I don't really consider this hunting, but I don't find it immoral. I mean, if I bid on an animal at a livestock auction, and then pay someone to butcher it, that's about the same thing.

Sickening...what is the benefit?
Hunting is warranted as a way to provide food for yourself and your family, and at least requires the guts to pull the trigger, pick up the carcass and get the meat.
This is simply gross and unhuman.
It would be good for people who cannot physically go out and hunt etc.
Old or impaired in some way....
There is no arguement here, it is not hunting, therefore someone who cannot go hunting is still unable to go hunting when using this service. Hunting is the PURSUIT of game with the intention of killing and eating them, this service is the ability to slaughter animals electronically.
If someone who is physically unable to hunt sees this as a viable solution, then they are not interested in hunting, but the pleasure of having power over a helpless creature and a shortlived sense of strength in ending its life with the click of a mouse.
If you want to call this shooting and hunting, then I can claim to be a supertstar pitcher because I can turn a JUGS machine up to maximum RPMs and drop a baseballball in.
Who invited the hippy?
Explain how I am a hippy for using common sense and being a moral sound human being?
Did I say ban hunting, guns, and hug trees?
It is rediculous to claim this as sport, hunting, or the pursuit of game. People hunt by going out in the fresh air, looking their prey in the eye, and taking it down (later eating it etc..) this is a natural, instinctual human activity. Digitally terminating animals is not.
It sure is cool though!
I think they should expand this service and set up some guns at the neverland ranch!
How cool would that be?

The end result is you killing an animal. If it dies the exact same way, how is it any different? What you are saying sounds like honorable BS, it's an animal, not another person.

So, as a non-hunter, you are telling me that as someone who hunts, I should welcome the fact that if I go out and spend a whole season pursuing an animal to hunt, getting up early, taking time off work, and spending countless hours scouting--someone who gets behind their laptop for 15 minutes as their taking a dump is considered a hunter just as much as I?

I bet it isn't even real. They probably just tape some deer walking around, and let you think you're shooting at real game. Money making scheme.
