191. Do you want to see the real evil hurting wildlife?
Thu Mar 15, 2012, 02:00 PM
Mar 2012

I have been reading the posts on this thread and trying to understand all the different angles people have for hating these boys. I am starting to believe the main focus against them is nothing more than class warfare. Dady made lots of money so we must hate them. If this is not the case how come we can find no referrence on these forums to the curious case of Mr. Ngubane from KwaZuluNatal? In the year 2007 Mr. Ngubane was arrested with 58 leopard skins he had poisoned using a nasty chemical called Temik. After being convicted and sentenced to COMMUNITY SERVICE, he was caught in the year 2008 with 92 leopard skins from cats he had poisoned! The entire quota for all of KwaZuluNatal for sustainable harvest of leopard is 5. In a matter of 2 years this one asshole managed to whipe out 30 years of sustainable harvest, and they failed to convict him in 2008. He single handedly has threatened to run a species out of an ecosystem And yall will never say or here anything about him! Why? Because you all are too busy cussing a couple of dorks that you found pictures of.
