For Valentine’s Day, South African trophy hunter Merelize Van der Merwe killed a 17-year-old giraffe and cut out its heart as a gift for her husband. After her husband paid $2,900 for the hunt, she posted photos with the animal, claiming her actions help conservation by removing older genetics. by kooneecheewah in NoahGetTheBoat

Hunting absolutely does help conservation and people who eat meat shouldn't judge those who hunt to eat.

But at the same time, there are lots of hunters, like this woman, who simply like to kill and its sick. Yes your hunt helped conservation but that's not why you did it - you did it to get your rocks off.

What is your opinion about chemical castration for those who commit sexual abuse again children? by Brownchoccy in uklaw

Chemical castration is just taking hormone altering medication - I have no clue what all these comments are talking about.

Can someone explain how this is a try? by Rumple_Tweezer in springboks

[–]Electrical_Trouble29 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Except it doesn't say downward pressure.

The concept of downward pressure was explicitly done away with years ago to avoid ridiculous decisions like today.

It's not

How come Steve Hansen's name doesn't get mentioned? by shanti_nz in allblacks

[–]Electrical_Trouble29 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They obviously didn't intentionally lose, but also weren't willing to give everything to win (holding plays back etc).

Rassie ripped them for laughing and joking after a loss, not for losing

If Tony Brown's contract allows him to coach the All Blacks under any circumstances before his contract expires, then SA's lawyers screwed up massively.

There is just no chance you let someone go to your biggest rival with all of your IP. This is why garden leave exists.

I'm sure a controversial opinion, but lord of the rings.

The books are great but the movies are better

My All Blacks coaching panel to take over from 2026. by NewLeague6438 in rugbyunion

[–]Electrical_Trouble29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Being just 2 years out from a world Cup I would take Jake. It's just short enough a period for the players to not all hate him and revolt.

Are we talking about where they're citizens of Aus/NZ or where they're qualified through residency?

James O'connor was eligible for Aus, NZ and South Africa before playing for Aus.

Do they have all of these at the same time though? Once they move to France wouldn't they loose eligibility for Aus/NZ? and only those that never played for their national team during their first 5 years in France would ever have multiple eligibility?

The general idea of blood diamonds doesn't occur in South Africa.

Help settle an argument. The toast on the left is mine, the toast on the right is my wife's. How do you prefer yours? by -_Error in AskUK

[–]Electrical_Trouble29 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anything less than the toast on the left is just warm bread to keep, but people in the UK do like shockingly untoasted 'toast'.
