WHO in their right freaking mind is EVER "excited by the sight" of a wild mountain lion on their farm?! Are these people mentally deficient or something? They could be grieving their own dead kids instead of moaning about their poor kids having to bury their pets. As for their environmentally conscious customers... to hell with them.
We live on a small working farm and mainly raise dairy goats, sheep, and chickens. We're NEVER happy to see Coyotes and would certainly be just as unhappy (probably more so!) to see a mountain lion! We also have a larger piece of property about 20 minutes north in the adjacent county and between here and there people have a "Shoot, Shovel, and SHUT UP" attitude. We don't revel in, nor take any joy in killing critters. The last dog I shot was trying to fight our Pyrenees through the fence of one of our goat pastures and I figured if he was that persistent, then I'd just kill him. If I hadn't, the Pyrenees would have eventually gotten out and killed him anyway. I called the Sheriff's Dept afterwards because the dog had a collar and a tag, but turning it in was "optional"... so we "opted" to just bury the whole bloody mess in an adjacent field and stayed quiet about it. There was no hand wringing, no moral dilemma, no concern about what our environmentally conscious customers were going to think!...and believe you me, we have a LARGE customer base of those people!... and no loss of anything we own! The whole brief but loud incident resulted in somebody's aggressive, un-contained dog dying, and us wasting two .223 rounds and spending 40 minutes digging a hole and planting the mutt!
Dealing with the inner turmoil of what to do about a mountain lion at the farm is just too stupid to even ponder.
This whole article is a good illustration of why liberals simply can't come to terms with a correct and right response to evil in this world...which means being personally armed and prepared to use arms. They do supremely dumb things like analyze the psyche of a mountain lion before coming to the conclusion that any number of us would have come to in the first 10 seconds of seeing the thing in close proximity of our livestock!...which is that it simply has to die. The fact that they lost every single critter that they own (except for the geese) shows just how stupid they are.
Interestingly enough, they pass laws which are intended to force evil people to comply, but somehow realize (albeit a big late!) that the same is simply ineffective against mountain lions! When in fact, evil people no more comply with their desires than that mountain lion.
Liberals are simply retarded. There's just no other logical explanation.

Yer right. I was trying to educate a liberal yesterday about something completely different but the underlying thought process was about the same.
In my case I was saying - human nature is such that event A is far more likely than event B.
And they responded by “it shouldn’t be that way”.
I tried to explain that it doesn’t matter if it should be that way, or shouldn’t be that way, the fact is that it is that way.
They just couldn’t grasp it.
Scary.
