Schadenfreude?

[wolf63]

I am probably being totally heartless but these guys, surely, knew the risks involved - and they have paid the ultimate price.

Tut tut, shame on all of you!! Revelling and celebrating the horrific death of 3 poor innocents just looking to make a living!

I say this very t-i-c because when I pointed out recently the irony(with no blood-thirsty zeal) of a pastor who was baptising his flock was naturally selected for ‘heaven’ by a crocodile I was lambasted by a few, but don’t let karma run over your dogma I say.

Shockingly inconsistent moderation on AB, as ever......

"Why can't these poachers be stopped, why???"

Because they lurk, it's what poachers the world over do.

ChillDoubt, chill, you can't fight city hall.

I hope those cats enjoyed their banquet.

[Prudie]

I hope they were conscious long enough to realise they were getting their comeuppance.

[cassa333]

Who needs guard dogs when you have guard lions?

[rowanwitch]

If only this happened more often.

[andy-hughes]

I really can't bring myself to gloat over the deaths of anyone killed like this, although I do understand that there is an argument that they got what they deserved.

I believe they did die by the proverbial sword, but that doesn't make me feel joyful or satisfied about it.

^How noble.

\\limited sympathy, but these will just be poor guys in a poor country trying to feed their families.\\

If they are trying to feed their families they can shoot a zebra, wildebeest, rabbit, Gazelle, instead of something they cant eat.

Good riddance I say and I hope the lions enjoyed every mouthful.

[andy-hughes]

Some have to confuse 'nobility' with simple humanity in their pursuit of cheap point-scoring.

[bodeker]

Sorry , no sympathy at all.

Why do you feel the need to apologise for your view?
