Pleeeeeeze…
Why would any sane human being in the year 2009 watch this?

If you find it irresistible to watch this than you should refrain from procreating…abort if you are pregnant, and if you are married with children I would strongly suggest a family suicide pact as soon as you can.
We just don’t need your type in the gene pool…

We’re way past being entertained by this stuff…Aren’t we…

shoot me.

Why is this news? It’s completely natural for a lion to kill a herbivore. Those who are offended by that are certainly doing their part to make our nation a nation of pansies and pillow-biters.

Woody   November 9th, 2009 - 5:22 am

America has become a nation of pansies.

John,

The only thing that would be better than watching this video is if you jumped over the wall and tried to get away from the lions. We would love to see ‘your type’ in that pool.

No, we’re not past this. We’re romans waiting for the next spectacle in the area.

At least those caged animals finally got to put their natural instincts to good use, if only for a moment. Good for them.

Its evolution Petas sure quiet

Guess all those anger-management classes the libs made the lion take didn’t work.

John, you need to change your diaper and face reality. It’s nature you weakling. Nature is a brutal place where animals are routinely eaten alive by other animals or starve to death. The vast majority of the dying that goes on in the wild is slow and painful. Would you scold people for watching a video of a pack of wolves attacking a “poor defenseless baby deer”? I certainly would hope not because it’s on the Discovery Channel. That’s okay though John, I’m sure some day when the planet is “green”, there is world peace, and all the animals live in harmony as vegetarians in your adolescent Utopia view of the world all will be magical.
I was so happy for those lions. Creatures like that exist to hunt and kill to survive, its how they’re designed physically and mentally. So I’m glad the lions were given the opportunity to chase something. I wish they would have let them finish it off and eat it. It must have been so long since the lions go a chance to do that.

Did you not ever hear the fable about the scorpion and the frog John? This is natural selection. It happens in the wild every day. The big difference is, there are no cameras in the wild.

James K   November 9th, 2009 - 10:21 am

They’re cheering for the lion right?

I agree with Woody above. America is a nation of pansies.

In the green future we will witness this routinely. Wolf packs will attack and kill humans as they did for eons until our weapons got sharper then theirs. We will all be targets of that which we once controlled. Nature finally taking it’s vengence on us for daring to claim species supremacy. ..unless of course your hanging out at the Al Gore compound

Stupid deer for living in the District. If it moved over to the Virginia side and got a concealed carry permit, that lion would’ve kept its distance.

Go watch the Enviros crying and weeping about dead trees on BigGovernment.
It’s a hoot.

Look in the mirror, idiots!   November 9th, 2009 - 12:47 pm

If we are a nation of pansies then Woody and James K. are the biggest of the bunch!

Mike   November 9th, 2009 - 2:00 pm

ACORN has some video specials on their website.. titles like “Prostitutes on Chicago Street Corners”, “Pelosi’s Big Bouncing Wrinkled Melons go to Washington”, “Liberal Wolf Pack Tears Apart America” … each video comes with a coupon to Church’s Chicken.

John, Woody, what are you guys, the official censors of the new Obama Nanny State? At Breitbart-TV, we watch what we want and people like you will not tell us what to watch or not, you nanny wannabe’s. Mind your own beeswax, and BTW , I noticed you watched it too, you doofus!

Woody   November 9th, 2009 - 9:11 pm

Oye Pequeño Cojones, no te metas en esta conversación. Tu no sabes de lo que hablas.

Roger B.   November 10th, 2009 - 11:30 am

John,

Excuse me…. I bet you were one of the millions watching balloon boy. Hello?

michael w   November 10th, 2009 - 12:17 pm

I don’t get it. People have been going to the zoo for decades to be entertained. Why would you scream if it happened to be feeding time? They are lions, they eat.
