Anti hunters never let the truth interfere with their bullshit narrative.

The obvious intent in photoshopping this photo was to create an uproar and cause problems for the man in the photo.

Was the photo successful in causing a backlash?

What was the response? Did anyone care?

On some level, I wonder is this would be good for hunters. If the antis begin photoshopping photos, I can see it harming their reputation and basically causing the public to ignore them.

Maybe we need more photoshopped hunting photos? Kamala Harris hunting primates, Fauci with a tiger and crossbow, Biden with a triceratops and flintlock.....

Hunting in Africa is an adventure. The number of variables involved preclude the possibility of a perfect hunt. Some problems will arise. How you decide to handle them will determine how much you enjoy your hunt.

Just tell yourself, "it's all part of the adventure." Remember, if Robert Ruark had gotten upset every time problems with Harry
Selby's flat bed truck delayed the safari, Horn of the Hunter would have read like an indictment of Selby. But Ruark rolled with the punches, poured some gin, and enjoyed the adventure.

It has become a very common thing in the western countries but strangely this seems to never hurt the party that is black mailing the other.

You would think at some point it undermines the credibility of antis, but the momentum seems to be stronger....
