Anyone want to comment on the international media coverage of the lion kill in Zimbabwe the other day ?

I think the dentist is a total knucklehead but there are so many more important news stories that are publicly ignored. Christians are being butchered, and many more modern day holocaust's are going unchecked by the media and the current administration. The social media is loaded with ignorant uneducated lemmings who thrive on taking people down only to make themselves feel better about their pathetic existance. This whole lion thing sheds light on the reality of what is important to the vast American community.
I love my country but I also struggle with the path of destruction we are on. Taking personal responsibility and understanding the price of liberty and freedom has been traded in for an idealism of entitlement and have not's with their hands out. Work hard for less and work less for more. Not good...
Off my rant Fred, but you asked...

Good article. The NYT has covered the episode pretty well too. These guys were poaching, and time will tell how much the dentist knew. I won't rush to judgment against anyone, and the mob on FB and yelp offer a good lesson in how NOT to react. This is why we have courts and rules of discovery. Keep calm and carry on...ilovesprig said:Please read this.....Good piece on why we hunt by Oiliva Nalos Opre........http://usat.ly/1I5gDQF
