Quote
This week over 450,000 people signed a Change.org petition calling for the South African government to ban big-game huntress and Minnesota-based television presenter, Melissa Bachman. The online fury was sparked after Bachman posted a photo posing with a dead lion she hunted in Africa.

The irony is that lawful hunters like Bachman are instrumental in raising money for conservation efforts, and keeping wildlife populations stable.

The Change.org petition says that she is a “contradiction to the culture of conservation.” It also describes her Facebook post as one featuring her with a “lion she has just executed and murdered.” It is perfectly acceptable to renounce the concept of sport hunting, but equating hunting with murder is absurd.

Hunting is good for the environment. People get outraged for the dumbest reasons.  :mental:

Even though the last names are spelled differently, lefties aren't known for their intelligence, and are probably confusing this woman with Michelle Bachmann or maybe they think she's a relative of hers.
