I said before I understand hunting for food or as a means to control populations of animals/conservation.
This wasn't a hunt. This was a shooting gallery. Maybe I am digging too much into it, but when they study people who are serial killers almost all of them share a few traits including having been cruel to animals. To me a person wanting to shoot an animal simply for the sheer pleasure of shooting it is a form of cruelty. I'm not saying they are serial killers, but I have a feeling they have some serious underlying issues.
