“I am not sure what the provocation was in this case.”
Note the Trough Feeder implies the victim “provoked” the attack. To quote Judge Posner, “That is blaming the victim with a vengeance”.
Please remember that this boy being attacked from behind while he was with a group of adults can in no way be seem as provoking that cat. The reason the Game Dept. Trough Feeder is making such wild statements is that he is worried, very worried indeed, that an enraged public will force closure of the cougar program
Why, that thoughtless lil’ brat could cost some deserving bureaucrats their funding. HORRORS!
State Department of Fish and Wildlife officials said the mountain lion attack was an isolated incident. As usual, they are liars. They knows full well that a similar attack occurred on a hiking trail above Boulder, CO. In that case, the six year old was holding his father’s hand when he was snatched.
The adults attacked the cougar and the boy was saved - injured, but survived.
When enviro-commies forced Americans to not kill predators, the predators assumed they were top predator.
Mr. Armed American differs. And, when an American can shoot an Urban Feral threatening him, there is no longer any justification for requiring a fellow American to suffer an animal attack.
When a threatening human can be shot, threatening animals most certainly can be shot.
When Mr. Gunpowder speaks, Mr. Cat obeys.
I am not sure what the provocation was in this case.
Provocation does not enter the equation- 6yr old looks like food.
That his why early man killed these predators- to prevent 6yr olds from being food.
