Do you really think they thought that death threat thing all the way through when the people they are willing to kill hunt pigs like that with a pistol?

That kid’s dad would probably gladly mount the guy or gal on his wall right next to the pig if they showed up on his farm.

“”My concern is that this case has brought a negative image to Alabama and to hunters who hunt ethically,”

.....that’s a lie...her “concern” is outlawing hunting entirely.

“Rhonda Roland Shearer, a New York City organizer..”

Hey Rhonda stay in your little city world and leave the rest of the country alone. You busy bodies are nothing but an annoyance to true Americans!

I wonder if these 800 are also concerned about the slaughter of Bears, Tigers, Elephants and Gorillas in other countries?

Wow...800 signature in over a year, worldwide. That’s a mega-groundswell of popular support, absolutely viral, yessir... A real “net-zilla” grassroots movement.

This is kinda' like on the Andy Griffith show when Howard Sprague caught that famous big fish and had to put him back due to community pressure.

Hogzilla was killed over year ago and some scientist dug the carcass up and estimated it closer to 800 rather than the 1,000. However, There are hof on record in Texas that are well over 1,000 pounds. One wild. I do not remember the three hours to die stuff in the original story.
