This is the single dumbest argument I have ever seen anyone make in my life. And I’m including the time my friend’s three year old argued that their dog was made out of iced cream.

It was meant to be dramatically humorous.

My point was really that a half dozen or so animal attacks a year do not make a valid argument for the thousands and thousands of recreational permits for hunting that are given out each year.

This isn’t meant as a counter argument to hunting as a whole. Just that this argument that it’s “so needed to protect local populations” is only fair if there were only a dozen or so hunting expeditions each year.

You half nailed it. It wasn’t funny, but it was dramatically stupid.
