probably because you've never tried it... You don't know the satisfaction of realizing you've went through a lot to feed your family... to be the one to bring home food for the family... you get no sense of accomplishment coming home from a store I guarantee you that... however if you do the work yourself, it feels much better... then to know you're also helping nature out, and able to feel closer to nature... I dunno why you feel so against it? ... not thinning out the herds will destroy way more, as others have already said... you're stretching things a bit far on the 'killing things for fun' thing... did you know even fruits are living things? ... no body makes a move to stop others from eating fruits and vegetables ...
