ROFL!!!
Yes we have seen all that, several years back someone advertised land here to city people and several moved here. None of that group is here now. They just don’t know how things really work outside of a city and when they find out if there is enough of them they try to change everything to their ways. One of my pet peeves! If I decided to move, I would make sure I wanted to live there as it is.
For a while, my mother in law’s township was mailing manure scratch and sniff cards to prospective homebuyers to let them know what spring was like.
I can’t stand when I hear of people complaining about gunshots, tractor noise, airplanes and animal smells which were all there long before they were.
Zoos are archaic and barbaric anyway. There’s no need for them anymore. Kids can learn about the animals through multimedia, without any need to sentence some poor animal to jail for life.
> It may be worth debating whether it was good policy to shoot the gorilla
How’s that? Whomever shot this animal was an extremely well-prepared hero.
Zoo’s are cool and they perform a function. Not everything should be learned and seen on a screen. If I had my way, very little would be learned on a screen when it can be experienced.
You can watch people go camping too, but it’s nothing at all like the real thing. The pitter patter of rain on your tent, struggling to find the comfort sweet spot on the air mattress, waking up early and seeing the dew burning off the ground and thanking God your tent didn’t leak. (or trying to figure out why after ten years of dry, your tent leaked like a sieve) Walking down to the creek for some fresh water and the awesome smell of eggs and bacon on the campstove.
Can’t get none of that on a screen.
Save the whales. Kill the babies.
-—If these people want to see a cruel death of a gorilla, watch a film of gorillas fighting in the wild. The winning gorilla brutally attacks and kills the weaker gorilla. A shooting is much more merciful.-—
Wait’... you mean in the wild, gorillas are wild animals and don’t sing kembya after a disagreement is resolved...
“It’s the Circle of Life.”
You don’t really see animals as they truly are in a zoo, any more than looking at a prisoner in a jail can teach you about humans.
D) Sic the dog on Sid. When Sid yells and drops the sandwich, grab it and get behind Sid and lob it at the bear. When the bear goes for Sid, call off dog and watch the bear eat Sid from a distance. Tell the dog what a good boy he is! Go home counting blessings.
“Good Bear”
Yea, but for $10 it’s a whole lot better than $8000 for a safari or nothing.
“Presumably, these folks have never had a slippery four-year-old in their charge. “
One thing about hard core liberals is that they DESPISE CHILDREN. That’s just who they are, so the presumption above is very likely true.
I’m happy that the guy had a good enough shot to only take down the beast.
But hey! Actually more to the point, "I'm sick of these dolphins."
And Elmer the cow is glue...
Depends on the person whether I would sacrifice my dog. Probably not. You’d think I’d sacrifice my dog to save the life of Barack Obama or Bernie Clinton? A Black Chimps Matter activist? - not likely
Nope...... http://jaws.wikia.com/wiki/Bruce_%28Shark%29
