I wrote to the company today:
Dear Aaron
Neilson -- Killing so-called animals with modern weapons is not so far
from opening fire on other humans in unprotected situations. This approach is
out of date and evil. I know you will scoff at what I think. But enlightened
visions see another approach to our co-inhabitants on the planet. Seeing
and caring for other creatures leads us to see and understand the web of life,
to which we belong. We are not above it, we are within it. In the web of
life is where we have our most essential being and we have no other home.
Killing
animals and glorifying yourself for doing so is to proceed backward against
common sense and the reality of right now. It illustrates you as an ignorant
bully. All the assault rifles in the world cannot make you into the man
you wish you were. I have seldom seen anything so ugly as your web site,
which I note has space only for” likes.” You may censor out from the page
those who have other views but that does not disguise who you are or keep
others from seeing you as an ego-obsessed killer of unarmed and helpless creatures,
a person who sees beauty in others as a signal to murder by pulling a trigger.
There is no
equality and no contest between a person armed to the teeth and an unprotected
animal. It is not “hunting.” It is killing. You are a
blight on life itself.
