Lock her up

This story looks and reads like so much clickbait the Daily Mail is famous for, and the only illegality it mentions seems to be a very arcane law applying to "use of borrowed weapons." Huh, WTH does that even mean? Other than that I don't see anything wrong with the trophy hunts themselves, and think this story is much ado about nothing as most clickbait is.

Sure taking and publishing a picture of a bloody sex toy is -always- distasteful whether a hunted animal OR ANYTHING OR ANYONE ELSE is present or not. It's preferable though to a bloody sex toy in a picture of a LIVE animal. Also preferable to a picture of a blood spattered air piston/hammer among a pile of carcasses one could take in hundreds of slaughterhouses across the U.S. every day of the world.

Sorry, I don't get the outrage over this other than prospectively outrage by feminists over the use of the sexist perjorative "hen do."

 

Why the outrage over this but not over Trump Jr.'s hunt safari's? If they are both legal then it is what it is. The sex toy is distasteful but certainly that is not deserving of jail time.

 

Huge difference in the quality of the meat.
And one can get a shotgun or 22 rifle pretty cheap.

Cradle to grave locked up and then slaughtered, animals are not the greatest of health.

 

Quarter it and cut away the backstrap slabs, leave the rest for the coyotes. Still a heap of bloody work to get it out even with a cart.

 

When I was younger I lived to hunt and hunting was my main pass time. I'd drive hundreds of miles just me and my bird dog hunting chuckers and Huns along the snake river and camping out a week at a time. Elk season was the center of my universe though and I'd take two weeks off every year for that. Now I put a deer in the freezer and that's about it. It's mostly just about the meat at this point.

 

I'm anti safari trophy hunts in principle but posing with a bloody sex toy over your kill really crosses a line. Having said that these trophy safaris fund wildlife preserves in Africa so I don't opposed them on a rational level like I do on an emotional one. They may be a necessary evil.

 

once you've tasted goodness it's hard not having it... it's not like you can walk into the local grocery store and get some moose, venison, elk, bear, rabbit, etc. i miss those good ol' days... slaughterhouse beef, chicken, turkey, pig are mostly tasteless and boring

 

the next best thing to hunting it yourself, is raising livestock, nuturing & caring for them... theres nothing better than fresh pork/beef without any mandated additives...
