Dead Bear Carcass Wrapped in Obama Signs Dumped on NC College Campus
October 20, 2008
Western Carolina University in Cullowhee NC reports that a dead black bear cub wrapped in two Obama signs was discovered on the campus earlier this morning. The bear cub appears to have been killed by gun shot to the head. At this time there is no group or individual claiming responsibility for this act. North Carolina Wildlife Resources Commission Enforcement division is heading the investigation. Currently bear season is open in the area around the area but obviously the illegal disposal and potentially other game violations are being investigated.
Why anyone would do this senseless act is unclear. The conclusions many are jumping to is that a McCain supporter must be behind this act. Of course one could surmise in an area of that the state (rural areas) where McCain appears to be doing better that an Obama supporter could have done this to stir things up. I don’t think laying blame on any group is the way to go and we should wait till the authorities complete their investigation.
Bottom line why anyone would kill a bear cub and dump it is a senseless act stealing from all the citizens of the state. I hope anyone with information on this or any game violation will call;

That is just not right.
Whether you like Obama or not does not give anyone the right to do that. It is senseless and the ones who did it should be punished according to the law.
