Why have twice downgraded the severity of the passage I am referring to?

First, you described it as big-game hunting. It clearly is not, and my initial post made it clear it was not. Big-game hunting does not involve the mass and needless slaughter of a herd. It is the tracking of a single animal.

Second, you liken it to warfare, which, as I stated in my response, is clearly not the same thing at all.

Why have twice tried to describe the scene I am referring to as something other and more palatable than what it actually is? As I said, my initial post was quite clear, but you appear to have chosen to ignore or attempt to distort it into something else.
