Gullible internet users in uproar over vintage photo of Jurassic Park director posing with 'prey'.

A photo of the Hollywood director on the set of his 1993 blockbuster Jurassic Park was posted online last Sunday. Facebook meme-maker and wit Jay Branscomb added a jokey caption claiming the photo showed a 'despicable' hunter. Not everyone was able to appreciate his sarcastic sense of humor and criticized the 'animal killer'. One commenter labelled Spielberg an 'inhumane p****' despite Triceratops being extinct for 66 million years. ‘Steven Spielberg, I’m disappointed in you. I’m not watching any of your movies again ANIMAL KILLER,’ she ended her impassioned rant. >>>> (I couldn't make this up if I tried.)

A number of other commenters also apparently fail to realize that the triceratops has been extinct for 66 million years ago and that Spielberg, one of the most famous movie makers of all time, is sitting beside a mechanical prop from a movie which has grossed more than $1 billion and won three Academy Awards.

[sevinufnine]

Some people actually took this for real. Lost for words....

[Jim from C-Town]

My first thought! There is no further explanation necessary for Barack H. Obama.

[sevinufnine]

yes they vote. one of my first thoughts was the horror of that realization.

This is an example of why we shouldn't pay so much attention to Leftist "outrage".

And what about Peter Jackson? How many oliphants were killed in the making of Lord of the Rings?

Being the UK will publish photos of naked people but refuse to publish “offensive” words....my guess is “prick”. Heck, I’ve seen this publication *** out the word fag! No kidding.

[cripplecreek]

WUT?

[IYAS9YAS]

What is p****?

Nickname for a cat.

I suspect many of the ‘outraged’ commenters were just playing along with the joke. On the internet, it’s all a game.

[Greetings_Puny_Humans]

I know! There’s not even any blood! Obviously Spielberg just tranquilized it.

[centurion316]

OK, so it’s a big joke and we all did nothing about it and now this magnificent creature is extinct. That just shows that all these jokes about the Mexican jumping mouse just have to stop or they’ll be next.

Now you know why advertising works. The average ‘consumer’ will just believe anything they see without thinking twice about it.

[longtermmemmory]

are 1970’s cylons entitled to reparations?

[tophat9000]

Funny you could post it was kill by global warming and get the same idiot responses

This appeared on my facebook timeline but everyone was joking about it. Depressing to find that people believed it. Horrible, in fact.
