Can someone please go and hunt Melissa Bachman? Just for fun, you know, because life isn't sacred at all or anything.

@MelissaBachman I would pay money to see a lion tear you apart slowly. Would love to see you suffer.
— Haydn Gawronsky (@gawronsky) November 14, 2013Elan Burman, a Cape Town, resident took to Change.org to start a petition, asking the Government of the Republic of South Africa to deny Bachman future entry into the country. “Melissa Bachman has made a career out of hunting wildlife, for pure sport. Her antics are captured extensively on her personal website,” Burman writes in the petition, “She is an absolute contradiction to the culture of conservation, this country prides itself on. Her latest Facebook post features her with a lion she has just executed and murdered in our country. As tax payers we demand she no longer be granted access to this country and its natural resources.”The petition has already seen 239,796 people sign up for it with 60,204 needed for it to reach its goal.
