Uh, no. It warrants a jail sentence.

idiots should be locked up imo.

Putting people in jail is horrifically over rated. A fine is better for him, and for everyone else. I was gonna say what sheo did, but he took care of it already.

Whether someone notices or not shouldn't matter. Stealing is stealing.
So he should receive more prison time than a murderer? Because he stole money nobody would notice? I'd just fine him the amount stolen and give him a max of like five or ten years, if that.

It may be "Just a bird" to you, but it means alot more to us then you prolly think. The poacher got what he deserved, IMO.

No it's not "just a bird" to me. It's an endangered species, and it's a living creature. But bear in mind that we kill and eat birds by the million every day. Okay it's a special kind of bird, that has some significance to America (why you have a "national animal" that holds so much more significance than the "national animals" (and I use that term loosely) of other countries is beyond me) but this guy spent 12 years in prison for it.

I think murdering an animal is just as bad a murdering a human being.

Do you eat meat?

Yeah, but that dosen't make me think otherwise on murdering animals just for sport. I only eat meat sold in the USA if thats what you meant(No dog or Cat meat).

So you class "murdering of animals" as "people killing animals I don't like the taste of"? You said that "murdering" animals was as bad as murdering people, yet you eat slaughtered animals probably every day. What's the difference?

And if you say "we need food to survive, so killing some animals is okay", then would it be okay to kill a human for food? I mean that's not "sport".

How did this go from a Presidential Pardon to Canibalism?

Good point. I think it's because some people are trying to chime into the thread without having read up everything before hand and taking the argument way out of context.

My opinion on the matter is President Bush did right. It's not proof George Bush hates America, it's proof that he has some care for Americans. *I realize that last statement could spark a long and exhausting argument over the war, but let's not go there as it would be even more off topic than the current thread trend.*

It has bee stated before and seemingly ignored, but I'll say it again. The man had no intention or thought of killing the eagles. He was just trying to protect his livelihood from coyotes; he was a victim of chance. Therefore, I think 12 years of the man's life was complete overkill as a punishment.

There is a diffrence between hunting for food and canibalism...

Bears, Lions, and other Carnivores sometimes kill humans for food, so we kill them back for food. It evens out.

But you said that murdering animals is equal to murdering humans. What makes cannibalism so bad? The meat we eat all pretty much comes from murdered animals. Millions of them die every year to feed us! If you're seriously putting the animnals' lives on equal value with humans', then horrific genocide on a scale many times that of the Holocaust is going on in every nation of the world, right now!!1
