No, in fact, hunting is _not_ protected by the 2A. Not in the least bit. Every right granted to you by the 2A does not give you a right to hunt. Think about it. ;-)

In case you think that the 2A is a necessary prerequisite, consider England's heavily regulated "deer stalking" laws. In fact, people that equivocate hunting with the second amendment make Democrats drool, because they are the linchpins to regulating the 2A into nothingness.
OK -- perhaps poorly worded. Hunting is an activity that may use firearms. That better? Obviously hunting does not require firearms.
Deer Stalking??

I kinda' agree. Our "founding fathers" went in quest of food, not "sport". Hunting is a sport.
Really? I doubt that the founding fathers would agree that hunting was a sport, not a quest for food.

Founding Father: "Honey, I went hunting, today!"
Founding Mother: "Oh? Who won?"
