Louis Theroux...

on big game hunting last night...

It had me confused, I'm not sure where I stand on it all Confused

Ok, so they're treated well, breeds are being carried on that are elsewhere dying out due to poachers, it brings money to the area, and so on, but it's still killing for sport.

It doesn't sit easy with me, even though the counter-argument does make sense, it's still Americans paying money to kill animals for tropheys for their walls.

I thought he showed his true colour when he said he ate the meat, but couldn't pull the trigger. I feel embarrassed about how he lures these people into opening up in front of him and his cameras so that he can heavily edit his long disapproving face into the sequence every few minutes. I bet he had a whale of a time whilst he was there. The guy who 'flipped' at him asking the same question six times knew he was being set up.

He said he ate meat, not wart hog meat.

I heard him say he ate the meat. I don't suppose you get M&S Honey Roasted Ham out there.

I'm not saying I agree with the practice. I would be happy to just photograph them.

I thought he said 'suxteen times'.... Laughing

Louis is doggedly persistent about the few points he makes. he seems to have no real desire to explore an issue in depth with a truly open mind. its not the first time I've thought that about his programmes.
