Rocker Ted Nugent likes meat, and has no time for those who don't.

We caught up with the rocker and star of the Outdoor Channel show “Ted Nugent Spirit of the Wild,” (which airs on Tuesdays at 8:30 pm ET) to find out more about his love of hunting, and his distaste for Hollywood.

What are some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding hunting, and why do you love it?

As a hunter, I am a person who is connected to Mother Earth and knows where food comes from. The production of tofu causes more death than my machine gun and helicopter. The fields that you need to grow the beans in have to be completely destroyed of any wildlife or any living thing so that it doesn’t have to compete with tofu.

You tweeted about having a great Easter…

Yes, I devoured a ham. It’s the least I can do to celebrate He rises. We have an incredible pantry of God’s renewable protein here in Texas and Michigan and God just keeps sending me packages of delicious grilled meat and I accept them.”

You’re speaking at the 2011 NRA Show in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania this weekend where you’re hosting a seminar session called, "I Still Believe," which focuses on freedom and gun rights. What is the main message you’re trying to get out?

It has always been the brain-dead elitist element to disarm others, while they are armed and protected by the other’s tax dollars. The misconception is misrepresentation in the media, and people who look at a gun and immediately look at the tragic use of a gun.

They don’t look at a chainsaw and think of dismembered people, they don’t look at automobiles as the tool of the drunk driver, and it is this bizarre mysticism of some shallow minds that the gun has a personality. Guns save lives. Anti-gunners have created these gun free zones where more lives have been lost. The most evil empires start by disarming their subjects, meanwhile 99 percent of gun owners in America have never caused a problem.

So what solutions do you have for curbing crime?

If you want to stop crime you can’t go after hardware, you would stop the early release, the parole, the plea bargaining and the turning of the states' evidence by vicious evil monsters that are raping and murdering Americans. Don’t let them out of the cage! Crime will be down 90 percent the day we do that, because 96 percent of the crimes are committed by some judge or some prosecuted attorney somewhere let him out of the cage. When my dog poops on the couch, he’ll never do it again – because I won’t let him near the couch again. What an idea!

You’ve come under fire by numerous animal rights groups such as PETA over the years – what rationale do you give people who disagree with hunting and slaughtering animals?

Where will next year’s productivity live if we don’t balance the surplus? It makes a lot more sense than Bill Maher and Pam Anderson (celebrity animal rights activists) saying we should stop hunting, because if you did than where would production live?

Speaking of Hollywood types, have your conservative opinions caused you trouble in the entertainment industry over the years?

(It is) like being a Jewish bagel operator in Nuremberg in 1938 and being scorned by Nazis. I’m the good guys, they are the bad guys. As long as the idiots don’t like you, it proves you are not an idiot.

I have been attacked for my NRA activities, my activities as a hunter, attacked as a real conservationist. Here is a man that has been attacked for my militant hatred for drinking and driving, and drunk idiots ruining lives because in Hollywood, if you aren’t drooling, puking and dying it is not a party. If you want to see a party watch Uncle Ted – I have been clean and sober for 63 years and this is a f**king party! Write that down!

I like uncle Ted, but only as much as my neighbor who says "hello" when I drive by. When I needed help fixing a mutual fence, he was no where to be found.

When uncle Ted visited the "Freedom Hunters" booth, SHOT Show 2010, (last year), and when Tatonka316 gave him a Bullet Pen, I asked if he would take a photo with us and "say" something about the Green Beret Foundation or the Special Operations Warrior Foundation, he quickly said, "I will for $25K".

I said nothing, only offered him an invitation to join PS.com, participate in a chat or two with Special Forces soldiers, our friends, families and guests.

After the Zombie Apocalypse starts, he'll be killing deer in Michigan.

I'll be with my tribe in Wyoming, Utah, Idaho, Montana, Arizona, Colorado, New Mexico, Nevada - trying to get water to crops, power grids turned back on, stuff like that.

Bring what you got, join the team, help where work is being done, participate.

If not, you can sleep outside the perimeter.

"I will for $25K"

Wow. What generosity. That suprises and dissapoints me. Guess I shouldn't be suprised, though. Lotta folks act like they care about important causes as long as it suits their own.

Bring what you got, join the team, help where work is being done, participate.

That's why I love it here. Excellent, excellent people here. Inspiring.

Ted Nugent is an entertainer, hunter and businessman. He's not a warrior, and he was just being bluntly honest with WD.

I like BB King, but if I asked him to play a function for free, he'd prolly turn me down, too.

I don't dissagree, but just thinking how it might have helped the foundations for him to say a few words, and what little it would have cost Uncle Ted.... of course, that could be part of why I'm not a rich business man.

Most of his apparent views, I agree with, but it's hard for one to tell whether he believes the things he says or if they are part of his "work persona." I guess one never really knows without knowing him personally.

Probably, the first time I have agreed with Dusty. Probably will be the only time.

Perhaps Al Queda has spiked the DC water!! :D

I don't disagree with Dusty either, in fact, in Ted's defense, he does invest alot of his own money into his own foundations. I don't know if he does this to take advantage of non-profit liberties, reducing his total taxable income, then draws down a sub., loan from the foundation, tax free. Since loans are not taxable, he simply pays himself equal to his income from other sources. Hell I might have done the same thing, since that is what his lawyer and CPA advised him to do, I don't know, just speculating.

I also would not ask him to finance, produce or perform a 45 minute rock concert for free, nor would I ask BB King, but when asking for a photo, a few words and a hand shake with a few recently returned brothers from A-stan and Iraq, I think an answer of "Sure, no problem, America Rocks!" would be acceptable.

But if he decided to help one group, then everyone would start asking and then the attention would no longer be on him, his foundation, but on everyone else.

But $25K seems to be the number in which he will switch.

I sold out once, I left one ODA for another because they offered me a school, a stripe and colder beer.

Ted does more then Bono and his 1.2%.

Meh. BS.

How does the SOWF afford $25,000 to give Ted Nugent? Isn't that money supposed to go to the families, Mr. Nugent?

I know Ted has done some good for the troops, but how does he believe the SOWF can afford $25K for his .....services? What services? Asshole services?

Put your money where your mouth is Ted, because this isn't the NRA.

This is NOTHNG like asking BB King to play. This is Ted Nugent cashing in on soldiers he says he sticks up for.

Disappointing.

What have you done?
