Wow. Columnist Jill Filipovic and actress Debra Messing are positively humanitarian when compared to what PETA wants to do to Walter Palmer, the Minnesota dentist over the possible illegal killing of Cecil the lion in Zimbabwe during a hunting trip.
In summary, get a rope:
(1/5): If, as reported, this dentist & guides lured #CecilTheLion out of the park with food so as to shoot him on private property…
— PETA (@peta) July 28, 2015
(2/5): Because shooting #CecilTheLion in the park would have been illegal, he needs to be extradited, charged, &, preferably, hanged.
— PETA (@peta) July 28, 2015
Notice how they don’t say “given a fair trial” or “convicted.” It’s right to, “kill the murderer!”
More from PETA:
(3/5): Hunting is a coward's pastime. To get a thrill at the cost of life this man gunned down loved #CecilTheLion w/ a high-powered weapon.
— PETA (@peta) July 28, 2015
(4/5): All wild animals are beloved by their own, but to hunters like this overblown, over-privileged little man, they're merely targets.
— PETA (@peta) July 28, 2015
(5/5): The photograph of this dentist, smiling over the corpse of another animal, will disgust every caring soul in the world. #BanHunting

So the dead lion disgusts PETA? We wonder what they think of the undercover Planned Parenthood videos then.
