We humans have done far more damage than any of our predecessors or current cohabitants, and perhaps the greatest sin is that a lot of us know it and remain indifferent, make excuses, or adamantly deny it so they can continue to profit from it.


It is very frustrating. However, lack of character is not inherent in humanity. People choose to behave poorly, and can choose to live better.

I wonder what the reaction would be after all that's been said about the guy, if it turns out he's intellectually challenged.

That's all in the news story proved in the OP.

The deputy on the scene had to decide to either shoot the tiger, or let it continue to chew the man's arm off. Afterwards zoo officials and the sheriff's dept. fully supported the deputy's decision to shoot the tiger.

More likely let the tiger finish chewing his arm off

Asian tiger, white cop. Obviously racially motivated.

I think they should have at least let the tiger complete the job of chewing the guy's arm off before shooting it. That's only fair in my opinion.

Better cremate the body, the body parts are probably worth thousands of dollars on the black market

I'm sure the zoo could use the extra money.
