The A***oles didn't fall far from the tree: Trumps sons pose with their dead animals

154. The scream of the self-righteous

I jumped on this sight a couple of days ago and when I was logging in I believe there was a welcome sentence referring to this site as the most liberal site on the web. Nothing could be further from the truth. Maybe "liberal" has just become a definition of emotionaly driven people who abandon logic as soon as they see something that makes them uncomfortable.

First, compare the number of leopards now in sub-saharan africa with the number of leopards there were before the USA started permiting importation of "sport hunted" leopard trophies. Sport hunting has pretty much single handedly saved the African leopard.

Seceond, The leopard was eaten. Every leopard killed over there except for some of the ones that are poisoned get eaten. This is in Africa and just because you haven't seen leopard at the grocery doesn't mean there isn't a whole village that wouldn't fight tooth and nail to get a slice of a leopard carcass.

Third, People in many of the nations where leopard hunting occurs are STARVING. Not like you who reeeealy want a starbucks in the morning, but the real kind of starving. Like not eating for ten days straight, and burrying your baby this morning before you walked ten miles to eat a patch of grass growing on the side of a road, starving. Unemployment sits at %85+. Loosing your job is much like a long death sentence. I am not exagerating. You think that picture of the cut off elephant tail was gross and barbaric? You should see the chaos that erupts as soon as the ivory comes out and the masses decend on the meat like a riot. Game scouts will stand on the carcass as long as they can, beating at the hundreds of starving families with whips and sticks, who descend upon the dead beast like fire ants on a baby bird. Knives slashing, people biting at each other, stuffing meat into their mouths while they cut more off and throw it to their children standing outside the brawl. In a matter of a couple of hours a five ton beast is nothing but a dark blood spot on the ground.

Fourth, those "assholes" that shoot those beautiful animals just did more to save starving africans in a couple of weeks than any of you are doing for the rest of your lives. If you could stop the sport hunting that would just put hundreds of more people into those desperate piles fighting for meat.

Fifth, and this is the part people don't understand who have never spent time in africa, most areas where there is not sport hunting have no wildlife yet. The people have consumed every last little bit of anything edible. Remember they are STARVING. The predators threaten their livestock, so they poison every single animal that might kill chattle. Every thing else is nothing but a walking meat twinky. All of the megafauna is snared and eaten. When that is gon they start trapping all the birds until they are all eaten. When they are gone, they eat bugs, leaves and anything else that will make their beellies feel full. This isn't a because of some drought or unforseen natural event. Its just Africa.
