Eh.... needless? Hunting I don't necessarilly care for (I just like to shoot guns at a shooting range), but I mean, do you eat pizza, chicken, chinese, burgers, fish, etc..... or do people you know use makeup, wear leather, etc. etc. etc.? If so, we apparently need animals create those things we use in daily life typically, so I wouldn't pin it as pointless and bad. It's not like you can just go out and kill as many living things as you can see... then you'd be a poacher. That's why you can only hunt in certain seasons and shoot a certain number of animals and certain types.... such as Texas, you can shoot a buck, spike, and two does and that's it where my dad hunts.
If Obama gets it.... then he's gonna pull a Bill Clinton and try and get rid of firearms or make you wait an extremely long time to obtain them and whatnot. Also the fact that he'd jack ammunition prices up to obscene amount somehow so you couldn't even hunt if you wanted to... and on and on...
