[Blackbird]

...and it's not bass players funkin' it up. It's interspecies mafia style revenge for Steve Irwin.

Yeah, I read about this. Reawlly disturbing actually.

 

[KeithBMI]

Steve loved animals, he would never want something like this to happen.

 

[Peter Squire]

:scowl: Saw that too. Very disturbing stuff. Totally against the whole Steve Irwin philosophy.

 

[kserg]

Funny how disrespectful it is towards a person they are doing it for.

Poor Steve...

I'm not sure how killing animals in the name of Steve Irwin makes these people feel better...like Keith and Pete (and Serg!) said he's probably up there shaking his head right now.

Idiots. Steve would be pissed.

+1. I hate idiots like that.

Are we sure that these are Irwin motivated killings? I know that Steve Irwin's death is the most likely motivation, but ten dead stingrays is not a lot. Is it possible that these stingrays were already dead, and were then mutilated?

 

[beaglesandbass]

i saw on the news last night that it was 11 in 1 day.

and they aren't just being killed, they are being mutilated.

 

[FrigginChris]

I think it's more of a fear thing rather than a steve irwin thing. it's that "one killed someone so they'll all kill us" mentality.

The War between Man and Mantas is at hand


(yeah I know the manta is not a stingray)

Idiots. Steve would be pissed.

Indeed.

I think it's more of a fear thing rather than a steve irwin thing. it's that "one killed someone so they'll all kill us" mentality.

That seems oddly familiar.

[labgnat]

kill or be killed

oh wait you could just leave em alone and they'd never bother you

 

[Poop-Loops]

Unless you were shooting a documentary and happened to disturb one that was just attacked by a shark.
