If game is on my land it is my game, same as the vegetables I raise. No local, state, or federal law supersedes my right to life. However, times would have to be hard, hard, hard. I would go to my neighbors that are farmers and volunteer to work for them in exchange for a cow.

If you lived through the depression ,you may understand what happened to all the deer that roamed this country at the turn of the century.
I have heard tales of people keeping Opossum's under a wash tub and feeding them corn for a week before killing them.
Possum n sweet taters yum yum.

Desperate times call for Desperate measures. If it came down to keeping my family alive,I have no doubt that I would.

If it were a matter of going hungry, dam strait I would. But in this country with all our free stuff, I cannot feature that happeing. Poach instead of taking a free handout? Nope. Poach instead of going hungry? Yep.
I think Bowriter's comments need a little more elaboration, but his points here are kinda mine as well.
Generally speaking, no one should have a problem with someone killing an animal to eat if they were truly starving and there were no alternatives.
Romen noodles cost less than a bullet 
Easier to find, too!
But someone starving because of financial problems in America?
Last time I checked, America's poor are among the most obese, well-fed people of the world. When adults in America truly go hungry, it's usually going to be because of drug use or some illegal activity that has them on the run, rather than a "financial bind".
There are plenty of legal options in America for not going hungry, albeit again, someone in an altered state of mind, or on the run from the law might not be so able to take advantage of them.
But before I'd go starving and poach a deer out-of-season over a "financial bind", I'd go fishing or kill something I could eat that wasn't illegal to kill.
