A Sad Story: Why Can't People Leave Harmless Animals Alone?

I read this story on the front page of the KC Star this morning. I drive by Elmwood Cemetery on Truman Road every day on my way to work. I've seen Ella the Deer on a couple of occasions. She was more or less a "pet" inside the cemetery, and didn't harm a soul. Why somebody would shoot this gentle, beautiful animal for no reason is beyond me. Why do people have to be such assholes?

Story is here:

Any sportsman that defends this is a piss poor excuse for a sportsman. The ****ers didn't take the meat. They just shot the damned thing to shoot it. I ****ing hate hunters like that. I have a cousin who is like that and will go for a walk in the woods and just blast away at random birds and shit he sees for no reason. Pisses me off.

Just think of pets you've had, do you look at them as just a cat or just a dog? Probably not. I bet you consider them a part of your family.
I think this is the point George is making.

Whether we all agree or not about hunting, I think we all understand the importance of a human life versus an animal's life.

but - this situation is unique, as JD and others have put it, a cemetery is not an amusement park.

And people spend their time there reflecting and searching.....for anything that might help them get through a rough time in their life.

You have to be pretty damn cynical not to understand how this deer could have meant a lot of different things to a lot of different visitors to the cemetery.

While I love animals, I'm not a PETA member, nor am I going to judge those that hunt (as others stated, it WAS necessary on the Oregon Trail ), but sometimes there are unique situations that LOGIC dictates that it transcends the typical arguments.

why are you saying it was "hunters"? I think it was some kids with too much time on their hands.

True, though I was more talking about a generic type of "hunter" than this particular kid: those who just like to kill shit for no other reason than killing it and don't harvest the meat.

The deer had previously broken into Byron David Smith's house while on vacation in Minnesota. She had it coming.

Yea. If you're hungry like that, you're gonna find a way to get to that meat.

Yeah I'm not a big hunter by any means, but I've never heard anybody deer hunting with a pistol.

This was a punk who got a gun and said, "hey look at what a big guy I am."

You're a good friend. I think the kid who did it is a giant douchebag. You should attend the memorial service. I'd feel silly doing it but if I were friends with Bruce, I would attend.
