    Why must you PETA?

    From: http://www.foxnews.com/entertainment/20 ... ng-shoots/

    PETA Takes Aim at Kristy Lee Cook's Hunting Show, And She Fires Back
    PETA's taking aim at 'American Idol' contestant Kristy Lee Cook’s new hunting reality show, but Cook's not afraid to fire back.

    “Goin Country,” which began its eight episode run this weekend, follows the singer trying to land a record deal as she participates in hunts across the country. A spokesperson for the animal rights organization released the following statement to FOX411.com.

    “Instead of angering thousands of would-be fans by killing helpless animals on camera in attempt to get her '15 Minutes of Shame,' Kristy Lee Cook's fame crusade would be better served by following in the footsteps of fellow Idol alum-turned-country-stars Carrie Underwood and Kellie Pickler—as well as Simon Cowell—all of whom have used their fame and talent to speak up for animals.”

    Underwood is a vegetarian, Pickler has spoken out about only wearing fake fur and former judge Simon Cowell is an advocate for animal adoption.

    Cook shot back at PETA, defending herself and the thousands of Americans who hunt.
    "Given that hunters have done more for American wildlife conservation than any other group in history, I make no apology for being one," Cook told FOX411.com. "Indeed, I join the ranks of millions of American hunters who celebrate our outdoor heritage and who conserve millions of acres of wild lands. These same people support more than 600,000 jobs across the country and provide a critical voice to encourage more investment in American conservation."

    Cook’s show on the sporting network Versus follows the "Idol" finalist as she brings friends and family on various hunting expeditions. Cook told FOX411.com on Monday that she could understand people who oppose her decision to hunt, but that through the course of her show, she has taken several non-hunters out with her and changed their minds, including her own sister.

    i like it. If animals didn't want to get hunted, they shouldn't be delicious.

    I'm glad she came back with an intelligent answer to Peta. I'm tired of Peta, and organizations like them, trying to force their "values" on the rest of us. Of course, animal cruelty should be punished. As long as the hunter eats or donates the meat it isn't cruelty. I don't hunt but I have a few guns and a bow I use for target. I have lots of friends and family that hunt and I'm always willing to help when their freezer gets too full.

    It can't be less humane than slaughtering pigs to eat......and it's not like you can practice by shooting up soldiers.

    stupid PETA, sometimes I think they put animal life before human life.

    that is a pretty hefty burger. And if i'm not mistaken it is from the secret menu at In-and-Out. Ask for a 4 by 4, animal style and that's what they'll hand you lol

    Gaming is staying up 'til 3am to earn a trophy that isn't real.......BUT IS
