Bill Maher: If you’re trying to kill elephants and an elephant kills you instead… ‘good’

On this week’s Real Time on HBO, host Bill Maher may have ruffled a few feathers when he expressed amusement that an big game hunter was killed by the elephant he was hunting.

Maher was speaking about Ian Gibson, who was trampled to death last week by an elephant he hoped to take home as a trophy.

“If you make your living stalking and killing innocent animals, as professional game hunter Ian Gibson did, and you’re leading a safari to kill elephants, as Ian Gibson was, and during that safari an elephant tramples you to death… good.”

Harsh, but I can’t say I entirely disagree.
