Trump lifts ban on hunting hibernating bears

[yuiyoshida]

Wednesday, April 5, 2017, 2:11 PM - The state of Alaska is home to 16 U.S. national wildlife refuges and a vast variety of iconic animals — two of which are now fair game for hunters.

A joint bill from the U.S. House and Senate, signed off by President Donald Trump on Monday, revokes an Obama-era rule that bans "predator control" hunting on Alaska's refuges.

The ban protected hibernating bears from being hunted, along with wolf cubs in dens. It also protected these animals from being targeted from helicopters.

The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service spent years declining state officials' attempts to extend predator-killing practices into federal wildlife refuges. To cap the requests, the government agency put forth a rule in late 2016 protecting wildlife on all Alaskan refuges from predator control.

The ban was a part of former U.S. president Barack Obama's climate change legacy, and just one in a line-up of environmental protection laws that are on the chopping block under the incumbent.

[yuiyoshida]

[RainCaster]

And the GOP loves him for it.

[yuiyoshida]

70. bravo!

nicely done.

[Afromania]

27. gonna have to 3rd that motherfucker

That's some bullshit. What happened to man against nature? You want those big ass military type guns then take your chances against a pissed off bear that's awake. Seriously these guys don't want to hunt the way their ancestors did or for the reasons they did. They just want to kill shit plain and simple.

[BeyondGeography]

3. I was hoping this was satire

[yuiyoshida]

11. No he wants people to walk into Bears den's

and blast away with AK-47s or some shit ...what an asshole.

[IronLionZion]

61. I thought it was satire until I googled it

I often joke that any day now we'll hear that Trump has started deporting all puppies and kittens

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

4. Colbert opened his show last night with a bear

at a podium asking wtf is wrong with you people.

[IronLionZion]

60. When Colbert sympathizes with the bears

you know shit is getting real.

[GreatCaesarsGhost]

65. Thanks for posting the video

[MontanaMama]

5. I can't even....

This motherfucker is THE lowest common denominator.

[yuiyoshida]

7. SNAKES WON'T BITE Trump

they are afraid of rotting to death.

[trof]

6. This is The Onion, right?

[yuiyoshida]

8. I wish...

GAWWD!

[trof]

9. Well, OF COURSE!

Shoot them muthas while they're asleep?
Right.
That's the safest way.

[yuiyoshida]

13. I can't believe this shit,...

Karma will catch up to this asshole, I swear, to kami sama.

[MontanaMama]

14. Let's be clear.

Killing a bear in its den isn't hunting. It's just plain slaughter. Right up Dump's kid's alley. I loathe this "man".

[yuiyoshida]

17. You and me both and I wish I could say what I was thinking

but it would probably get this thread locked and not what I want.

[Alice11111]

67. Then display your macho trophy, for which you paid $20k.

It makes you a big stud. Takes so much courage.

It's like when DTs boys were holding up the bleeding elephant tail that they had cut off. Such pride of skill.
Cruel morons.

We met a hunter in Alaska recently. He was from.Colordo, and he had paid 15k fo hunt an elk. They fixed it all up for him, and is was a guaranteed kill, with a guide. He said, next he wanted a bear, and he was hoping the govt was going to make it easier. He said bears would be 20 to 25k.

[malaise]

10. Well I shouted Fucking Hell before I reached

your scream

[yuiyoshida]

12. ITS FUCKING

criminal. Whats next? Shooting them at ZOOs?

[MontanaMama]

15. Why not?

Nothing is sacred to him.

[yuiyoshida]

16. I know right... TRUMP GENERAL ORDER #2287

PEOPLE CAN NOW KILL ANIMALS IN ZOOs!!! KILL A TIGER! KILL A BEAR!! KILL AN ELEPHANT!!! PUT A TROPHY On your walls, and when you are done with that, cut down all the fucking Red Wood Trees and leave them to rot!


Some where Obama is shaking his head sadly.

[liberal N proud]

18. It's easier to shoot a sleeping bear

[yuiyoshida]

21. whY NOT shoot them in Zoo's too?

I mean he would order it, if He thought of it.

[Eugene]

31. Please don't give them ideas Ms. Yoshida.

This is about putting trophies on the wall, not the sport of the hunt.
If they could make the economics work, they are crazy enough
to try it.

[dhill926]

19. being an asshole just for the sake of being an asshole....

fuck every last goddamn one of them...

[yuiyoshida]

20. This x100000000000000000000000000000000

Fuck THEM ALL.

[Initech]

22. I really, seriously hate these fucking assholes.

[yuiyoshida]

23. He just drove a wedge FAR DEEPER than fucking ever...

and Republicans will pay with the next election. We will make sure every Republican seat is taken by a Democrat or Independent. Vote their asses extinct like we did in California.

[Initech]

37. This presidency has been a complete disaster.

And it gets worse by the day.

[yardwork]

24. What the hell is wrong with people.

[yuiyoshida]

28. They are fucking insane, its a sickness

it has to be. No one can explain this shit.

[yardwork]

33. Some people are truly evil. Depraved. Monsters.

[IdiotsforPalin]

25. I bet Sarah Palin's panites are all wet over this............

[yuiyoshida]

29. I am sure she suggested

Her TV show about shooting bears from a Helicopter, only an asshole would do this.

[Initech]

59. What has been pictured cannot be unpictured.

[Eugene]

26. This isn't just Trump. Congress Rethuglicans backed this abomination in the name of SPORT?

http://www.salon.com/2017/03/28/danger-yogi-republicans-now-intentionally-made-it-legal-to-hunt-hibernating-animals/

Uday and Qusay Trump must be licking their chops.

[yuiyoshida]

30. Its beyond disgusting

Again if I could say what I was thinking, this thread would be locked.

[byronius]

36. + 1 x 10 to the 4500000th.

[Stinky The Clown]

32. Next

[byronius]

34. All that is green and good is what they intend to murder.

And this does open the gates for both murder and revenge for that murder.

Someone who would shoot a hibernating bear deserves whatever response comes their way. Put me on a jury deciding the fate of an activist who hunts such hunters, and I'd let them go and wish them well.

[Tanuki]

35. People like his degenerate sons will shoot comatose bears

and have them taxidermied like this:

[ailsagirl]

38. That sonovabitch

God, I despise him

[smirkymonkey]

39. What a sick f**k!

Why? Just Why? So his mentally deficient sons can bag themselves some easy trophies?

God I fucking hate these people!

[FailureToCommunicate]

40. Thanks Dad! It's WAY easier this way!

[keithbvadu2]

49. For cowards who like to kill so much, the two sons never noticed military recruiting offices.

[FailureToCommunicate]

55. Good point! Cowards don't like 'prey' that shoot back.

[Doreen]

41. Trump and his family and his followers are all

evil dripping pieces of shit.

[Ken Burch]

42. And that's going to "create jobs"....?

[bucolic_frolic]

43. CRUELTY

BURN IN HELL ASSHOLE

[Cha]

44. JHC!

[StarryNite]

45. I HATE that MOTHERFUCKER!!!!!

[downeastdaniel]

46. OOOww, it must do a "hunter" proud to shoot a bear asleep...may the flesh of the bear burn 'em

[elmac]

47. Oh. them there are real sportsmans

shooting sleeping bear, boy howdy, make a man out of them, big hands.

[Duppers]

57. Rather like their damned canned hunts.

Much like the ones Darth Cheney enjoyed in Texas and the carnage the brothers drumpf wreaked in Africa on endangered critters. Shooting fish in a barrel proves they have enough testosterone or something...shit-for-brains?

These fuckers have no compassion or empathy for anything.

[NastyRiffraff]

48. When I hear something like this

I wish there WERE a hell. You know, the kind where you burn in an everlasting fire. Dump and his cronies deserve no less.

[keithbvadu2]

50. NRA sportsmanship

[madaboutharry]

51. I don't understand why.

Why?

Why would anyone think this ok?

What is the point?

[CrispyQ]

53. To undo everything Obama.

I really do think that is the point of some of his legislation. Go after everything Obama put in place & undo it. It's payback for Obama roasting Trump at the WHCD a few years back.

[warmfeet]

52. The bears will have their revenge.

[link:|

[Snackshack]

54. Wow...

What kind of person shoots a bear hibernateing or wolf cubs period...

What is wrong with people...

[moose65]

56. For fuck's sake...

Is there any cruel, inhumane, disgusting practice that these people don't celebrate? Was there some nationwide outcry in favor of this? My mind is boggled once again!

[retrowire]

58. Applauds*

This is helpful!
/s

This is the stupidest shit I've ever seen. wow. Our government is shit.

[montana_hazeleyes]

63. This is so EVIL and DEMENTED!

All the psychopaths that made this happen are demons! There's nothing human about them anymore.

[treestar]

64. Who would want to do that?

Nobody in the US needs the bear for food now. That must have been the only justification at one time. And there are other sources of meat anyway.

[world wide wally]

68. I hope every potential Dem candidate in the next 4 years gets this tattooed on

the back of their hand.
America has a short memory
