Wasn’t Cecil the main source of income and interest in the park there as well? He wasn’t just a lion.

This is NVC’s NVCest article to date.
There is a huge difference between killing a lion so you can have it’s head on your mantle and killing a deer to eat the meat.
Wait... are you comparing slaughtering animals for food to actual human slavery? You don’t see how that analogy is really, severely fucked up?
Eh. This is one issue where I diverge greatly from feminists on, probably due to my ethnicity. As a black man in America, I just can’t be so dismissive of the the existence of false allegations of rape and the impact that they have when they occur. Many an African-American man in the early-mid 20th century ended up…

Ah yes, these two plump hens need to drop 20-30 lbs post haste.
Well, he’s just an all-around piece of shit, isn’t he?
His killers lured him out of the park at night (hunting lions inside parks is illegal—but then again, so is hunting lions at night), shot him with arrows, stalked him for 40 hours as he weakened from his injuries, then skinned and beheaded him and left his corpse to rot in the wilderness.
If Zimbabwe wants to extradite Walter Palmer to be prosecuted for what looks like several crimes here, let’s hope the US gives him up without a peep. Looks like they’re already prosecuting the local people involved:
I’m a hunter, and I know I always feel the proudest when I use bait to lure an animal that I have no intention of eating and that has become acclimated to being in the presence of people (which removes any sport in it) nominally outside a protected area for the sole purpose of counteracting the shame of my shockingly…
I am sorry, but trophy hunters are psychopaths.
Who would look at an animal such as a lion, elephant, rhino, etc. and decide that the best thing that this animal can be is a trophy on their wall? A mentally deranged, gun humping, piece of filth, that is who.
(Nervous tic. Had to get it out of the way so I can go back and read a serious article seriously)
No tomato-throwing from me. I’M a weirdo. Generally speaking, I love a nice runny poached egg on buttered toast (NOM) or a runny egg and soldiers. But when I was pregnant, I went through this phase of thinking “these are legit hen periods, I can’t eat this nasty shit” and couldn’t tolerate eggs at all. That was three…
The responses here make me angry. Does this woman get no blame for what she did? Are we really banking everything on a mental illness and perhaps.. just selfishness?
I like how African leaders often accuse calls for LGBT tolerance as “Western influence” interfering in African affairs, while simultaneously believing homosexuality a sin because of their deeply held Catholic values.
I LOVE SUGAR but it is literally the worst. I still bake a lot but I try to mostly use artificial sweeteners now, even though it’s not as yummy and you have to get used to the aftertaste. I’m glad it’s working out for you!
None of this can undo the damage he caused during his decades as a predator. And this kind of fallout is a far cry from the justice he should have seen for his crimes. This all took far, far too long to happen, but I’m still reveling in the fact that for once, a serial criminal is facing some real consequences.
I think it’s a suicide mostly because a coverup seems outlandish and because I can imagine her mindset—humiliated, scared, and having likely lost the job I’d moved to a new place for. Especially if she had never been in prison, and doubly because it was a bullshit arrest. Also because of other women in the tank saying…
It has as much to do with her death as that that maniac who shot up the movie theater last week was a member of the Tea Party. Absolutely nothing and only serves to allow ignorant people to be safe in their assumptions about something they don’t understand, because the person they are making those assumptions about…
