This angers me as well. He needs 5 hours of mental health treatment, not mental preparation...0

:::sigh::: poor lion; gotta fight some moron...is it wrong to say i hope the lion wins :grumble:0
-
Maybe he'll get eaten. :bigsmile:0

What a moron. And the people who are sanctioning it, or those who go to watch are equally idiotic. Hope the lion wins and takes one more defective set of genes out of the gene pool. Let's hope he hasn't procreated already.0

Yes, let's hope the lion wins.
Idiot.0 -
Idiot. If I were going to Egypt as a tourist I'd choose a different destination after reading that.0

Sorry about your penis!0

GET HIM, SIMBA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
what a dumb *kitten*... :grumble:0 -
Absolutely barbaric! WTF! And who are the idiots allowing this and PUSHING for it as if it will have a positive outcome? And what if he HAPPENS to injure the lion? Freaking ridiculous!!!!! So... that got me a bit angry :explode:

Go lion go. Hey you, out of the pool (gene pool that is)0

Pffp!! I'd be more impressed with this guy if he fought one of you guys!0

You guys are being kinda harsh. He's just a man trying to put on a good show for his countrymen and internationals. The lion is just an animal. People kill animals for sport all the time. It's sad that you all would rather a human die, than an animal.
That being said; he will not win the fight. Not even with a shield and dagger.
Good luck, dude!0 -
C'mon dude. Just because everyone does it makes it OK?
People hunt animals and eat them, that is one thing. Doing this just because he wants his 15 minutes of fame or to impress someone is just senseless.You guys are being kinda harsh.

Whether or not something is 'OK' is subjective. It differs from culture to culture, and from person to person.
If you want to get technical; if he is not breaking any laws, and what he is doing is generally accepted by society (which killing animals for sport is), then we can conclude that what he is doing is 'OK'.
Whether or not he eats the animal is irrelevant. We are talking about killing for sport. People do it all over the world... even to more defenseless animals.
What's wrong is hoping the man dies.
It's okay that the lion kills him, but it's crossing moral boundaries for the man to kill the lion?0 -

Well, he started it...0

I totally agree, I mean what is the purpose of saving these kind of animals??? He should fight all kinds of endangered species! pff who needs them!!0 -
Next thing you know, he'll be punching whales...0

Well, I don't agree with fighting endangered species. I guess it's a good thing lions aren't endangered, right?0 -

I do! what is the point of them??0 -
It would be more fun to watch him try to drag an airplane instead. If they want to increase tourism wouldn't an airplane be a better symbol and even more so they could get a major airline to help!
Come one, come all, see the crazy Egyptian guy drag an airplane with hooks through his skin!!
Seems like a better solution that doesn't involve PETA international getting their panties in a bunch.
Edited to add: Also it IS generally acceptable for people to kill for sport. It's even MORE so in countries other than the US. I had a boyfriend that was born and raised in Pakistan and bear fights and other blood sports were a weekly occurance. I think this is just another example of the typical American being ignorent and intollerant of other people's cultures. Would I personally endorse that kind of behavior is the US?? No, why? whats the difference? Well, simple. It's not acceptable here and more so it would be against the law. Especially the buying and selling of exotic animals.0 -
Wow! An actual Neanderthal! Who knew that there was still one that had not gone extinct?0

And in Egypt and Pakistan, you would have just broken the law for expressing your opinion on the matter. Just because it is socially acceptable, does not make it right!0 -
If he wanted to go out into the Sahara and fight a real lion, I'd be all for it. I'd pay to watch. But I can't see locking a lion in a cage for months, not allowing it to exercise, and most likely starving it to the point of exhaustion so that he can go in and rip it to shreds as being a "sport". It's not a fair fight. That is the part that upsets me. At least make it a fair fight.0
