    Well shit looks like they’re even killing military.

    Honestly you’re safer with a bunch of druggies than with a cop from Florida.

        I’d absolutely rather be in the woods with bears all around than with police.

        Plus, the bears are friend shaped.

            Well… some of them definitely would. But a lower percentage than cops, seems like, so still statistically safer. Plus bears can’t use guns (yet).

                  Maybe you should read the causes section of the thing you linked. Fun is not listed.

                    Yes, researchers have stopped saying they kill for fun because it gives the wrong impression to people who can’t understand that words can have multiple meanings and connotations. However when an animal is not killing for food, or defense, or practice, or any other definable reason, “fun” would be an acceptable label. They do not have to shout HELL YEAH BROTHER and put on sunglasses while doing it to call it that. Would you be more comfortable calling it “killing for the hell of it”?
