Would you pay 350k to kill a Black Rhino?

[CowboyWay]

There are already a few sanctuaries that said they will accept the rhino to live out his life but the Dallas Safari Club wants another prize IMO.

How much of that money will actually go to this cause? Once it goes through all of the channels, peoples(charity and African officials) pockets, etc...I bet there won't be too much left.

Like I said, if all of the 350k went to the guards and conservation society, then this would be fine but I suspect it won't and they are just throwing a penny at a glass window to appear to fix the problem.

Sanctuaries aren't going to pay 350k to take it.

I'm not going to sit here and argue that all the money will go where it should, but even I'd 300k,200k or even 50k goes for habitat or guards, that's better than nothing. The animal isn't expected to make it that much longer and can't even breed anymore. If some fool has 350k to spend on something like that, gimme his gun, I'll put the bullets in it for him.

No tough guy internet bs I meant to quote only tough in tough guy...Just thought it was odd that the tough southern gentleman couldn't just come out and say that Northerners are soft instead of the "story" about the deer compound?

The whole north/south tough argument is ignorant. I've lived both places, and the only people that push that stupidity are people compensating for something.

I was just havin fun with em. I agree though (I live in the Mid Atlantic) or in the middle anyhow...technically Southern according to Mason Dixon line, etc. Washington DC has had a tricky history of being a federal city dependent on federal funding controlled by congress. Northern/Southern politics played a big role in the city's funding due to the demographics and history especially prior to civil rights, etc.
