    I remember reading about this, caused a lot of controversy since he didn't really break any law. Still setting a bad example imo considering it's illegal in the state he presides over.

    I think they were right to have him stand down. Whats everyone else's thoughts?

    Well I think if there was justice in this world he would lose more than just his job. Killing such a magnificent (and slowly reproducing) creature for "sport" should be considered a major crime in any bloody state.

    They did the right thing IMO. There's not much point having a man in a position where he clearly doesn't abide by the institution's own ethos.
