americanhunter.org revealed today that Avril Lavigne likes to hunt. And does she get shit for it? No. GoDaddy CEO Bob Parsons likes to hunt. Does he get slammed? Oh yeah, he gets slammed. Then again, Avril is a sexy pint-sized rocker from Canada, where they do that sort of thing. Parsons is an OFWG (Old Fat White Guy); a Marine from Baltimore who won the Purple Heart and the Vietnam Gallantry Cross. Apparently Parson’s still a target, only more so now that PETA’s caught wind of his African exploits. What’s more, “GoDaddy competitor NameCheap.com also tried to capitalize on the outrage by offering a special deal to customers who transfer their domains to their service,” nydailynews.com reports. “The company promised to donate $1 to the organization Save the Elephants for every transfer.”

  1. Well, first of all, I see modern day Rhodesia has turned out well! So good that forty years of Zimbabwe has prospered after control was handed to Communist backers. As for the video-these farmers and villagers are ”sucking on rocks” for food-shooting bull elephants is a no-brainer. I’m not into political correctness, but the music-”if you’re into evil you’re a friend of mine”-might not have been the best choice for public consumption, intentional or not. I think the near food riot told the whole story, but I am sure someone will cry…

  2. God Bless Bob Parsons. He’s a guy who’s a self-made man – somebody who is self-reliant and doesn’t stomach any of this PC crap about how we should all wait for the Nanny State to make our lives better. He’s a throwback to an earlier time, when men were MEN, women were women, and everyone liked it that way, kind of a modern day Hemmingway. I like the guy, at least what I know of him. And I feel certain that his response to this dust-up will be vintage USMC: Short, sweet, and to-the-point; a middle-finger salute from all those second-raters who can’t possibly do what he’s done, as they don’t have the stones for it.

    • “when men were MEN, women were women, and everyone liked it that way”

      You mean like when women weren’t allowed to vote?

      Really, Brad, I hope your tongue is at least a little ways into your cheek.

  3. I see what you mean, but apparently so are African villagers! Also, the elephants would get more sympathy if they quit with the sex tapes…really!

  4. I would have loved to let him use my BONE COLLETOR with the 700 grain T-REX round on that elephant. Now that elephant will no longer be a problem.

    • Bob did good enough, Joe, I clearly heard that bull say “come over here and make me extinct, you sexy bastard!”

  5. OT: Rhodesia, and then Zimbabwe, was the breadbasket of sub-Saharan Africa for decades, exporting enough food to feed most of its poorer and less fertile neighbors. Then Robert Mugabe decided to accelerate the pace of ‘land reform’ (confiscation and redistribution of farmland) by encouraging his thugs to murder the usually white farmers and simply steal their farms. After enough murders most of the farmers got the 411 and fled, and now Zimbabwe is starving.

    Robert Mugabe is actually an embarrassment to other African dictators, which is quite a remarkable distinction in a continent which is the exemplar of incompetent and corrupt governance.

    • Awesome, someone is up on history! If I recall correctly, it was also greed and an expansive soviet-supplied military which led to Ethiopia’s troubles as well-and the arrival of Sally Struthers.

  6. I hunt, and I certainly don’t have a problem with Africans eating the animals that are available. But this “Great White Hunter” thing just creeps me out. Handing out GoDaddy hats, etc. There’s just too much ugly colonial history there. I’m sure he paid a ton of money to the government to shoot that elephant, and hopefully that money will do some good, but I doubt it will do much.

  7. LOL! Africa. Everything over there turns to mayhem. Just saying. Free T-shirts – mayhem. Free Rod Stewart CDs – mayhem.

      • If only poverty and desperation were the two causes for the way Africa is. The place is mayhem because the leaders, the followers, everybody is down with the chaos. Having lived so long this way I am not sure there is a way out of it. For me, a smile is comfort.

      • There are plenty of desperately poor people who manage to live calm, orderly lives. They often pull themselves out of poverty while they’re at it.

        Poverty is not the cause of uncivilized behavior; usually the opposite is true.

          I couldn’t agree more.

  8. Good job Mr. Parsons. Solved a predatory elephant problem and alot of villagers went to bed that night with their first full belly in probably a long time. Hard to believe that alot of people just don’t know how much hunting, and hunters in general ,contribute to the economies of these countries and help fund their wildlife departments for the overall betterment of the animals. All anti-hunters contribute are meaningless psycho-babble and warm,fuzzy feelings in their own minds and stomachs.
