Super User roadwarrior Posted August 8, 2007 Super User Posted August 8, 2007 I was rooting for the lion! Quote
MitchIsFishin Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 I'll preface this by stating I'm not against hunting, i.e. deer (venison) for food, and I'm not a hunter. Last I heard, you don't eat Lion. I'm only sorry to NOT see the Lion rip them to shreds. That would have been funny. Quote

I'm only sorry to NOT see the Lion rip them to shreds. That would have been funny. I couldnt agree more and considering it looked like the hunters and lions were fenced in not too much sport in that at least not in my eyes. Yes it would have been funny too see the lion take him out... Quote
frogtog Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Sure wished that Lion could have got revenge. I hate jerks like that and they call themselfs HUNTERS. :-/ Sorry guys but that got under my skin. Quote
MitchIsFishin Posted August 8, 2007 Posted August 8, 2007 Avid (and Speed), listen, I give my opinion and don't, under any circumstances expect everyone to agree. As I previously said, last I heard, Lion wasn't an edible dish. Had the Lion ripped them up, well, part of the balance & cycle. Lions have enough to deal with without hunters who are looking for a trophy (obviously don't know the intent of the hunters involved), but, If I offended you guys in any way, I apologize, but I stand by what I said and I didn't see it offensive.

Super User Long Mike Posted August 8, 2007 Super User Posted August 8, 2007 I wish the lion had had the rifle. He undoubtedly would have been a much better shot than those yahoos. Quote
Super User burleytog Posted August 9, 2007 Super User Posted August 9, 2007 Africans will eat anything. When I win the lottery, I'm going over there with enough ammo to get one of every animal. Quote

Super User roadwarrior Posted August 9, 2007 Super User Posted August 9, 2007 I'm a hunter, too, but that doesn't look like "hunting" to me. I don't have a problem with someone (other than me) paying $50,000 to kill a lion on a "canned" hunt. There is no shortage of lions and I'm sure the one in the film clip was pen raised. So, it's not really "compassion" that drives my feeling about these activities, it's just that this is the kind of stuff PETA likes to highlight to make real hunters look bad. How 'bout shooting a buffalo as it grazes just outside Yellowstone Park? Maybe it needs to be done and the Park Service raises some money, but it doesn't need to be broadcast all over the internet. That ain't hunting! When I said I was rooting for the lion, I wasn't kidding. Quote
Guest avid Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Offended? Please dude, no offense taken, nor any intended to be given. I just couldn't help but respond to the fact that a lion ripping someone to shreds would have been funny to you. I don't care how big a jerk the so called hunter was, I simply cannot find the humor in a person being mauled to death by a lion. RW, you "rooting" for the lion, is cool. I'm sure many people would agree. But your statement did not include gleefully enjoying seeing a human being ripped to shreds by deadly cat. There was just something ghoulish in the original statement. Quote
Super User Long Mike Posted August 10, 2007 Super User Posted August 10, 2007 Burley, please tell me you were kidding or that I mis-understood your post. Are you saying that, with unlimited funds, you would go to Africa and kill one of everything in sight, including endangered species, and then give it to the Africans for food? I very much hope I mis-understood your point. Quote
Super User fourbizz Posted August 10, 2007 Super User Posted August 10, 2007 Jeez, some of you guys need to relax. I swear, pithy humor is not understood on this site. Quote
FishingBuds Posted August 10, 2007 Author Posted August 10, 2007 Well I for one was laughing while the issue was unfolding, I beleive the FOOLS would get what was due for messen(playing) around with a beast like that. If you play with fire you will get burned so don't come crying to me about it. It does amaze me how others will get so bent out of shape on a so called "senseless animal kill"" they behave like thats the only horrific monster human being out there. compassion is a good thing and when directed properly can be a miracle worker, now Like I said it amazes me sometimes But, I don't hear that much hard ache when they find a sicko with kiddy porn > Man they busted a hellashes sting in Russia 3 or 4 months ago and the cops said it was the worst they've seen-they actually heard these kids screaming on the videos that was taped when they was being raped, now why couldn't that recieve more compassion than 4 idiots shooting a predator in a park and just as well would've got burned and well deserve it I might add but, to each his own right :-? well fellers, I feel better now, must of been the heat today I need to drink more gatoraid ;D Quote
Palomar Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 Ouch! you'll probably get a cussen for that one, big meanny So I'll say for the record "Nice point" and it was really just a stupid video. Quote
Guest avid Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I swear, pithy humor is not understood on this site Oh yeah???........................... well let me tell you something. It ain't understood in California either. One time after a very strenuous night of club hopping with my cousin in hollywood, I had to relieve myself so bad I couldn't hold it. So I went around the side of this closed gas gas station. I had just started pithy'n when a cop drove up and threatened to lock me up! Well my fine long legged friend. I failed to see the humor in that!!!! Quote

FL_fisher Posted August 10, 2007 Posted August 10, 2007 I know I would have paid to see it happen, had it happend. Is that bad? I dont really care if it is. I think if someone is tring to kill something, it has just as much right to kill the person. If you play with fire for a dumb casue Im going to laugh when you get burned. Quote
