No, he's been attacked by an angry mob of internet busybodies smelling blood and feeling invincible behind their (supposed) anonymity, and a very large proportion of them just wants to hunt down and destroy someone and this story is just an excuse for them.
If you feel it's OK to destroy someone's life before all facts are in... well, perhaps one day this should happen to you. Karma is a *****, you know.
Same as the busybodies who are hell-bent on controlling the reproduction and sexuality of strangers? And incite violence toward abortion doctors and blow up abortion clinics?
If you don't see anything wrong with this.... You go in the sociopath column with the good doctor.
Killing for fun is not something that human beings should do. Killing to survive, protect, feed a family, etc. Those things are what human beings do. Killing animals for fun, starting fires, and bed wetting are signs of a potential serial killer. I guess we are lucky he had the bucks to contain his blood lust to the animal kingdom.
This is pretty much how I feel. The triad of behaviors you reference is more fully discussed here.

Yes, and I was pointing to this similarity from the start. And the hypocrisy as the majority of those opposed to hunting also tend to be pro-choice and would be outraged if the same destroy-their-life tactic was used against and abortion doctor. At least pro-choicers don't usually hide behind Internet user names, they physically go out there and get arrested.
Although I am NOT a hunter, I am not opposed to hunting for those who follow the rules......
What this dentist did this time and likely many other times previously, was NOT hunting by ANY stretch of the imagination..... It was nothing short of killing for fun and bragging rights....
Has anyone else noticed that the hunting guide said that after the lion was FINALLY killed and skinned and beheaded, the good dentist wanted to go find an elephant to kill..... but they couldn't find one big enough to suit his desires..... and the guide didn't think it likely that they would..... so he came on back home.....
I have seen no evidence anyone's life is in danger because of my post.
Melodrama much?
That's only because he had to go in hiding. I think the guy's a d-bag, but I don't like this new practice of destroying lives and livelihoods because we don't agree with something a person does. Darren Wilson was proven to have been using self defense, and yet his life was destroyed. The man who posted video of him berating an employee at Chic-Fil-A lost his job and hasn't been able to find gainful employment since. The guy who co-founded Mozilla Firefox was forced to resign from his own company because he donated money to a cause that was so popular at the time that it passed with a clear majority and every politician at the time said they agreed with (marriage between a man and a woman). I could go on and on about the mob mentality destroying lives, but hopefully my point is clear. If what these people did was wrong, then we might as well put them in prison because we have destroyed them just the same...and their innocent family members as well.

Even if you agree with the availability of abortion, you have to admit that in their minds they are no different than the animal rights activists. They believe that abortion is murder. They are advocating for humans who have no voice and aren't even considered human. And yet, it is their very humanity that makes their baby organs so valuable to medical researchers.
