Sunday Hunting Somewhat OK

-
Roanoke Times, 2-19-2014, Pg 1: Huge Front Page picture and story: Sunday hunting bill headed to governor (who says he will sign it).
Sunday hunting with written permission only on private land.
-
Great large picture of magnificent 8-point buck that only a really bad person would shoot!  Bambi's father -- How could you?
-
Two items come to mind:
-
  1. Opening Sunday hunting gives working people, who only have weekends to hunt, twice as much opportunity to hunt.  They deserve that opportunity.
    -
  2. Instead of an idyllic buck picture, it would have been more appropriate to show the following picture of my neighbors car which was hit by a deer that had been launched by being hit by an oncoming car.  
    And yes – people were seriously hurt!
