It doesn't matter what you think of him, but plain human decency would stop you from celebrating his death and joking about it.

Where do you draw the line? Are we not allowed to joke about any dead humans? What about Hitler?

Frankly, paying 150k to shoot an elephant does wayyyyy more to preserve the species than most. Sad but true as the rest of us just *expect* a third world country to "do the right thing" when we're no better.

amen...kill for trophy = bad
eat food killed by someone else = good
????????????????????????????

A bunch of get-a-life types celebrating a man's death. How is this "Current Events"? More like "Amorality is Us".

Who says the meet gets wasted when trophy hunting? From What I have read, when a hunter pays a guide, the guide usually keeps/sells the meat, thr hunter gets the trophy
This is NO different than you or I shooting a deer and eating it...except money and meat changes hands

people are balancing precariously on one leg on their soap boxes
