Are cows, pigs, chickens, etc guilty?

Oh shit, here it comes. The Cecil worshipers both on and off this forum are now going to jump on Trump with both feet, foaming at the mouth and gnashing teeth.

I went on safari and the shooting we did was with cameras. I hate trophy killing...but I also hate what is happening to this country more. Baby killing is my litmus test, not lion killing.

The author, Stephen Messenger, has no business writing anything about hunting, because of his peculiar slant of things.

He is the type that would cuddle with a grizzly bear.

I wish he would ... bears need to start feeding for the oncoming winter soon.

One thing the LIEberals like to ignore in this debate is this, hunting is our primary source of funding for game and wildlife preservation and habitat. The hundreds of millions of dollars we hunters pay in taxes, licensing, fees, ammunition, etc, go directly to pay for the care of wildlife, game and habitat.

LIEberals don't care for those facts.

Hundreds of lions are killed a year in Africa. Seems they had better put a full ban on the practice before condemning those who do it legally.

I hunt food. I will take a trophy of a food species like deer, moose, elk(big rack etc).

I haven’t hunted predators yet. Not going out of my way to.

But

In African nations where big game is not maintained as they don’t offer legal hunting, and subsequently do not bring in big bucks for their countries, which if the game were hunted and paid for, would make their game valuable. Those nations cannot afford to maintain that game because they place on it NO VALUE. There is a resurgence of game like lions, black and white rhinos and elephants in areas where hunted is regulated and offered to rich western hunters. Everyone benefits (money infusion into the economy) and the animals benefit. And a village will strip an elephant carcass of meat in a scant few hours.

"The killing of a beloved lion named Cecil by a trophy hunting dentist from Minnesota has an outraged American public asking: What kind of monsters would kill a majestic big cat for fun?"

You have got to be kidding me. What about the MONSTERS killing babies so they can sell the parts to buy a Lamborghini?

The media is SICK!

They are plastering this all over the news to cover up the modern day nazi holocaust happening right in front of our eyes.

“Donald Trump was forced to weigh in on the issue ... “

Trump’s got enough FU money, he doesn’t do anything he doesn’t want to do. MSM BS, I’m sick of it.

Animals hunted and killed in the US each year include, Moose, bear, mountain lion, minx, buffalo, wolf, pig, beaver, martins, fowl, seals, reptiles, etc....and I’m sure allot of them are cute cuddly looking beasts.

While the senior Trump has stated before that he's not a believer in hunting, his unwillingness to discourage the practice outright given the chance stands in contrast to the reaction of other public figures.

Why would Trump or anyone else with common sense be against big game hunting? The African countries depend upon game hunting for jobs and income. The economics of big game hunting and safaris are a boon to the economies in those poor countries.

The people themselves of Zimbabwe are wondering what the fuss is all about over a lion? They are not an endangered species.

We have too many low information people jumping all over this single incident, mostly Democrats. Grow up!
