...Already said I don't think he should have done that; it was stupid, for reasons mentioned (MAC e.g.) and unnecessary. You may have decided the wolf lying on the floor was being "tortured", but the video presented as evidence of torture isn't. Opinions and facts, two different things.

"Still think it is funny?" Not sure to whom this is directed, but I have certainly never seen it as funny, nor said such (see above). My original comments were about people calling for jailing and hanging the guy. Over-the-top hysteria IMO. Most recent comments are simply about presented evidence of torture, which isn't actually evidence of torture. More emotional hysteria perhaps, but not evidence of torture beyond being projected as such.


I wonder just how many bills and laws get passed because of emotional hysteria ?? Facts mean very little when pitted against emotional hysteria. At least that is my observation. This idiot is going to cost us (hunters, sportsmen, livestock ranchers and outdoor enthusiasts) dearly.

Agreed, and more and more, we seem to be prone to that kind of thinking. Falls under my thoughts on Fantastical Ideologies driving thoughts and behaviors, this being mostly under Eco Ideology.
