Reply To: Is the Outrage Over The Killing of Cecil the Lion Justified?

False, you can be upset over whatever you want. But here you are preaching to everyone else what NOT to be upset over. Saying its wrong to be upset over this.

That distinction is ridiculous, and I think you know it. (You are “preaching” to me about what not to get upset over as well.)

But the truth is, I don’t particularly car what you think of my intentions. If it makes you feel better to cast aspersions on them, go for it.

Hunting give the animal rights wackos ammunition against the normal uses of animals, so we should be against it.

Just the opposite – the animal rights wackos will always be on a crusade against something. If hunting was outlawed, they’d just have more time and energy to dedicate towards their fight against shechitah, among other things. Just because of that, we should support the right to go hunting.
