Cecil is a member of an endangered species. He is protected by law. 

Questions? 

Anyone playing devil's advocate is a putz. Amazing the talent cable takes on as legitimate. 

Where does anyone ever get the idea a life other than their own is up for debate? Where does that arrogance find footing in the face of laws? Everything is up for discussion in a warped sense of a greater understanding to dismiss the idea slaughtering animals protected by laws, some international, is okay? 

That has to be an American speaking. An arrogant and irreverent Americans who believes the world is theirs for the taking. 

America's media carries out arrogant discussions all the time. Arrogance and the right wing is what passed laws such as "Stand Your Ground." That same paradigm is at work when a minority falls to the guns of law enforcement for no reason at all. That arrogance is carried out in the legislative majority under the Capital Dome. 

Life has no meaning except what is their 'monetary value,' is that it? That is not arrogance entirely, it is a danger that can come to visit the arrogant as well. 

American arrogance is present in corruption. The majority Republicans practice corruption day after day and it is all okay. Corruption brought the USA to the brink of it's bond rating. But, who cares about that, the world after all could not exist without the USA. Arrogance took away protections. Voter rights protections by a oddly activist court and the legislators did dearly little to return those rights and protections to AMERICANS. 

So, here we are again, at the brink of arrogance to trash the idea of high esteem for protections for endangered species that live in countries outside USA borders. Ah, but, the slayer is an American. Just fact, not hubris.
