When is the deadline for that?
As a Canadian, I have the luxury of just loathing this guy for the dead bear and now this. It must be pretty terrifying for USians to think this guy was almost on the ballot.
Don't most anti-social personality types who murder animals stick to small animals like cats and dogs and birds? I don't really want to know what murdering massive animals mean.
Oh FFS, has no one here ever seen a corpse?! He cut the head off a dead animal he found. Call it weird, fair enough. I wouldn't pass up a free whale skull to hang at camp. "Found this on the beach and cleaned it myself!" The only charge possible is transporting across state lines, and while illegal, ain't really a big deal.
If I keep a feather off a dead songbird, same thing, prosecutable offense, but no DA is going after me without evidence I killed for it, and probably not then unless I was a serial bird murderer. This is exactly why we give prosecutors leeway in these sorts of things.
Bullshit controversies like this tell me y'all don't get outside your suburbs.
How do you feel about the fact that he heard about the dead whale, put his kids in the car with him, drove to the island in a different state where the whale was, had his kids watch he sawed its head off, put it on the roof of his car, and then made his kids wear tarps over their bodies with breathing holes cut out so that they wouldn't get the "whale juice" that was flowing into the car all over them?
Is this actually real? If so the brain worm thing is not even a joke anymore, they must have done some serious neurological damage because that's messed up.
100% real.
