The 2015 trivial drivel thread

[HairOfTheDog]

I know y'all are talking about Cecil the lion but I still can't go into that thread. I'm afraid of what I'll see.

I wish I didn't look at it. It's not even bloody or gruesome. It's just... I don't know, haunting I guess is what I would describe it. That and tear jerking.

It's a disturbing story, as are the photos.

The cruel and senseless killing of Cecil is very sad and the assholes behind it really piss me off.

But, it's encouraging to me that so many people around the world have been affected by Cecil's ordeal/death and become motivated to push for tougher prosecution of poachers as a result of their emotion/anger.
