I just wanted to shoot a big-ass bear- not a valid reason. When I see shit like this, I just think what a fucking asshole to kill that beautiful animal just for the hell of it.
Now if he did it with his bare hands, I'd give him all kinds of props.
Oh, and before someone says self-defense- that's not what I mean by hunting .

Ever been hunting for bear? Deer? Squirells? I don't think you have. Most people who say this stuff, I'd like to see them try it once in a while instead of making assumptions that gun = easy.
Go buy a rifle, go find one of those 14 foot monsters and see how easy it is to pull the trigger without shitting your pants. How fast do you think those bears can run? They're pretty fast despite their size. You'd better be quick enough to shoot it a few times while keeping calm enough to aim straight. Keep in mind that if you fail, you're dead meat. Literally.
Hunting is very difficult, there is no death penalty in basketball. You don't need to stalk the quarterback for days before sacking him. There's no such thing as sitting in total silence just waiting for the opportunity to make a kill. It's clearly harder than you think it is.
