Self-defense is a human right.

Also, way to casually shit on their culture and heritage. Jesus christ.

I have quite a few Alaska native friends who are deeply committed to subsistence hunting. They desperately want to be able to hunt. (I even had a friend let me watch him gut a seal, and it was super cool to see.)

I once had a native fellow rant when we were talking, about how westerners are trying to rob them of their rights and heritage. I honestly kind of agreed with him.

They shouldn't be required to either hunt or starve, but anyone who tries to restrict their ability to do so should reassess why they want to compel indigenous folks to conform to western ideals.
