Killing pretty lions

I find this whole deal amazing. Amongst my friends who believe
it it is a women's choice to kill their unborn child find the
idea that a rich dentist paid a lot of money to shoot a pretty
lion for his trophy room. That money will support a lot of
people over there. If he did anything illegal than arrest or
fine him if not STFU. Being rich buys certain privileges. Get
over it.

People get upset about both issues. People do their best to fix
things, change laws make it right.

Yeah, the lion was pretty. I am not for that kind of hunting.

From my inbox:
I Will Always Remember Where I Was When Cecil The Lion Was
Killed
The following is an op-ed written by “Mohammed,” a Syrian War
Refugee.
I am sorry it is taking me so long to post my outrage over Cecil
the Lion. My village has been without electricity for the last
week after the Americans bombed our power plant. I had to walk
for two days — hiding from ISIS along the way — before I found
this Internet cafe. But my anger over the death of Cecil is
still hot as the desert sands.
I remember exactly what I was doing when I heard what had
happened.
It started off as a normal day for my town, with the Syrian Air
Force dropping barrel bombs on several neighborhoods and a local
school. As I dug the bodies of several women out of the rubble,
one of the other rescue workers asked if I’d heard that Cecil
the Lion was killed.
I froze in shock, dropping part of what I assume was once a
human arm on the ground. “Not Cecil the Lion!” I exclaimed. “Not
him! Truly, is there no innocence left in this world?” I cried
harder than when we discovered my brother was gay and ISIS
forced us to throw him off a building.
The rest of the day was a numb blur: watching my neighbor
getting beheaded by Sharia enforcers, foraging for food in
bombed-out buildings, burying my daughter after she died of
cholera, and registering my outrage that rich Americans can fly
anywhere in the world and kill whatever they want.
My entire family — the ones not gassed to death — are also in
shock. My sister was beside herself with tears from the acid
that was flung in her face, but I am sure her tears were meant
for poor, majestic Cecil.
It is times like this I thank Allah that my wife was kidnapped
into sexual slavery last year and was spared the horror of
learning what happened to this beautiful and majestic creature.
I often wonder what is wrong with America. You do not hear
stories like this in Syria, partly because we already killed all
our lions but also because we killed all our dentists.
The hardest part was explaining to my eldest son why Cecil was
killed. He asked if Cecil was a Kurd or a Christian, and I said
no, sometimes people and animals are killed for totally
unjustifiable reasons.
I must go now. The Shabiha have surrounded the building to
either press gang us into the Army or execute us. No matter. If
we die, we die knowing that the infidel dentist has been
appropriate punished on Facebook.
Hopefully I will see Cecil in the afterlife, along with my
grandparents who were murdered at the massacre in Hama.
Hail Cecil!
