R.I.P. Cecil the Lion

I wasn't sure what I write about today but I  decided to pick something topical and write about that dentist that killed Cecil the Lion. I've read a lot about this piece of trash recently and it was all disturbing. If you haven't already heard, a Minnesota dentist by the name of Walter Palmer paid a large sum of money (I believe it was something to the tune of $55,000) to kill a lion. A collared lion in Zimbabwe...and people are pissed! I've read a lot of thoughts about this guy, some think he should be killed, some think he should be in a Minnesota jail, others think a jail in Zimbabwe and there are others who think we should do nothing more than pray for him (which is the equivalent of doing nothing). My personal opinion,  I think this guy, and any person who hunts for sport, is a piece of shit. A disgusting, vile, worthless piece of trash. I mean really, what kind of person finds it fun to kill an innocent animal for no reason!? Like how much does he hate himself that he needs to feel better by killing something? Does this kind of shit get him off? Does he have erectile dysfunction so severe that only killing large, majestic animals helps him feel better about himself? Because ya know, they have pills that help with that nowadays. I just don't understand it.
With that said, do I think he should be killed?  Certainly not. But the fact that he's completely ruined his career and life because of his poor choice of hobby makes me happy. I think that's almost better than jail. I doubt he'll ever practice again and if he did he'd probably have to change his name and move to a different country.
My advice to him and any other sport hunters, put down your weapons and pick up a better, safer, more humane hobby. ..perhaps crocheting? ;)
