As big as this alligator was, they should have given him a medal,” Milner said.

For what? Killing something there’s too few of to make the world a teeny bit safer and more boring for a few million of us? Anybody that gets eaten by a ‘gator probably needed to be removed from the gene pool anyway.

Real sporting. If you did this with a knife, now we’re talking an even fight.

Sure, you could make an argument that killing ‘monster’ gators is for the benefit of…. something. Livestock. Well being. Livelihood. But how many monster gators attack people? It could be more than I know, but I doubt the number is high. Why? Because most people would stay away from a monster gator if they saw one.

It’s kinda like Jaws…. when it starts eating people then kill it. But don’t punish nature for doing what nature does. Don’t kill sharks because a movie tells you they’re evil. Don’t kill gators because you can prove you’re a big man.

Unless you need to prove it, I guess. Then go right ahead.

Until the law finds you guilty.
