American Dentist paid $55,000 to kill lion

It doesn't matter what I'm doing about it, I'm not the hypocrite who does nothing while criticizing those that are doing something about it

She's not there to help people. She's there for the animal heads.

It's nice of her to leave the left overs, but it's hilariously disingenuous to call her a conservationist and a humanitarian.

Let me know when she's in a soup kitchen instead of a reality show, then we'll talk.

good read:


Winston-Salem, N.C. — MY mind was absorbed by the biochemistry of gene editing when the text messages and Facebook posts distracted me.

So sorry about Cecil.

Did Cecil live near your place in Zimbabwe?

Cecil who? I wondered. When I turned on the news and discovered that the messages were about a lion killed by an American dentist, the village boy inside me instinctively cheered: One lion fewer to menace families like mine...

Does the money she pays for the tags go towards conservation efforts? Yes we have already discussed this.
Does the meat from her kills go towards feeding hundreds of families? Yes we have already discussed this.

Call her whatever you want if it makes yourself feel better about yourself after admitting you do jack .

Americans outraged more than Africans about the hunting of a "named" lion.
What about the killing of 300 poachers in a South Africans Kruger Park Game
Reserve by 550 army and park rangers? They even brought in Prince Harry to
get in on the shooting. The poacher criminals are using rifles and machetes.
The poachers have been killing Rino's in the park for the horn that can bring about
$50,000 each in Asia. All this killing because some Chinese guys want to
get some wood. This rino horn killing seems this where the real problem is not
with one lion.........

There has been some marches in D.C. about "Lion lives matter" along with the banning
of all Dentist having hunting rifles. Make that "Repug" Dentist with rifles.

Must be time for the drive by media to move on to something else.
American attention span is less than a house cat with a catnip mouse.

The outrage about Trophy hunting in Zimbabwe is over as it lifted its ban on
hunting lions, leopards and elephants after 10 days...There is still a ban on
the farm where the lion was shot.
