It's a shame that they couldn't all go the same way.

I mean, you always hate to see someone killed. Admittedly some less than others.

Sadly I don't think it'll deter the rest of the scumbags from trying their hand at poaching.

They received a fate worse than torture, and everyone (so far) thinks its just. It's also great that no human can be held responsible for it otherwise there'd be hell on!

Good to know that humans that torture other humans are comparable to animals, Bentley.

This is not hard.

1) Let’s imagine you have a very, very bad person in a war, who gets neutralised in that war. During fighting.

Me, I’d be content that he had been neutralised. Even if that neutralisation resulted in his death. He had chosen to put himself into a situation where that possibility was on the cards.

2) Now, imagine that said nasty bas**rd was captured. And then tortured. Resulting in his death or not, that is a conscious decision to torture him.


Now. Onto the story on this thread.

What ACTUALLY happened, was the poacher decided to take on wild animals in a life or death situation.  And he got the “death” part.

He was killed by other actors doing what they do in real life, in a situation he has chisen to be in. Very much like 1 above. 

For your analogy to be right, for 2) above to tie in, the lions would have had to capture him.

Flown him to an interrogation cell somewhere.

Then tortured him to find out what he knew about Giraffe hunters.

Then left him in prison. Without trial.

See? Not hard.

f**king lions, eh?

Nah it's unanimous , hope it was a slow death but sadly the giraffe hunter wasn't amongst them.
