I, thankfully, grew out of that phase of my life. I don't even kill spiders nowadays.

I voted "Hunted all my life / Still do" . I'm a 62 year-old Latino conservative Democrat & lifelong city-slicker.

I don't hunt, but because the eco system is off balance, hunting is needed to keep some populations in check.
