Unless you were there and heard the entire conversation, you're just making a bunch of wild ass suppositions. Exactly like the people you're bitching about.

LOL! You totally prove my point. I wasn't bitching, just pointing out that most folks will do exactly nothing with extreme examples.
Think about it - If someone had helped early on, the mass hysteria would not have happened. And that areas would still be open to hunting next year. How many acres just got lost?
The local hunter guy who was whining to the media coulda called a couple of his local buddies and said, Y'all aint gonna believe what these dumbasses did - you got time to load up that riverboat of yours and come and help these old dudes get the elk outta sight before church lets out and this place is crawling with tree huggers? If that happened, no nationwide news article. Wow! But we know what he did - you read it.
The article said there were some folks who got real nasty. The article also did say that of all the folks who were there - 1 guy actually did something positive and constructive and helped get the elk.
We often just shake our heads and walk away. But what if we didn't? What if we shook our heads, went over and said - hey, I can help you out. Here's what we need to do - are you up for this?
And what if someone came over and offered to help you/me/us with something embarrassing or stupid? And we just said - you know - thanks. I didn't know what to do, let's give it a go. Aint gonna get any worse. Oh, by the way, I'm Larry...
What a great world it would be. All we gotta do is step out and help instead of bitching or doing nothing.
Yeah, I wasn't there. Suppositions, suppositions.
