Letter: Hunters - turn to the mountains
Your support helps us to tell the story
This election is still a dead heat, according to most polls. In a fight with such wafer-thin margins, we need reporters on the ground talking to the people Trump and Harris are courting. Your support allows us to keep sending journalists to the story.
The Independent is trusted by 27 million Americans from across the entire political spectrum every month. Unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock you out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. But quality journalism must still be paid for.
Help us keep bring these critical stories to light. Your support makes all the difference.
Sir, Although, commendably, you oppose a hunting ban on libertarian grounds (leading article, 11 July), you maintain not only that "making a sport of killing animals is wrong", but that most of the British public support this contention.
Really? Then why do so few lose any sleep over the shooting of game - a sport in which enjoyment is much more directly dependent on the killing of animals than is the case with hunting?
