They traveled to South Africa where she shot and posed with zebra and giraffe.
There have been several such controversies the past few years where young girls faced backlash over hunting photos. Seems like an attention grab for sure, we all know how anything on social media spreads fast. Looks like they're itching to provoke and become the new 'heroes' for the gun movement.
"They love animals, but I mean we love animals too, it's just (long pause)...we also love hunting."
Make up your damn mind. You love animals, but you love killing them. How can you kill what you love? You naive little girl. Shame on that father. Disgusting.
I have no problem with them killing animals as long as they aren't an endangered species and as long as the animal didn't suffer unnecessarily. The posing? Really bad taste and I hope she doesn't suffer the consequences of her shallow Dad when she wakes up someday and realizes just how bad the taste of these pics are.
But the outrage of people upsets me more. If they truly want to be outraged, they should take a field trip to one of the thousands of feedlots in America and see the way the cattle are treated before they are killed for their meat.
Cows are wonderful animals, they are great parents to their calves. Now the mothers are separated from their calves way too early so the males can be put on ultra high protein diets with growth hormones that would kill them if they weren't slaughtered.
If you want to be outraged, do some research into THAT.
Theses animals will be extinct at some point, there are plenty of other ways to fund these preserves as opposed to killing. Maybe make a donation to the WWF or other charity that protects against poachers and provides preserves. Tough to love millionaires killing defenseless animals because they have the money and can pay the freight.
Except 1 is legal and the other not, can you figure out which one?

How did you make the astounding leap from hunting - a legal activity which is necessary for conservation - to sex tourism?

I guess the bleeding hearts don't realize that hunting trips like that feed the African locals.
This implies that it is ok someone to do something that morally objectionable if people benefit from it. I find that attitude dangerous. I'm not even 100% against hunting, I don't object when it is done for food or environmental reasons but I don't see the purpose of hunting for the purpose of having the enjoyment of killing something and nothing else.
