“A hick,” wow. What a nasty piece of work you are. And, just to get this straight . . . you think a “hick” went out and strangled a bobcat. Then they called the sheriff to collect the body. (Sheriff confirmed with CNN.) Then they made sure the body tested positive for rabies. (Also confirmed with CNN.) And then the…

This is a weird thread. Why do you think Sardonicuss is doing this? We all agree recreational murder of bobcats is bad, but this doesn’t seem to be what happened. Think it’s just that they pulled themselves up on a big self-righteous hill made of starving baby bobcats and don’t know how to climb back down?

What part of “an animal can badly hurt a child, and give it a fatal disease, even if it cannot kill it” do you not understand?

If we’re going to talk about animal behavior, find me a bobcat that will stay still and let a man come up to it and stab it to death. You seem to be pushing for a narrative even less likely than a rabid bobcat attacking a person.

Killing a child isn’t the only unacceptable repercussion. A five-year-old can be badly hurt if attacked by a wild animal—particularly one with rabies.

This one attacked a human, so it is a high-risk transmitter of rabies.

This bobcat was a rabies carrier, though. CNN reported that it tested positive. Leaving aside that rabid animals behave much more aggressively than any regular animal, do you honestly think it should still be in the wild?

Worth noting that, if you are bitten by an animal that might be rabid, get a rabies shot! The disease has a near-100 percent death rate after symptoms show up. As far as I know there is literally only one person in history who has survived after symptoms started. Untreated rabies is a death sentence. Getting a…

They really believe we don’t understand and they refuse to wrap their head around the fact that they themselves don’t understand. We know that the police are trying to be “helpful.” We do understand! They need to get that instead of being helpful, that phrase does women no good, and makes victims have to explain…

“I’m simply pointing out that people giving sound advice are not the enemy. Even if it’s advise that you don’t need, it’s never bad to hear.”

“Both are good things. Both come from a good place. Harm reduction is all encompassing.”

And the actual people you are trying to “help” are telling you this isn’t a good thing. Now. Do you know more than women, and therefore will go on lecturing to us whatever we say to you? Or are you actually going to listen to what…

Let’s say a person’s child dies in an accident. And a cop says something like, “You know, parents, you have to feed your children.”

“Men (myself included) don’t seem to like situations we can’t fix.. so we try to help.. speaking for myself we don’t mean to annoy y’all.. we just worry.”

BUT YOU ARE ANNOYING US ALL! FUCKING FIX *THAT* IF YOU LIKE TO FIX THINGS SO MUCH! 

You can’t expect people to say something like, “Sometimes terrible things happen to decent people and that’s sad.” How would they feel superior?

Bad situations like . . . walking home from your job? Fuck you.

“I’d like to see more ladies get home safe.. that was the point of the advice..”

Sweetie. Every woman already knows that. I know you think you know better than women and therefore this is useful advice for us but, seriously, do you truly think the cop or you is imparting new information to any adult women?

“Husband/BF murdered you? Shoulda had better taste in men!”

Random incel murders you, shoulda had sex with that violent man so he wouldn’t murder others! 

Once again! We do not have to choose!
