All I see if here are people telling me it's ok cause it's legal. Or hunting is hard. Or the lions are bred by ranches to be hunted and it supports the ranches.
When the Whistler company decided to euthanize 56 sled dogs because they weren't making any money, it was legal. Do I agree with killing 56 dogs because it was a bad business investment? No, I believe the business should be held liable and exhaust all it's resources and pay to support those dogs. The euthanization was not a secret, it was a legal process, but it doesn't sit right with me from an ethical standpoint. That is why I don't agree with this. It isn't ethical to kill animals for no purpose other than a pathological enjoyment and media profit.
Maybe i'm just the odd one out. But I don't consider what is right and what is wrong because the law says so.
As for me being a "chad" for holding this standpoint while everyone else disagrees. Well, I suppose you would consider Copernicus and Galilleo to be Chads as well for theorizing that the Earth is NOT at the centre at the universe? If that's what a Chad is, then I embrace it. Because to me, it's a desirable quality to conjure my own original thought and shape my own views without worrying about whether they're congruent with the views of those around me.
Oh, and of course this happens often. This lady seems to be quite popular and has a large audience. So what the fuck do people expect? Of course it will be more noticed, of course it will be addressed. This is what happens when people in a higher status do things like this, deal with it.
If people want to hunt for sport, they should all go to an island and hunt each other like the hunger games. They shouldn't head to a ranch and purchase a lion to release it, stalk it, and blast it with a long range rifle.
Oh and this whole shit about the ranch making money? It's a fucking business. If someone started making westboro baptist shirts and selling those, it isn't much difference. This money doesn't go to the communities that are affected by the hunted lions. In fact the International Council for Game and Wildlife Conservation have reported that as little as 3% of the profit from trophy hunting goes to these communities.
Anyways, in end.. It's fucked up to kill animals like this. She won't eat that lion, she won't use it. It will be nothing to her other than a pay check and a wall mount. She has to right to indulge herself in mercilessly murdering an animal for no reason other than her own enjoyment.
So, I stand by what I said. She's a waste of skin. If she want's to hunt Lions and she wants to say she's hunted the king of the jungle to prove some inferiority shit, then she can hope in a cage 1 on 1 without a fucking gun and see how she fares.
I think it's wrong. I doubt anything can change that. Don't care if its legal..
