    Actually, it's called "The Most Dangerous Game" because "game" is slang for animals you hunt, and people are the most dangerous game in that sense.

    They actually bring that up in the story.

      well, i hadnt read it in a while... i know it is close to the same thign as hunting, but hunting to me generally means with reason, while i percieve game as a sport for amusement, i just thought id bring up the difference.

        No, "game" is the animal, not the activity, I believe.

          anyone who says both is wrong because hunting is not murder because hunting is not a legal term and murder is thus making it impossible to make an event hunting and murder

              hunting isn't legallly murder because it doesn't normally involve hunting humans, lol... i think if you were to go to court and say "i didnt murder the man, i was hunting him", they would laugh at you...

              and about the "game" thing... my mistake then
              Yay MySpace

                  Let's not look at this from a legal perspective, since the laws of the land are not always right.

                  I think it's more of a sick perversion than anything else. To derive pleasure from killing humans is disgusting. Period. Such a person should be locked up with the key thrown away.
                  I concur

                    ya I read it too, only about 2 months ago for school actually. Pretty cool if you ask me.
                    Every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilizations, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every hopeful child, every mother and father, every inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every superstar, every supreme leader, every saint and sinner in the history of our species, lives here on a mote of dust, suspended in a sunbeam.
