Father Teaches Child to Torture and Kill Animals
Girl, 8, Credited With Year’s 1st Bear Kill
Donald Stiles beamed as his daughter, dressed in hunters’ camouflage with a fluorescent orange vest, told how she skipped school to shoot the male bear.
And so begins a new generation of people who place no value on any life other than their own. A new generation of morally blind monsters. Little Sierra has joined the ranks of the remorseless killers. Just like daddy. The Stiles family must be so proud.
At 211 pounds, the bear Sierra killed was probably only a couple years old. Hardly even a teenager — in bear years. Black bears can live to be up to 30 years old. The only significant threats to their survival are humans (with guns and cars).
The black bears in Maryland are no threat to people or livestock there. Simply put, there is no “good” reason for allowing people to kill them. The Maryland bear hunt serves no other purpose than to satisfy the bloodlust of people like Donald Stiles and, now, his 8-year-old daughter.
I’m horrified.

Disgusting, isn’t it? I hate to sound like a liberal elitist snob–okay, no, I don’t–but it’s just such an ignorant, hickish, lowbrow thing to do. Great, just what this country needs: 8-year-old rednecks.
