I have no problem with hunting as long as it isn't just for sport. People have been hunting since we lived in caves...I'm sure we'll continue long after I die. I've also lived in an area with very high deer population, and it does help keep them under control. Some years, at least here in Utah, many starve to death during the winter because there simply isn't enough for all of them to eat. As for an 8 year old handling a gun..I think that the standards that they are held to should be very strict, but as long as he/she is with a qualified, capable adult, I think it's ok.
