There was nothing that detailed the hunter's motives or if there was wastage of the meat, aside from hysterical assumptions.

This is your takeaway from this post?

ASP - I don’t know exactly what to say but if you do feel this way I strongly suggest you call this Health Line based in NFLD.

Have the conversation - please.

I don't know why Trophy hunting even exists to be honest, I fail to see how it a desirable "sport" and please don't argue its needed to keep "the numbers" in line (there's alternative methods that could be used here)

If your taking down a Moose or an Elk/Deer etc for the sake of eating the meat and gaining a "trophy" if you will that's one thing, and I can respect those that hunt for necessity.

But those who hunt animal simply to get a hard-on for the "LIFETIME PICTURE" to share with friends etc is disappointing to me. But we're all entitled to our opinions and trophy hunting because of the $$$ it generates will likely never go away, at least until they go extinct.

Anything PETA does is for attention. The hypocritical higher-ups know what 'sells' and makes it on the news. Pay it no mind otherwise they will keep it up.

I love how PETA members identify themselves so easily. That way we know who to eat first when the apocalypse arrives.

I'm not sure scones are the best meal for birds, they may not be able to fly after all those calories!

PETA are like how Nazis used to be, where people on both sides of the spectrum can point to them and say "yeah, these people are idiots"

Birds are carnivorous little bastards. That saying should be feed two birds with one bird.

I bet corn and beer fed would be terrific. I'll have the flank of corn and beer fed Pamela Anderson medium rare with a side salad that I'm not going to eat.

Totally going to start using those just for the awkward moments where people won't be sure what was just said.

I can't believe a site like The Dirty exists. I forget what combination of google searches brought me there, but what a terrible place. If any site is worthy of a being taken down, it's that one.

Rising Instagram Stars Are Posting Fake Sponsored Content

Quote:
...a lifestyle influencer in Los Angeles, recently staged a fake ad for a local cafe, purchasing her own mug of coffee, photographing it, and adding a promotional caption carefully written in that particular style of ad speak anyone who spends a lot of time on Instagram will recognize. “Instead of [captioning] ‘I need coffee to get through the day,’ mine will say ‘I love Alfred’s coffee because of A, B, C,’”
Quote:
...took the fake-“sponcon” game one step further, once faking the entire purpose of a trip to Miami. Technically, she was just there on vacation, paying her own way for everything, but on Instagram she positioned it as an exclusive press trip. “I took a lot of pics at restaurants and posted ‘Thanks so much XYZ restaurant for the hospitality!’”
