Have to agree with much of the thoughts here. As society becomes more urbanized and less connected to the natural world and its sources of food, etc., the more people seem to object to killing for food. For almost my entire life I have avoided the abstraction of living in big cities, and stay close to the natural world.
One reason I chose to do so as far back as the 1960's was I realized how dependent people in cities were and how much trouble they would be in should nuclear war or other disaster take place that affected the food supply lines. Here on Catalina I could return to fishing, or hunt the wild pig, deer or even the bison that live on the island. I know I could survive even if our barges from the mainland stopped running. I'm no survivalist, but I think it is important for one's security to know how to obtain food should some catastrophe affect normal supply lines.
Back in the early 1970's we had all my students learn how to obtain their own food. We captured wild pigs, fed them with our kitchen slops, and then butchered them. Others went out to fish for rock cod and sanddabs. Those who couldn't stomach either activity grew vegetables in the school's organic garden. I think it was a valuable lesson for our students, many of whom came from big cities,
There are relatively few animal species that don't rely on others for food. We do, too, whether someone kills it for us in a slaughterhouse (ugh) and packages it in plastic wrap at the supermarket, or we do it ourselves.
Now where's that big, juicy slab of meat? Oh, I forgot, I'm having burritos tonight. Killed them myself!
