Jamison Stone, The Kid Who Killed The Monster Hog Is No Hero
The image of eleven-year old Jamison Stone of Alabama, posing with a 1,051 pound hog that he killed, is a hit on the Internet and on TV.
Â
Jamison has been enjoying his 15-minutes of fame, doing the requisite morning network shows. He has even been guaranteed a cameo in an upcoming movie “The Legend of Hogzilla,” based on the tale of another huge hog killed in Georgia in 2004.
Â
Is the South teeming with monster hogs going hog wild? If you travel to the deep South, make sure you carry a bazooka with you.
Â
The rosy-cheeked Jamison is a hero who deserves his moment in the sun, right?
Â
Wrong! Jamison is not a fearless hunter who deserves praise and recognition. Jamison was chauffeured around a fenced-in hunting ground by his dad ,and he had to shoot the poor pig nine times in a three-hour period before it finally died.
Â
That unfortunate hog was tortured to allow that little brat his precious photo-op.
Â
I’d like to see that fat little pig (Jamison), run around for three hours while he is being chased around by a hog. Better yet, I’d like to see Mike Stone, the kid’s father, wrestle a monster hog and have the spectacle posted on YouTube for our enjoyment.
Â
Mike Stone, the kid’s father has created a Web site, monsterpig.com, featuring many photos of the kid and his trophy pig.
Â
Mike Stone is an idiot, he is placing his child in danger. There are a few extreme animal rights activists who would might do harm to the kid.
Â
I pray nothing bad happens to Jamison, but I also hope his dad stops exploiting the torture and killing of an innocent pig.
