PH killed in Zimbabwe
Scott van Zyl, a Professional Hunter in South Africa and Zimbabwe was recently killed by crocodiles in Zimbabwe. He leaves behind a wife and 2 children. If you wish, you can donate to his family through the Dallas Safari Club, I think the donations are tax deductible. I could be wrong. Scott was a friend of Chris Troskie.
Please send your prayers for his family.

That is a terrible shame. Prayers to his family.
I wonder if we could get the libatards to go and talk some sense into those crocs...?

Re: PH killed in Zimbabwe
Gunnymack, I was looking for need about him. I saw a bunch of liberal news sites saying horrible and stupid things. The people posting comments were, in my opinion, mentally ill. They should have to be placed on a riverbank in Africa and told to show their love and nonviolence to the wildlife. To say that a man who has earned a license as a PH in South Africa and Zimbabwe is a coward or is making up for other shortcomings is unbelievably idiotic. I would love to see the trolls try their love and magic mushrooms approach on a wild predator.

Besides snakes---any darn kind--- an croc is one animal I would have the greatest joy in planting a bullet into.

Re: PH killed in Zimbabwe
Hmm, how could we go about getting a hug a croc campaign going?
Bumper stickers? HAVE YOU HUGGED A CROC TODAY?

Re: PH killed in Zimbabwe
A tragic loss of a man much respected. Prayers for his family.
He was a professional hunter and one would assume he knew the hazards of his trade in the environment that he chose to work in.
The lesson I get from this sad event is an old one, and that is that there is every possibility that a momentary lapse or letting one's guard down in a dangerous environment can end badly, and it can happen to people who know what they are doing as well as to any one else.
Again, prayers for his family.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.
History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.

@ GunnyMack: What a crock! That idea will never fly (or swim).
