Dogs are a part of our families, so of course many will react somewhat irrationally when it comes to their killing. Killing humans is obviously worse than killing a dog, and I think Carlson comes off more than a little silly in this clip.

That said, hunting Moose is incomparable to fighting and torturing dogs. The goal of an ethical hunter is to cause the least amount of distress to the animal as possible when killing it, and hunting can be argued as a natural process (more natural than breeding them for slaughter, at least). What Vick did had the exact opposite intention.

It depends on the human in question, honestly.

True dat. I agree with you. I am pro-hunting. It was kind of erotic when I tuned into the Palin reality show and saw her killing the moose. That's love right there.
