'Evil' Hindu Practices

[Husky]

His most catholic majesty of Spain, still playing the "great white christian hunter". In Botswana. Elephant hunting. (But he pays good moolah for it, or so I understand.)



Meanwhile, the christoterrorists want to abolish Hindoo temple elephants in Hindoo India, which are actually very well treated (being well-loved) by their Hindoos, despite the dawaganda. [See for instance the early/mid 90s western documentary on the Kanchi Kamakoti Peetham/Matham, which has many scenes in the background of the caretakers looking after their Kanchi Kamakshi temple elephants like dear family members, like the sacred Gods themselves. In fact, one of the elephants was named in the video as Kamakshi.]

King and Controversy

by



Bob Colacello



Before dawn on Friday, April 13, 2012, King Juan Carlos of Spain took a fall while on an elephant-hunting safari in Botswana and was immediately flown home to Madrid, where he underwent emergency hip-replacement surgery the next morning. Were it not for the injury, His Majesty’s African adventure would have no doubt remained a secret, as had almost everything to do with his private life since he took the throne, in 1975, upon the death of Generalissimo Francisco Franco, the long-ruling dictator who had arranged for the restoration of the monarchy. Instead, the 75-year-old King—long accustomed to stratospheric popularity ratings and deferential treatment from the press for his role in securing Spain’s democracy—was confronted with an avalanche of scathing criticism. “The spectacle of a monarch hunting elephants in Africa while the economic crisis in our country causes so many problems for Spaniards transmits an image of indifference and frivolity,” thundered El Mundo, Spain’s leading conservative newspaper. The country’s largest paper, El País, calculated that a luxury safari like the King’s would cost nearly $60,000 (including $15,000 for the permit and fees to kill an elephant)—twice the average annual salary in a country suffering through the worst depression in Europe after Greece’s.



(So that's the price for pointlessly taking an elephant's life. He better eat it instead of wasting its life. I would stuff the whole carcass down his throat. Or if he won't, I could ram my arm into his throat and pull out his innards as recompense - and charge him another 60 grand for the service.

Demons.



No, *I'm* not the violent one.

"Geweld lost niets op." O nee? In ieder geval "lucht 't wèl op".

Nevertheless, must say it would actually solve most things I identify as a problem.



Interesting that the El Mundo paper only complains that the monarch's elephant hunting is objectionable in light of the then economic crisis in Spain, but not for its own sake.

So much for Indian cryptochristo and western feigning of concern for Hindu temple elephants.)



Nearly every Spanish newspaper, TV channel, and online news site ran the now infamous photograph of Juan Carlos standing proudly in front of a dead elephant, which he had killed on a previous undisclosed big-game shoot. Compounding the embarrassment, four days before the King’s fall, his 13-year-old grandson—the son of his older daughter—had shot himself in the foot during target practice at one of the royal family’s country houses, and police were investigating the incident because in Spain the use of firearms by those under the age of 14 is illegal. This in turn had allowed the press to bring up a family tragedy that had occurred 56 years earlier, when Juan Carlos, then 18, accidentally shot and killed his 14-year-old brother, Alfonso.

A pox on him. <- Almost feels like overkill, considering his family seems to already be cursed into shooting itself/each other. Interesting that he murdered I mean manslaughtered his own brother. Wonder whether it wasn't just an accident as it's made out to be above. Probably wasn't: I think he's just bloodthirsty as a rule. But he got away with doing away with Alfonso.
