‘F**KING DISGUSTING MEATHEADS’: Another Celebrity Taking Heat Over Hunting Is Fighting Back
More proof that anti-hunters are unhinged. Last week, ClashDaily.com reported on Metallica’s James Hetfield catching hell for hunting and narrating a hunting documentary. Now this week, Joe Rogan is getting screamed at by the irrational – and oft times hypocritical – tree-humping bunny lovers. But Joe ain’t taking their blather lying down. Check out the Tweets targeted at Rogan and his response.
Joe Rogan’s hunting buddy, Cameron Hanes first posted the following picture and caption in his Facebook page:
“Joe Rogan becomes a bowhunter. Last night, on a memorable bear hunting evening in Alberta, Joe made a perfect shot on this beast. We were hunting from the ground eye-to-eye with the bears when this mature boar offered Joe a shot. As John Rivet captured all the action on film, after months and months of practicing with his Hoyt, preparation finally met opportunity and with adrenaline surging, Joe made the most of it. The boar went 40 yards tops and was down in seconds. Fire up the grill, we are eating bear tonight!”
Then Rogan post the following picture of bear meat on his Instagram with the caption, “Anyone that tells you bear meat isn’t delicious doesn’t know what the f**k they’re talking about”:
The pictures predictably caused a firestorm of hate in the comment threads. Here are some of the tweets directed toward Rogan and his response:
@joerogan Shame on you for killing innocent animals. #Idiot

His response:
Dear folks mad at me for hunting: I only hunt things I eat and my goal is to personally ethically harvest all the meat I eat at home (1)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
Right now in June, the things you can hunt are limited so I went bear hunting. I know some people have a problem with that (2)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
If you wear leather and eat meat hating hunters for getting their own food is insanely hypocritical and just another sign of the (3)

Convenient detachment people have regarding the food they consume. Make no mistake about it, if you eat meat you're killing as well (4)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
If you're killing with your purchases thinking that makes you better than a person that kills their meat themselves is highly retarded (5)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
Life eats life. My goal with perusing hunting is to get more connected with that. It's been a bizarre and complex journey (6)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
The bear I killed was the result of countless hours of practice with a bow resulting in a perfect shot that killed it in seconds (7)
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
Again hunting is not something I frivolously pursue and I only hunt things I can eat and only in a legal and ethical way.
— Joe Rogan (@joerogan) June 11, 2014
I grow and kill my own vegetables too, often times laughing heartily as I pluck them from the life sustaining ground #TeamPeople

BTW, I’d like to point out that the Bible actually backs up Rogan’s and Hetfield’s hunting. Yes, God actually ordains hunting and eating meat and there’s not one verse in the scriptures that condemns such activities as I write in my brand spanking new book, Rise, Kill and Eat: A Theology of Hunting from Genesis to Revelation.
Check it out anti-hunters – according to the Word of God…
1. God killed the first animal according to the Bible (Gen.3:21).
2. God ordained hunting and eating meat in (Gen.9:1-3). Yeah, remember all those animals on Noah’s Ark? You do? Well, God preserved them so that Noah and his posterity could chicken fry them.
3. The Old Testament patriarch, Jacob, loved hunted wild venison and he asked his son to go kill some and cook it for him for his last meal (Gen.27).
4. ‘Thou shall not kill’ doesn’t mean thou shall not hunt quail. It means thou shall not murder. Y’know … like in an abortion?
5. God directed that animal skins and porpoise skins be used as decoration in the temple. Can you say, “Taxidermy”? (Exo.35).
6. The poets and the prophets profusely used hunting parallels, inspired by the Holy Spirit, to communicate God’s word for His people. There are so many passages you’ll have to buy my book to see ‘em all. Or most of them!
7. God assisted David in killing a bear and a lion that David didn’t eat. Oh, FYI. David even bragged about it! (1 Sam.17).
8. Jesus himself was no vegan hippie but was a fish slayer and meat eater. He personally oversaw the capture and killing of thousands of fish, ate a little lamb and sent 2000 pigs plummeting to their death (Lk.5; Mk.6; Mk.14; Jn.21; Mk.5).
9. The bible utilized a hunting analogy in communicating the gracious and glorious gospel message to Peter in Acts 10.
10. One of the greatest parables about God’s love and forgiveness, The Prodigal Son (Lk.15), ends with a big-ass BBQ!
Buy my book and send this link to the hunter, angler and trapper who’s tired of listening to the blather from the anti-hunting bunny lovers that disparage the phenomenal positive impact our pursuits have on true conservation.
