    I don't want to hijack the thread, & I won't let it happen, but its like torturing a suspect to save lives versus torturing somebody because you get off on it...

        I do not hunt but I have friends who do.

        I do eat meat and wear leather.

        But anyone who kills for fun is a sick bastard.

        That's odd that you would choose sick bastards for friends!

        Hunting even with the intention to eat the meat is still fun for the hunter.

        The guides Palmer the hunter hired were jailed and released on bond.

        The killing of this lion was pathetic. Cecil was lured out of his reserve and killed. That's not hunting.

          Well I suppose the hunters I know enjoy the sport but each of them, to my knowledge, eats whatever he shoots or catches. I don't know of anyone who would brag of killing a 12 point buck cutting off the head and leaving the carcass to rot, do you?

          (Nor do I think any of them eat deer meat for survival, but...)

          Anyway, I'm assuming you hunt or you wouldn't have gotten defensive so there you go.

          As far as having sick bastards for friends many of them vote Democrat on a regular basis so there's that...

            I hunt. Rarely for food...but varmints.... I hunt groundhogs because they are tearing up places around our farm.

            And I shoot skunks - they are overpopulated. And coyotes - I'll shoot them because

            they are threat in several ways.

            But squirel, young groundhog, deer and pheasant (except they are most gone from Ohio),

            and turkey (I've seen tracks in the mud one time...)...

            are good food.

            You could go fishing in Canada, your little boat motor won't run, and the breeze could

            blow you all the way across a large, wild lake. You're in trouble. Maybe you have your

            family with you, or friends... or by yourself...

            I always wondered about that - since I love the outdoors so much. What would I do?

            Hopefully, I'd have a .22 rifle, fish for food, hunt for food, eat in the wild,

            and know I could build a fire. I've always been intrigued with survival stuff.

            Hunting for food is cool. The trophy hunting, like shooting an owl or a hawk or eagle, is illegal

            because it's wrong.

            This was repulsive. I guess the idiot dentist is in hiding now. Luring that lion out of the reserve...

            maybe the dentist didn't know. But the lurers did, and they should see hard time. For a long

            time. No such thing as "hunt and release"...

              I figure you can take your camera along and if you get close enough to a wild animal to snap his picture then you're close enough to have killed him with your $3,000 rifle and laser scope.

                Fuck no, I don't hunt. Don't even own a gun. Don't find pleasure in killing animals, but to each his own.

                I'm a musician, like you! (as a hobby)

                Not a musician/hunter like Ted Nugent.

                  While I have "zero" problem with the outrage that's following that dentist around, I agree with Rubio that it's strange the PP thing hasn't generated similar.

                  Back to the dentist, yeah fuck that guy. Claiming he didn't know it was a protected Lion is complete horseshit cause of what he paid backdoor. And the whole thing where the cocksucker had to shoot him with a bow so that the poor thing lived for 3 fucking days before they found him again and ended it. I can't stand these people, I literally cannot. Some of you who will have grandchildren, they will not see animals in the wild. They're gonna have to subsist on Nature re runs, and then you'll have to explain why these animals don't exist in the wild anymore. It's pathetic.

                  I understand hunting for sustenance, sport and trophy hunting I have zero tolerance for. This dentist is lucky i'm not Ceasar...cause I'd say good on you mate for that bow shot that's so impressive, but what's gonna impress me even more is when you kill another lion in a cage with your bare hands. And that's when I front snap kick him into a lion pit.

                          Getting large sums of money from foreigners to hunt one animal, so you can reinvest it and potentially save dozens, seems like the only strategy they have though.

                            This was plain wrong. Just some pussy wanting a trophy head to hang up in his den. What a fucking man.

                              Well I guess we could open up a reserve and let hunters come in and shoot death row inmates. I bet that would help offset the costs of incarceration!

                                  Getting large sums of money from foreigners to hunt one animal, so you can reinvest it and potentially save dozens, seems like the only strategy they have though.

                                  Well, there's also the traditional type of animal tourism.

                                    Why is a lion any more tragic or important than the scores of coyote/ cougars/ alligator/wild boar/bear hunted every day for sport? Lions aren't even endangered by most conservationists reckoning. So I don't see what the big deal is. Maybe if the animal were endangered and he wasn't issued a government permit to hunt lion I would give a shit.

                                    Early man walked away as modern man took control. Their minds weren't all the same and to conquer was their goal. So He built his great empires and he slaughtered his own kind, and he died a confused man and killed himself in his own mind...

                                      Maybe because lions, like elephants are "majestic". Think of it as white privilege for that class of animal. 🙂

                                        Disappointed to see the outrage over this lion's death and not so much with Planned Parenthood selling baby parts but human life has gotten real cheap these days.

                                        I don't understand why anyone would want to kill the big game animals in Africa but my understanding is it usually does more good than harm as these hunters pay large sums of money that goes back to wildlife conservation and the animals they kill are the ones to either thin out a herd or an older animal.

                                        Apparently not the case here and if the dentist knew about this illegal hunt he should be prosecuted to the max.

                                        Now Jimmy Kimmel weep no more for Cecil but there is still Planned Parenthood you can shed some tears over.

                                          That may not be entirely true. I think Lions are just at the cusp now where in a few years they will be at the current rate of decline. So people are obviously trying to take measures before that happens.

                                          This isn't just about one Lion.....it's the point that these hunters think they can pay large sums of money for the privilege to hunt endangered or damn near extinct animals like that stupid little whore who shot the black rhino which imo was way worse than this. Relatively speaking there's literally a handful of them left. Same thing, stupid little bitch spent daddy's money to shoot one under the guise of "conservation". I hope she gets lost one day out in the bush and a bunch of orangutans find her and show her what happens to stupid little human bitches who wander off. Double vag double anal.
