So what's the big deal if he or anyone is "against hunting?"

I think Marcus made it pretty clear in this post that it was the hunting of endangered species that set him off, not hunting in general.

There's a BIG difference between bringing down a pheasant or deer and shooting endangered species to hang on the wall of your den. However, what if he WAS against hunting? That should be his right, just like it's your right to support it. He CERTAINLY should not be FORCED to finance something he's against.

A lot of folks spend a lot of $$ hunting. Along the way, much of the money goes for camping. I guess they don't want those dollars. When you pull your sponsorship money, that tells me you don't want my camping money.

I watch the show but I didn't remember seeing Camping World ads. Did I miss them? My thought on hunting is one shot kill, hunt to the letter of the law and don't waste what you kill.

OK, I read the post, but I still don't see what endangered animal he took? Was he taking PETA's word for it? I hope not. Their HQ's is here where I live and these folks are hypocrites in their words and actions.
