Elephants are not endangered in Zimbabwe.. and last I remember, you are allowed to hunt polar bears in parts of Alaska & Canada. What's the difference here ?
alfieleeApr 4, 2011
none of which makes killing animals for sport ok, bloody redneck...

Just because something is legal doesn't mean its right/ok/legallylegalized/safe/etc
just because something is illegal doesn't mean / / / etc etc
confuciussayApr 4, 2011
What is right/ok/legallylegalized/safe/etc is relative..
goweigusApr 4, 2011
Yes. I just wanted to point out that asking for the difference is silly because one is legal to hunt and isn't considered endangered (I don't know for fact) and the other is considered endangered and is/isn't allowed to be hunted.
And that such comparisons are extra silly because government figures don't always act on reality (ex: marijuana). Just because the government makes it legal to hunt an animal, doesn't mean its populace is big enough that it could be considered not endangered.

he has gone completely crazy

Good for him. He did nothing wrong and there should have been no reaction to it all.

A-hole you as well, bloody redneck...

"I'm just some random digger who owns over 9000 GoDaddy domains. In response to this horrendous crime against humanity (because animals are people too, herp derp), I'm cancelling all of them. f**k GoDaddy."
Give me a break... I fully expect to be downvoted to hell by all the naive and ignorant animal lovers who are going to swarm to this story. I often suspect that if given the choice between saving an animal life and a human life, some of these crazies would choose the animal.

Many thanks to theswashbuckler, who managed to confirm my suspicions within a minute of me posting the above comment!

another a-hole, redneck cretin...

Not really, just a normal person with common sense. Thanks for making that moronic assumption though.
goweigusApr 4, 2011
What if the person they chose to not save is pregnant but saving the cow helped save a dozen people from starvation?
grymusApr 4, 2011
And seriously for a moment.... Instead of whining, why don't an assortment of high ranking PETA member's head on over to Zimbabwe and help?
Closed AccountApr 4, 2011
Because PETA is a bulls**t and useless organization. I wonder, do the fanatics who run that racket get paid? Because that would explain a lot.

says he was working with tribal authorities to prevent "problem elephant" from decimating crops, legally, and that the slain elephant provided food for impoverished villagers
ancientdinkoApr 4, 2011
Well GotohellDaddy did promise the locals the best post-hunt barbeque ever.
theswashbucklerApr 4, 2011
I'd prefer the headline of "Elephants Brushe Off Criticism Over Killing of Go Daddy's Bob Parsons"

Thanks for proving my point.

If merely being a hunter qualifies him as being the scumiest CEO of the year, I suggest that you review the qualifications.
What about the amoral assh**e CEOs out there with failing companies taking millions of dollars in salaries and bonuses while basically feasting on the corpse of a dying company?
alfieleeApr 4, 2011
they're arseholes as well, you're right but it doesn't change the fact that killing an animal for sport makes you SCUM, redneck prick...Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.
angrycat70Apr 4, 2011
We'll just have to agree to disagree about hunting you a c**k-gargling piece of s**t.
alfieleeApr 4, 2011
Wow an intellectual. Someone obviously into homosexual behaviour if he immediately resorts to using that kind of rhetoric. Go find yourself a boy, retard...Comment is buried, click here to see the rest.

You are the one spouting insults off left and right all over this story... "redneck this, redneck that" you sound like a child. Did you even bother to read the entire story? Unless you can provide some sort of evidence showing that everything he has said is bulls**t, I do not see what he did wrong here.
alfieleeApr 5, 2011
But what you obviously don't understand is that by considering killing animals a sport in & of itself makes you a redneck...

tsk tsk bad ORM.

Was he crazy... ??? This is going to hurt his biz to some extend.....

Bob Parson killed this elephant in the most responsible and humane manner possible and adhered to the conservationist code that no animal is killed purely for sport. He is comment about how Americans are like ostriches sticking their heads in the sand and have a PollyAnnish view of the world is insightful genius. Kudos to Parson for sticking to his guns and not issuing some empty apology.
0ldb0yApr 4, 2011
wasn't Hemingway, a beloved American author... a Nobel and pulitzer prize winning author an avid hunter himself? Parsons sort of reminds me of Hemingway.
alfieleeApr 4, 2011
Makes him scum too...
laurahoustonApr 4, 2011
why can't he buy the village a solar power livestock fence to keep the elephants out of the crops? one charger can charge 5 miles of fence.
How much did he pay the country to shoot the elephant? did the baby elephant survive?
angrycat70Apr 4, 2011
why don't YOU?
paultripApr 5, 2011
Media stunt and all ya alls fall for it....he is just a money slut! Congrats Go-Daddy you are still the #1 a0hole company grabbin da dummies cash!
khraivenApr 6, 2011
I love how much criticism a hunter gets, yet no one speaks of the *hundreds* of thousands of dollars Bob donates to animal charities (not counting the millions donated to other charities). Yeah, what an assh**e he is!! Get over yourselves.
jani40Apr 14, 2011
Bob doesn't donate to animal charities he does donate to charities for children but not animals...he is an animal trophy hunter...if he spent the 20G to help the population over there instead of to trophy-kill a FEMALE elephant...don't let him fool you the video has been edited after he found out it showed the elephant was a female...
it is well known that the only animals bob cares about are his two dogs...oh yeah...that'll save ya bob...

I have no desire to go back and forth with people that have already made up their minds, but here are a couple examples:
