Bloody Disgusting:: GoDaddy CEO's graphic elephant hunt - GoFuckYourself.com

GoDaddy CEO's graphic elephant hunt video sends his clients flocking to competitors, and helps raise $20,000 for elephant charity

video of an American CEO shooting an elephant in Zimbabwe, which villagers then sliced apart for meat, has raised thousands of dollars for a conservation group after a rival Internet firm used the graphic footage to steal away customers.
The founder of Save The Elephants, Iain Douglas-Hamilton, said he was surprised but appreciative by the more than $20,000 in funds raised by Internet domain registration site Namecheap.
Namecheap offered to donate $1 for every customer who opened a new account with them, after the chief executive of their competitor GoDaddy.com appeared in the video of an elephant being killed last month.

You're right, they should have just let the elephant kill those crops and kill those people. Fuck people, elephants can feel and think. I'd rather 1000 people die than a single elephant. How dare he.

???

I'm sure he paid in the high xx,xxx to be able to hunt an elephant and the money goes a long way towards helping elephants in the wild. Otherwise the village people would have killed it anyways, got no money for it, and elephants that don't need to suffer would suffer.

In conclusion if you are against him killing this elephant you are for the extinction of elephants. That is all.

st0ned · 04-14-2011, 08:50 PM

Who cares really? Are you a vegetarian?

I am sure you've eaten a cow, pig, or chicken right? Please explain the difference.

Is it better because most of them are raised in horrible conditions to be slaughtered and wind up on our dinner table?

I see no issue what-so-ever with killing an animal for food. In this instance there were other positive outcomes as well because now the people can eat the crops which they have been raising.

I find it comical when all of these people cry over things like this when they enjoy BEEF on a weekly basis.

If anything, this makes me want to move my domains FROM Namecheap TO Godaddy.

potter · 04-14-2011, 09:01 PM

stfu who cares.

i bet all those moving away from godaddy or upset over this kill hundreds or thousands of animals every year with their credit card at the grocery store or fast food joint. and animals who are born into the most horrible living conditions.

hypocrites.

You cant possibly believe that those people need bob parsons to roll into town to shoot their elephants for them so they don't starve?

I don't know how you can be so sure what other people eat, but one difference is the people who kill cows, pigs or chickens generally don't video themselves and pose with the animal they've just killed. They do it because it's their job, not necessarily because they actually like killing animals.

Why? Is that the only possible alternative to being shot dead in a publicity stunt for a shitty, low-rent domain registrar?

Where in the article does it say Parsons ate the elephant? I'm sure he can afford to dine wherever he likes.

The elephant was going to be killed either way......

Telling clients to from this point on to use something else.

cherrylula · 04-15-2011, 05:22 AM

I haven't paid much attention to this issue, people do what they do.

But seeing villagers with godaddy hats on now, that's just terrible and like a cherry on the pile of shit. What a scumbag. lol

czarina · 04-15-2011, 05:23 AM

I moved all my domains to NameCheap when that came out

I eat beef, don't mind hunting, I still think this guy is a fucking idiot.

You eat meat to sustain yourself and because you believe it is important to your diet. Hunting somehow connects you to food, to nature itself.

Small dick bob parsons killed that animal for no other reason than making himself look a big man.

It's like someone learning mma vs someone fighting smaller guys in bars to make himself look big. A fight isn't just a fight, a kill isn't just a kill. Its the motive behind it that make an idiot

BJ · 04-15-2011, 06:01 AM

the first "real Job" I had when I was 19 was working for Abercrombie and Kent. If you never heard of them, then you are probably not rich.

They sold all types of these safaris and I use to have the distinct pleasure of depositing the checks of MANY well known CEO's of huge companies at the time that wanted nothing more than to drop 20g's to go shoot some shit in Africa.

I also presently have the pleasure of knowing the CEO of a company who is in charge of over 8000 people who likes to spend his weekends banging hookers in Thailand while his family stays in hong kong.

So, the point is, I'd say alot of powerful people do all kinds of crazy shit and you just never hear about it.
