Shoot him...
Locally, we had a horrible story of a prized polo horse shot and killed and another shot in the head but lived; the second horse belonged to a little boy. A beer can with a partial print led to an arrest tonight of a man who did confess to the shootings. His excuse? He's an alcoholic and after a drinking binge stopped to take a whiz when he saw the horses in the pasture. Since he likes to 'shoot things', he got out his Magnum and shot the horses. Guess what, dude? If I get on the jury, I'd be happy to vote in favor of putting you out of your misery. Carol

I replied that I was not against deer hunting--I get that the deer will overpopulate and starve because their natural predators are gone, etc.
I went on to say that when choosing friends, however, the knowledge that someone 'likes to shoot things' has a definite affect on the selection process.
And no, I DON'T think it's ingrained in the DNA. I know plenty of perfectly macho type-A men with no urge to kill anything.
