"Gun sales have been up this fall, and Tony Aeschliman of the Shooting Sports Association speculated that lack of work gives rural people more time to hunt and more incentive to 'put a deer in the freezer.' And by the deer carcass is where the shooters and the foodies meet."
In his Slate.com article, Michael Agger takes a step back from Palin-bashing to examine what the Alaskan Governor's love of hunting really means.
When Palin was running for governor in 2006, she told USA Today, "We hunt as much as we can, and I'm proud to say our freezer is full of wild game we harvested here in Alaska." You can't really hate on that (unless you think killing animals for food is wrong, in which case you still can).
