I have no problem with it done properly on private property, you could argue its safer than shooting a deer in the bush in daylight.

One thing that irks me is round here the amount of people that say "went hunting last night got 3" when clearly they were not hunting.

Thats just bollocks..

You are quite entitled to attach more value to one form of hunting over another, but don't start redefining the english language to sort your personal standards..

Hunting is the looking for and the pursuit of game animals... got nothing to do with the methodology employed..

You can do that without a gun, with, with a bow, with a camera, with a spotlight in a truck or not...

You could say that spotlighting is not ethical hunting in your opinion, or is lazy hunting, or it might be illegal hunting - but its still hunting..
