I wish I had not read that crap, I felt compelled to express my thoughts, not sure if it means anything though. Below was my response, I attempted to keep my blood pressure down, you guys let me know if I succeeded.

I am no longer surprised by the statements people make in public anymore. It is difficult, but possible to discuss things that have an emotional componet, as long as we use logic, and facts.
It was an unfortunate act, however I am moved to ask when someone commits an act with a "motor vehicle" where was the outrage, or the call to action to require "psychological evaluations" for all people operating a motor vehicle?
Let's not stop there, if that is reasonable to make hunters take the test, let's have anyone eating a meal, take a test because people get killed with a knives, yes even butter knives.
I feel qualified to make such statements, after all I am a Cop, 26 years in the Houston Police Department, working in an Investigative Unit.
I have seen people bludgeoned to death, with baseball bats, let's make everyone who plays baseball have to take a test.
You can argue, and have a good arguement, that anyone who would take the life of another is "Nuts". You can find all kinds of excuses to blame everyone but the person who commits the crime. That seems to be a classic course of thought for "Liberals".
Where do we stop sir, do we make everyone who is capable of fathering a child or having a baby take a Psych test because we have parents killing, starving, or raising their kids to become problems for society? Welcome to "Big Brother!
It would seem, correct me if I am wrong, that you have a problem with people who hunt. It also seems likely that you have very little understanding of hunters, and that there is a difference between taking game, and taking a life. Just for the record, it might be a good idea in the future that you do some home work.
It is alright for you to write what you feel, but to have it based on no facts at all, how can you call yourself a journalist? Oh, that's right, you are above it all, and smarter than the masses. Good reading should be facts, let us make up our own minds. If you want to make your case, you should have facts. However it is clear that you could not put facts in your article because they would not support your allegation.
Let us not forget personal responsibility, account ability. Let me give you a quick example, just because a child is sexually abuse does not mean he or she will abuse. It does happen, that's unfortunate, but it is not a given.
I learned that from two people who I know are fine people. In their words, "a person will do what they want to do". I guess it is about choice, sort of like your choice to write that trash. I served in the United States Airforce to protect you right to speak, say, or write what you want. I am proud of that, but that will not excuse you of your responsibility to be responsible. In that, you have failed sir. Shame on you!
