You seem to be forgetting that no everyone is for hunting innocent animals. I for one, am not for it and I also don't think Mr. Peterson should be killed either. However, there is a difference in the two situations you've just described. For one, many people who do hunt also use what they kill for food and so, it's not really going to waste; and at times hunting say, deer for instance, is necessary because otherwise they would become too populated and then it would be dangerous for them because there would be too many of them to live in one place and then we'd have deer running wild all over the streets and trust me, that's NOT a good thing.
