The killing of Cecil the lion by a Minnesota dentist choked up at least one late night TV host last night and has led to a growing mob carrying “Killer” and “Murderer” signs to form around his office.
Actor Aaron Paul, most famous for his role as Jesse Pinkman on the hit drama “Breaking Bad,” also has a message for dentist and trophy hunter Walter Palmer.

We understand emotions are running high, but we have to admit we’re a little taken aback by the conflation of “hunters” and “murderers,” not to mention “psychos.”
@aaronpaul_8 dear America, you stupid fucks. Stop using guns and killing anything that moves.

If the percentage is only 99.999 percent, someone has to disagree.
.@aaronpaul_8 That sounds like a factually accurate statistic, for sure.

@aaronpaul_8 What people don't know, there are only a few hunters who do it for sport. Some of us just enjoy deer meat.

@itsmacaroo @aaronpaul_8 First off it's our way of life. It's food. We don't destroy you and call you psycho for not hunting.

@itsmacaroo @aaronpaul_8 We just let it be. It's a part if our culture. You support people expressing themselves, yet mock our way of life

@itsmacaroo @aaronpaul_8 I did it to show how it disrespects hunters by referring to us as psychos, and we will retaliate with offense.

@aaronpaul_8 I think a distinction needs to be made between poachers and hunters. Hunters keep animal populations from getting out of hand.

@aaronpaul_8 you do realize hunters are responsible for more conservation than almost any other group right? Also animals eat each other…

@aaronpaul_8 @Evy_Lynch True hunters are conservationists to the core. That bastard is no true hunter.
