Opinion | Rug Hunting in Grizzly Country – The New York Times

But this hunt is neither about managing a wildlife population that has exceeded the carrying capacity of its habitat, nor about putting healthy food on the table. Instead, this hunt is about what the great conservationist and thoughtful hunter Aldo Leopold, called a “certificate” — a trophy proving that it’s owner has “been somewhere and done something.” In the case of killing a grizzly, it means you’ve done something that has been considered difficult and dangerous. And it was, when you were hunting with a spear. But anyone who has shot a high-powered rifle knows that knocking off a grizzly bear is no more than an exercise in marksmanship, like shooting an elk. The difference is, you eat the elk. Grizzly bears are not hunted for their meat. Wyoming’s hunting regulations make this clear. If you shoot what’s called a “big game animal” in Wyoming, like an elk, a deer or an antelope, you’re legally bound to bring all the edible portions of the animal out of the field. But if you shoot what’s called “a trophy animal,” like a mountain lion, a black bear and, now, a grizzly, all you have to bring out is its skull and pelt.

Mark Rowley urges politicians and media not to underestimate threat of domestic extreme rightwing groups

The UK has not “woken up” to the threat posed by the far right, the former head of the Metropolitan police’s counter-terrorism unit has said.

Mark Rowley urged politicians, the media and communities not to underestimate the threat of far-right groups, citing how National Action, a proscribed neo-Nazi organisation, has “a strategy for a terrorist group” with online materials advising on how to sow tension and discord in communities and evade police surveillance.

fromchaostocosmos:

I feel like it needs pointing out that for many Jewish people 2018 is not the first time they have been persecuted for being Jewish. In fact many Jewish even the usa have been harassed and persecuted for being Jewish for years and years now.

Also Nazi and neo-Nazis don’t want to kill Jewish people due to our religion they want to kill us due a host of reasons that stem from the fact that we are racially inferior and they see us as an infestation.

Judaism is an ethno-religion and it is dangerous to erase that. The systematic effort to eradicate Jewish people by nazi was not about religious persecution and it is incredibly important to understand that.
