Here in Michigan we have the mighty "Bait Hunters".  They feed the deer for six 
months and then on opening day they blow Bambi away when he comes to the bait 
pile to eat.  About as "sporting" as shooting your dog in my opinion.  Also, 
this year the state government decided to allow rifle hunters to use tree 
stands.  About six hunters have fallen out of the trees and been seriously 
injured so far this deer
season.

I've felt for a long time that people should be allowed to hunt if they want 
to, but that things should be made a little more equal.  Hunters should be 
required to hunt naked and barehanded.  It would give the animal a "sporting" 
chance.
