I don't think anyone here has promoted the killing of any animal unless it be eaten. Are you simply tired of getting 'great white hunter' things shoved down your throat? -- Ban idiots, not guns! |

Why do you think these were "great white hunters"? Why do you think I thought the tiger poachers were "great white hunters"? I didn't post or imply that. I was referring to the asshole "big game hunters" from the good old U.S. of A. who are mostly white bread. Oh, and the term may even be found in Wiki, to wit: White hunter is a literary term used for professional big game hunters of European or North American backgrounds who plied their trade in Africa, especially during the first half of the 20th century. The activity continues in the dozen African countries which still permit big-game hunting, but the "white hunter" is now known as the "professional hunter."[1] White hunters derived their income from organizing and leading safaris for paying clients, or from the sale of ivory. The popular term Great White Hunter emphasizes the racial and colonial aspects of the profession, as well as its colorful aspects. The phrase echoes the privileged status of the white men who earned their living this way. Depending on the author and intention, the term can be used straightforwardly, in parody, or as a critique. I'm using the term as a critique of the "professionals" and their clients. Got it? It is also a significant part of the economy of some of those countries. Without the hunters, there would not be much money for conservation, so it is not as "black and white:" as you would want to believe. Folks like PETA and the Humane Society may get a lot of press bitching about it but they do not have many people throwing $50,000 - $100,000 to conserve these animals. The hunters do. The same thing is true in the US. The biggest source of conservation money is hunters. I did ask why the medical community seems to be over represented in these African hunts. Are doctors frustrated killers or are we just paying them too much? Oh...it makes money...so, of course... |
