I Just find it amazing people who knew absolutely nothing about this lion or even how big game hunts operate, now are in tears, beating their chests in grief, outraged, perplexed, demanding "something' (whatever that means) be done about it...

If Cecil was killed by another lion or another animal, this story would be literally non-existent...

But because he was killed by a "evil" human being who paid to hunt big game, it's beyond the pale...

Even our house of idiots: feckless, craven, gutless, spineless Congress is in on the action...

I mean there is nothing else that's important going on to address...!!!

The worst that the dentist did was what is called “baiting an animal”, while it may or may not be a crime in Africa, here it will get a fine if you do to hunt deer here in the states.

I agree with you that it sure as hell shouldn’t not be a national “crisis” because some city dwellers on the internet blew a tube over it. It is easier for Washington to be distracted by this than to deal with the slaughter of actual humans here in the many clinic across our country.

Personally i would never go on a big game hunt myself, but I don’t think it should be illegal either.

I am rather annoyed that the media has decided to distract itself with this rather than doing their actual jobs of reporting news that actually affects the people who read it.
