It's funny how our culture deals with things. The Duggars have always been monstrous and repulsive, but it's only this that gives advertisers the willies. A brutal patriarchy in which women are basically sex slaves, well, that's good TV.

It seems morally indefensible. Yet lots of rich guys do it. And lots of less than rich guys wish they could.

I don't understand the appeal at all. What skill is needed to roll up to an animal that's already been baited in for you and shoot it from a vehicle? Where's the thrill in that?

I eat meat, so I can't get too dogmatic about hunting, because that deer that somebody shoots had better odds than the cow that was led onto an assembly line for me.

But shooting a lion so you can take his stuffed head home is gross.

He should have raw steak duct taped all over his naked, defenseless body and then be dropped off in the wild in the middle of a pride.

Half this country is obsessed with pulling a trigger to satisfy the release of dopamine.

This guy needs to take it a step further to get his fix.

Sad world we live in.
