Wisconsin to Slaughter Hundreds of Wolves in Just Six Days
by Friends of the Wisconsin Wolf & Wildlife
(Reblogged from Our Wisconsin Wildlife)
If any more evidence was needed about what an absolutely cruel and vile state Wisconsin is, look no farther than the events of the past five days regarding our gray wolf population. As a quick summary this is what happened.
An out of state trophy killing organization that is run by a far right Koch Brother alum, a disgraced bigot, a draft dodging convicted poacher, wildlife snuff film makers, and a smattering of other bigots, poachers, and cretins sued the State of Wisconsin and demanded that an immediate wolf killing season begin. Of course they just happened to find a judge, a gun aficionado and hunter, in the wolf saturated area of Jefferson County in SE Wisconsin (that was sarcasm) who ruled in their favor and ordered to Wisconsin DNR to immediately plan and carry out a wolf slaughter in February.
Want to know a little more about this Jefferson County Judge? Here is a quote from when he was sworn in in 2017:
Judgeship is a nonpartisan position and I can honestly say Ive never been completely affiliated with one party or the other, he said. I do have strong beliefs on the Second Amendment that I share with Judge Koschnick. In fact, I think I have stronger because I have more weapons.
The hunters comment earned a round of roaring laughter from those in attendance.
Guns and killin. How hilarious!

If these Neanderthals will murder mourning doves, they'll murder anything.
