The Firing Line Forums - View Single Post - NRA Says We Must Stop the Decline of Hunting

Unless a person has ready access to hunting land, it's difficult to bring others into what would be a New Thing. That's a major problem, absent a fairly fat billfold.

Then there is the societal aspect of competing interests. The "real" outdoors competes with TV and computer games. For young people, the misinformation present in public schools doesn't offer reasons to learn about the realities of nature and the outdoors.

I don't really have an answer...
