    Isn't it cool how his disagreeing with the left allows you to be as racist as you want?

    Umm because only tranquilizer guns ever miss?

    No more self awareness than the person people he’s parodying.

    People get mad over wildlife being shot in jurisdictions of many political leanings.

    of course it would fairly simple to put together a "why are Floridians so stupid?" video, or a "why are Texans so stupid?" video, or even a "why are Oregonians so stupid?"

    Making one of those isn't clever. It marks the maker as some sort of schmuck (New York word I picked up in my youth).

    To me the video speaks to the left's obsession with a idealized fantasy future that doesn't address today's problem. No one wants to kill a mountain lion but problem of the here and now needs to be addressed for safety's sake. That would be a perfect
    world but you have to use some common sense and be practical about what can work now. The good cowboy can't really shoot the gun out of the bad cowboy's hand.

    Pretty much the case. A tranquilizer rifle can't hit a bear at 150', a mountain lion 70'.
    A trained officer can hit a quarter at that distance.

    No more self awareness than the person people hes parodyin

    Dr. Sowell seems to be much more aware of tranquizer guns and their limitations than the average liberal.
    1) They are not accurate 2) They take about 3 minutes minimum to work and if the animal is agitated or angry it can take
    half an hour or the animal can even shake the tranquilizer off. During that time the animal is hurt and pissed and definitely angry.

    People get mad over wildlife being shot in jurisdictions of many political >leanings.

    No one wants to choose to kill if there is a safe option.

    Here's what the Fish and Game said " using it would not have been a safe option given the surroundings and the time it takes tranquilizers to work."
    Here's the police side "It was a tough call, Police Chief Lynne Johnson said of the decision to shoot the lion instead of attempting to tranquilize
    it with a rifle-fired dart. It was moving, jumping from backyard to backyard, and when the officer had an opportunity ....She said there was also
    concern about how long it takes for a tranquilizer dart to work -- about 25 minutes -- during which time the lion could keep moving. In some cases, a
    darted lion could become more dangerous during that time, she said"

    BTW, this video was made by someone reading from a Dr. Sowell book written 18 years ago. The Californians of that time are geniuses by comparison
    to the Californians of today.

    That's going to require you marching in and killing that "bad cowboy", millions of times over.

    You have not the nerve to do it, California or otherwise.
