I certainly believe the court has made some politically motivated decisions. However, my feeling is that an 8-1 vote probably indicates that the law was unsound.
While I do not engage in it myself, I am not anti-hunting. If I didn't eat meat or wear leather, maybe I would be, but my feeling is that by engaging in these activities, I support animal slaughter. Hunters are just closer to what the actual activity is. If anything, I consider that more respectful, as long as they actually harvest the meat.
I am completely against dog fighting, and I'm sure some methods of hunting constitute cruelty. However, I agree that a precise law should be passed.
