status and farmers CAN shoot them if they think the wolf is a threat to their livestock.

    However, I don't see people renting planes to go hunting wolves what with the price of gas what it is and the ridiculous cost of renting one in the first place. Not to mention the time it takes to get a hunting license. It's not like the Department of Natural Resources is going to give them to just anyone.

    Not to mention that you'd need incredible aim to shoot anything from a plane/helicopter or a good gun with a scope. But even then, if your aim is off you're not going to hit anything. If I were a wolf, I wouldn't be presenting an aerial hunter with a stationary target.

    Wolves are not dumb animals. Give them a little credit.

    EDIT:

    Also in some countries, wolves have been hunted for years due to superstitions. Like in Europe, wolves were killed for being a demon who would kill children at the earliest opportunity. And in a time when superstition and religious fervor ran rampent...not to mention populations were dwindling due to disease and poor crops.

    That has to be the stupidest thing in the world. I like wolves and I thik it's okay to kill them out of self-defense (unlikely) but why kill them from the air. Whats the point. This is just another political poperatzi drawing. All this is going to do is make the media want to get more into politics. LAME!

    I can't argue about it. I mentioned this in school and my teacher said that they are two different things.

    However, my teacher did state that she IS against animal cruelty but still, as much as I said she kept saying there is nothing wrong with that.
    I don't like hunting animals, I can' see how its any better than killing a human. We just live in a different world(I find ours worse) and speak a different language. I wasn't able to argue with it. Only for a few minutes.
    I don't think you can eat a wolf after its been shot from a plane.

    I can see hunting to protect livestock, or to feed yourself, but from a plane. For trophy. Its wrong. You take the life of something that has family. Wolves and Bears are social creatures. Wolves WILL go after what ever tries to hurt its pack mates, and bears will just protect their young(mother will) to the death.

    I don't see how destroying a family is any good for a trophy.

    Also, Hissora, I don't approve of you calling Palin a ****tard*Braces for permaban* As much as I hate her(She can eat Red Carpet for all I care) I don't approve of that.
