In reply to the discussion: Dentist who killed Cecil the lion defends African hunt [View all]beac
(9,992 posts)51. Time to post this again:
Extradite Minnesotan Walter James Palmer to face justice in Zimbabwe.
Cecil the Lion, a resident of Zimbabwe's national park, and an national icon was poached and killed this week. Media reports in the Guardian, Wall Street Journal and elsewhere have identified American Walter Palmer, a dentist from Minneapolis, MN as the poacher. He is alleged to have lured Cecil from the safety of the national park to kill him. Two of Palmer's local accomplices are already in custody. Zimbabwe authorities now actively seeking Palmer in connection with this incident.
We urge the Secretary Of State John Kerry and the Attorney General Loretta Lynch to fully cooperate with the Zimbabwe authorities and to extradite Walter Palmer promptly at the Zimbabwe government's request.

It is not hunting when one stakes out a pile of dead animals and waits for a target to arrive.
