I could see maybe if you got a kitten recently. It is the summer. But also if you're dumb and don't care about your cat.

if he was such a good hunter you think it would have taken him less than 40 hours to track down an old queer lion that was shot with a bow to put it out of it's misery.. lmao

Apparently after he got done with the lion he told the guides he wanted to kill an elephant but couldn't find one big enough



Hope this rear end in a top hat gets run over by a dump truck

Let's see..

-55k in bribes for the Cecil hunt
-45k for an elk hunt in 2009
-127k in a sexual harassment suit
-3k(pfff) for killing a black bear illegally and lying to a federal agent about it
-??? for cheetah hunt
-??? for rhino hunt

People bring up his wealth because he flagrantly uses his money to do what he wants regardless of legality, rich rear end in a top hat is a good description for him.

everyone who is mad at this guy always seems to include that he deserves to die for being a rich rear end in a top hat who killed the lion

seems to THIS nooner that you guys may be more upset about his class than his actions :shrug:

It's kind of a moot point because a rich rear end in a top hat is the only kind of rear end in a top hat who could do this. Like, a poor rear end in a top hat can't front $50,000 just to shoot a stupid lion on another continent. A rich rear end in a top hat can.

They are calling him a rich rear end in a top hat because it's a rich rear end in a top hat's crime.

Something hit me looking at him. The dude is a total loving nerd. I would bet fifty bucks he has no relationship or had one in ages, hence all the massive stockpiles of cash from dentistry. In every trophy photo all I can see is a rough and tumble dude that looks like he lives off the land and is nobody you'd want to mess with...... posing in the photo as his guide, next to a dude that WANTS to be that and clearly isn't.

So basically you know those goons who jump on threads about eating puppies and poo poo going "I WILL EAT ALL THE ANIMALS BECAUSE I LOVE MEAT AND I'LL SHOOT THE REST FOR FUN?" This guy is one of them, with money. poo poo, I wouldn't be surprised if an insecure dentist from Minnesota was literally one of them.

you can actually inflate your scrote pretty safely with sterile saline, syringes, needles, and aseptic technique. its a niche kink iirc

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

actually the root of the anger is probably the trophy hunting of a member of an endangered species, compounded by the public and scientific value of the individual animal, and the unsporting techniques involved, especially spotlighting and irresponsible tracking of wounded prey

because it is a dramatic and high-profile example of the general exceptionalism and lack of empathy exhibited by many rich people

There are tribes which hunt elephant and buffalo with spears as a rite of passage. In that match up you've probably got a 20-30% chance of getting completely written off. This guy literally would have stepped off the Land Cruiser and had two guys with rifles to back him while the lion is completely blinded by the spotlight. Even if he maims it and gets charged, he'd be able to hop back in the car while his staff finish it off. I'd have a touch of respect for the guy if he had nothing but a bow and was tracking a pride on foot. The poo poo he's doing with the sitting on the carcass has all the pantomime of being a massive swinging dick in the jungle but its the opposite. No surprise that he's headed into hiding.
