Comments on: Bo Derek: A Little Hypocritical? http://www.ecorazzi.com/2008/07/25/bo-derek-a-little-hypocritical/ Causes Entertainment Lifestyle Pop Culture Sun, 12 Feb 2012 21:37:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: sara http://www.ecorazzi.com/2008/07/25/bo-derek-a-little-hypocritical/comment-page-1/#comment-120453 sara Mon, 28 Jul 2008 06:48:02 +0000 http://www.ecorazzi.com/?p=7699#comment-120453 The thing is, I just can't find much about it except for the fact that she is a "regular hunter." Does this mean for sport, for food, for pelts--what? Which animals? And it doesn't get nearly as much exposure as her fighting for horses... why is that, if she is openly an advocate for the NRA? Why fight against the consumption of one animal but then kill others? And then advocate an administration that has wrecked so much destruction on habitats and various species? It just seems very odd to me. The thing is, I just can’t find much about it except for the fact that she is a “regular hunter.” Does this mean for sport, for food, for pelts–what? Which animals?

Both "Neither Wolf Nor Dog" by Ken Nerburn, and "Stuff" by John Ryan, outline in detail how much energy and waste is both expending and produced through the production of food. As painful as this is to our beloved friends at PETA and the like, Bo's "wild game hunting" may very well have a significantly less carbon footprint than going to Safeway or Whole Foods and buying Nasoya tofu. It is very easy to cast blame and aspersions. It is liberating to judge not, educate, and then for each of us to individually craft the way that bests suits one's lifestyle and ability to change for the benefit of us all.

Bottom line... I am an animal right's activist and I hate George Bush BUT I could see why someone would hunt rather than buy the dead animal at the grocery store. I mean.. didn't the Native Americans respect the earth and animals yet they hunted them? IF I were to eat meat I'd rather eat a duck that was shot flying and enjoyed life right up to the last second than a duck who never saw water his whole life and was stuck in a stall... Just my two cents... Peace E I have never been to “the races” in my life though I’ve been invited to the Kentucky Derby and grew up 45 minutes away from there.

Eating horses is bad, but watching them run to death, wear out and die isn't? Pretty hypocritical! You’re absolutely right.

No one seems to question her on this stuff. The latest deaths of sure-thing Big Brown and the philly Eight Belles are bringing to light what is wrong with that industry.
