Definitely another classic " Ugly American " story. Dentist Walter
Palmer has a despicable hobby by the standards of our new age of
biosphere appreciation. But it is also scary how quickly the mass media
can stir up lynch mob hatred against a clueless fan of the once " noble "
sport of big game hunting. Our oldest literary hero- Beowulf -is killed
while trying to save his kingdom from a ferocious beast ( 8th century
Old English poem ) .He is given a great king's funeral.
Famous American writer Ernest Hemingway still " dreamed of the lions " to his bitter end-hunting not saving them.
Just days ago there was a credible story that Planned Parenthood was marketing the body parts of aborted infants.I found this story just as offensive as the stupid killing of Cecil the Lion.
The root of evil here is the MAKE A BUCK passion of heartless, brainless capitalism.AND its culture of narcissism.
