    I found this a pretty interesting read regarding some legal issues and possibilities of punishments Palmer could be facing in the death of Cecil. Also, note the last graf concerning internet postings and legal issues regarding that as pertains to Dick Whitman's point.

    Dentist who shot Cecil the lion finds himself in a legal thicket

    Basically, internet postings mean nothing, really, in terms of ruining a person's life (which was my opinion but I felt that should be obvious) unless the threat can likely be taken truly seriously and can be seen as more than just words/spouting off.

    Zimbabwe demanding Palmer's extradition is pretty ballsy considering the body count and the general corruption of Robert Mugabe.

    Cecil's cubs are really fucked now:

    The cubs fathered by Cecil the lion are being protected by his brother amid fears they will be killed by a male rival, researchers said today.

    The much-loved lion was killed by American dentist Walter Palmer earlier this month, sparking outrage around the world.

    After his death, there were fears his cubs would be killed by the next lion in the hierarchy so he could father his own offspring with the females in the pride.

    But a team at Oxford University's Wildlife Conservation Unit, which had been studying Cecil before he was shot dead, said the lion's brother had stepped in to safeguard the young.

    A better fate than Jericho, the CBS TV series.

    Yeah, kinda like us always trying to keep other countries from having nukes.

    Pretty ballsy coming from the only nation ever to use one against another people.
