So was slavery, doesn't mean it is correct.
I imagine voting for a gun grabber and abortionist would be the worst.

Meateater sells a controlling stake to anti-gun Democrat?

No you specifically stated late term. Making that distinction implies a difference. If he didn’t support late term abortions and only supported first term abortion would you think differently of him. No? Then why state late term. Quite the rabbit hole eh?
Don’t lecture me on how I should think of abortion or anything in regards to morality. The fact it’s that a politicians stance for against abortion is virtually meaningless for any practical applications. And I can give a rats ass if you don’t agree with me, because last I checked I get to decide how to vote based on my determinations
Yea and one day they might say the 2a isn’t an individual right. But you know what until they do, it is.
You get to vote based on what you think and feel is important and relevant, I would be an asshole to come on here and question your morality based on those decisions of what on your radar. Maybe you’d consider doing the same.
I would never lecture you. A Wise man once said “ argue 10 minutes with an idiot 9 of those are your own fault”
Laws define the lowest level of acceptable behavior. Like building codes. Building codes do not tell you how to make the highest performing building, and laws do not define the highest level of ethical behavior.
Falling back on the law as the be-all end-all of how we should act is what gets us in a lot of trouble as a society.
I see class isnt your strong suit either. Not surprised.
As I predicted: Ladies and Gentlemen, Steven Rinella: http://www.themeateater.com/hunt/fi...nella-addresses-questions-about-meateater-inc
Good for him, he sounds fired-up. My other comments still stand about the overall .inc direction.

Yup that guy is a very good speaker, kind of prefer he posted audio vs a written statement.

Did anyone expect him to say he sold out? Bottom line is he signs the back of a check that comes from an anti gun agenda person. Will that effect his shows content? Time will tell.
He said he may host a dem politician if that politician owns guns and hunts.....but that same politician may vote to ban semi auto. I know people who own guns and hunt that want semi autos banned.....it is definitely a complicated situation. The anti gun people are well organized and use many different ways to get their message out. As far as fox news...Bill O'rielly made some statements on guns that concerned me at the time. The whole thing can go downhill fast. We really need to hold the line where it is.

It’s because of how fragile guns and hunting are right now, or at least how it’s perceived. You have to appreciate that. We aren’t talking about chocolate vs. vanilla ice cream here. The larger picture includes topics that hit Americans very deeply - the very things that make us Americans: the constitution, freedom, autonomy, self-sufficiency, traditions, family, loyalty...it’s all wrapped up in one big sticky ball, and when stuff like this happens. It seems to rattle something that people felt was sacred.

Things are extremely fragile.....the new government in Mn. passed gun control laws within days of being sworn in.
I'm glad Rinella set the record straight, but I think we should also use this as a lesson. WAY too many of you dug in your heels on the basis of a perceived slight to your political ascription. Rinella said it as well as anyone could; "If we're going to protect the future of hunting and the shooting sports, we need to grow them beyond the same [shrinking] base that we currently have" That means being willing to ignore the sensational BS and acknowledge nuance. Especially as a social minority, entrenched thinking will only speed the erosion of our social and political capital, and that is not something we can afford.

Protecting the future of hunting and shooting sports does not mean that you are protecting the 2nd.
Hunting and shooting sports have nothing to do with the 2nd.
