They will not come and protest in the south where hunting and fishing is a way of life.
If it can get them a bunch of press and some donations they will show up.
When they will face danger of bodily harm they won't.
It's real easy to be a superhero on the internet.
The same thing was started about the swamp people show . It's easy to talk crap on the net but they won't come to piere part???

Actually, odd enough, I haven't seen anything directly from PETA about this, although the people making these horrible comments about this woman are likely of the same mind set. Oh, I'm sure PETA has spoken up about it, I just haven't seen that yet. Just anti-hunters in general. They'll say something like "the alligator was just satisfied to be safe in his own environment, then this b**ch comes along and kills him for absolutely no reason". Give me a BREAK! That's paraphrased, but the comments are pretty much like that. And that's the nice ones. One person said if she should have been killed by the gator, just STUPID, CRAZY stuff like that. There's several videos of the news story where the woman is talking about it o YouTube, and one guy commented that the alligator, shown dead on the pavement and hanging from a tractor on a chain, "looked sad". I'm NOT making this up! It's INSANE. South Carolina law requires the gator to be hooked, harpooned, or otherwise secured to the boat before they can kill it. Well this was a two hour fight, and eight shots didn't kill it, so either the woman or her guide severed it's spinal cord with a knife. Well, the anti's are saying she "tortured" the alligator for hours, shot it eight times, and then stabbed it. Alligators, as I understand, can SOMETIMES (not always) be about as hard to kill as an M1 Abrams tank. Small kill spot, requiring perfect shot placement. Even that doesn't work sometimes. The anti's just don't get it. They DON'T WANT to get it either.
