Again, nobody has a count of who cares about one and not the other. It is a false issue, unless someone can show me where someone has conducted an actual study, at heretofore impossible speed. Wouldn't that be a news story?

Quoted Text
WASHINGTON, July 30 (Reuters) - The White House said on Thursday
that it will review the public petition to extradite the American dentist who
allegedly killed "Cecil," a Zimbabwean lion.
The petition has exceeded the required 100,000 signatures, and the White
House has said it will respond to all petitions that meet that level.

White House spokesman Josh Earnest said it is up to the Justice Department
to respond to an extradition order.

Hey, Walter Palmer, the Obama administration wants to talk to you.

Quoted Text
The severed head of Cecil the lion has now been located in Zimbabwe and turned over to
officials there. However, the Minnesota dentist said to be responsible for Cecil's killing is
still unaccounted for, according to a U.S. government agency, which issued a statement
on Thursday asking him to please, please give them a call.

"The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is investigating the circumstances surrounding the killing
of 'Cecil the lion.' That investigation will take us wherever the facts lead," said Edward Grace,
the agency's deputy chief of law enforcement, in the statement.

"At this point in time, however, multiple efforts to contact Dr. Walter Palmer have been
unsuccessful. We ask that Dr. Palmer or his representative contact us immediately,"
Grace added.

Reuters reports that the Fish and Wildlife Service is looking into whether Palmer violated
the Lacey Act, which, among other things, makes it a federal crime to trade in wildlife
killed in violation of foreign law.

Zimbabwe Says It Will Seek Extradition Of American Dentist Who Killed Lion
"We want him tried in Zimbabwe."

Quoted Text
HARARE, Zimbabwe (AP) — Zimbabwe intends to seek the extradition of an
American dentist who killed a lion that was lured out of a national park and shot with
a bow and a gun, and the process has already begun, a Cabinet minister said Friday.

"Unfortunately it was too late to apprehend the foreign poacher as he had already
absconded to his country of origin," Oppah Muchinguri, Zimbabwe's environment,
water and climate minister, told a news conference. "We are appealing to the responsible
authorities for his extradition to Zimbabwe so that he be made accountable."

On Tuesday, American hunter Walter James Palmer issued a statement saying he relied
on his guides to ensure the hunt was legal. Two Zimbabweans — a professional hunter
and a farm owner — have been arrested in the lion killing that garnered worldwide
condemnation.

If only the Obama administration gave a damn about the Ambassador and 3 other Americans assassinated by terrorists in Libya back in 2012 and went after all the people who were to blame for that tragedy.
Oh wait -- then that means that Obama, Hillary, Susan Rice and a whole bunch of administration folks would have to answer for their ineptness and refusal to protect our citizens from terrorist attacks.  So, i guess that means we will have to wait for a Republican President to seek justice for the September 11, 2012 heroes who were left to die by Hillary and Obama.

It's too bad that the dimwit dentist didn't take the lion meat to feed himself and his family.
At least then the lion's death would have meant something.  
Instead...
The only good thing to come from the douchbag dentists kill was he managed to get a hardon for the
first time in months.

We are advised NOT to judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.   Funny how that works.

Lion killing dentist Walter Palmer shared photo and bragged about killing Cecil

Walter Palmer, the Minnesota dentist who became a worldwide pariah after killing Zimbabwe’s
“Cecil the lion,” reportedly showed pictures of the dead animal and boasted about killing him
to a barmaid he was trying to dazzle, the Mirror is reporting.

According to the Doolittle’s Woodfire Grill employee who identified herself as Danielle, the 55-year
-old married dentist showed her pictures of the dead lion on his phone while claiming he had broken
records with the kill.

‘I was just like, ‘Oh’ when he showed it to me – I pretended I was interested but I really wasn’t”
Danielle explained before pointing out “He told me he had broken some kind of record for the
biggest lion but I wasn’t really that interested – he’s old enough to be my dad.”

According to the waitress, Palmer pops into the bar ” about once a month when he’s passing
through but I guess we won’t be seeing him any more.”

Authorities in the U.S. were contacted on Thursday by a representative of the dentist who shut
down his practice and has since gone into hiding.
