Daily Mail, 28 July 2015: Death threats have been sent to the American dentist who killed Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe earlier this month amid growing anger over the protected animal's slaughter. Tributes to the butchered lion have poured in thousands of miles away at Dr Walter Palmer's office in Bloomington, Minnesota, where protesters dressed as 'dentist hunters' also threw stuffed lions at his house. Celebrities including models Cara Delevingne and Candice Swanepoel have also blasted the dentist, calling him a 'poor excuse of a human being'. In an emotional appeal, American television host Jimmy Kimmel asked viewers to donate to the Wildlife Conservation Research Unit - those responsible for collaring and tracking Cecil.
Well. . .surely this is a *sign of the times?*
Hunting has always seemed stupid, and certainly a well-heeled Yankee dentist doesn't need to hunt for food or clothing. . .he and Delta Dental can swindle sugary drink addicted rotten-toothed AmerICKan slobs whenever he needs to re-stock his kitchen pantry or bedroom closet. And although Cecil probably would have eaten *supermannequins* Cara Delevingne and Candice Swanepoel if they came anywhere near him (or would have eaten them, if they had any meat on their bones), still, Cecil was hardly a threat to humankind. Apparently he was an old lion, well past his prime, a kind of safari park greeter, like the old bags who nod to you as you enter Walmart. . .
So, yes, we agree, killing Cecil was a senseless act. . .
Of course, it's not the killing of the lion that is a sign of the times. . .it's the *International Outrage.*
Really? This is what brings out 21st century mankind's *better nature?*

I mean, if you are looking for something in Zimbabwe to be outraged about, what about this:
Why no outrage in the last 15 years as dozens of white farmers have been murdered, and thousands driven from their land under the insane policies of Robert Mugabe?
What supermannequin or television talking head ever shed a tear for one of Zimbabwe's white farmers? But a raggedy old lion gets its head chopped off, and the world turns Franciscan?
Then again, the *outrage* may be merely electronic. . .Cecil simply the hashtag of the day, photogenic fodder for internet blowhards. Look at this example of *real world* outrage:
*Dentist hunters* protest at Dr Palmer's house |
eSheeple photo opping for Social Media wall space. . .
Palestinian children are beaten and choked by Israeli security forces, there is no outrage. That's one small example. One small example from a world saturated with violence, disease, poverty, addiction.
The world itself is an outrage. . .
Here, then, is the true sign of the times:
The world is an outrage, an offense, a scandal. . .and the people cannot see it. When war and exploitation rule the day, who notices death and misery? Another body on the pile. . .
Franz Stangl was asked how he couldn't recognize the humanity of the Jews in Treblinka:
The pits full of blue-black corpses. It had nothing to do with humanity; it couldn’t have; it was a mass—a mass of rotting flesh.
This is our world, a mass of rotting flesh. We are long past the point of outrage when another body is thrown onto the pile. . .
The people have a form of color blindness. . .they can't see the blue-black corpses. . .their outrage is only triggered by flashes from the far end of the spectrum: an old lion in Zimbabwe, a couple of faggots who can't have a pizza for their wedding, confederate flags, deflated playoff footballs. . .
Then there are the people who are outraged over the outrage:

But they're all the same, ALL THE SAME. . .they practice SELECTIVE OUTRAGE. . .they want you to cry over their own little agenda. . .hypocrites, all of them. . .they'll turn a blind-eye to any slaughter that don't knock on their door.
Ha. None of them recognize the whole fucking world needs to be done away with. THE WHOLE WORLD. GOD DON'T WANT IT. None of it. Not even what the hypocrites think is their own little good part. Hey, friend, it's all shit!
The whole world is an outrage. Only crying over this part or that part is just straining out the gnat, and swallowing the camel. . .
