..for now tales of Jimmy John’s violent exploits are limited to using his (tax-dwindled) funds to live out fantasies of stalking, predation, and slaughter in exotic locales.

Jimmy, I’ll finance your next trip if you think you’re man enough to do it bare-handed.

p.s. Your sandwiches are shit.

An update based on my thoughts in communicating with a few commenters:

Thank you to all who have read, forwarded, and provided insightful commentary or information-and this would include an invitation to and preemptive thanks for anyone who can provide a legitimate defense beyond, “Who cares?”  I think it’s immediately apparent that a lot of people care.

Also, a special tip of the hat to Jonathon Childers, who alerted SP to these photos.

I fully appreciate skepticism and the withholding of support for the targeting and criticism of another human until reason and sense dictate otherwise.  I believe the photos do dictate such responses, though context and additional information are always warranted.

I could have written a longer, investigative piece, and tied in trophy hunting with the ills of our civilization, but I chose not to.  Positive and negative consequences follow.  One of the positives is that, in deferring from framing the discussion analytically, readers have felt inclined to weigh in on important subjects like economic models, animal cruelty, debased human behavior abroad and on-site (if I want to feel apocalyptic I go read internet comment threads), and the need to find constructive solutions.

  1. I think the gentleman who wrote this piece hits the nail squarely on the head – it’s where to draw the line. We as humans seem to think, or have been allowed to, that we have absolutely no restrictions or moderations on our behavior at all. That’s the difference between ‘ordinary’ hunting, and this kind of unrestrained trophy killing of endangered wildlife. Seriously, what can a person get out of trophy hunting?

  2. Glad to see Jimmy John is so community-minded. Thanks for the head’s-up. There’s one of his stores a few blocks from where I live. I have never entered, and after reading this, I never will. He looks rather plump. I hope he’s been continuing to eat lots of meat since 2011 when the photos were taken and that the globules of fat continue to lodge where they shouldn’t. Big surprises ahead, Jimmy J! Might even be like the proverbial gunshot as your heart gasps like a wounded animal and gives out. Sick bastard.

  3. trophy killer, its just wrong , does this make you feel like a big man?. its just wrong ……….you only kill what you eat that’s nature that’s the law of the land

  4. “Serial Killers” don’t stop until someone (or something )stops them and they like to pose with their victims. They have no sense of morality, only self-entitlement. What do you think they will do to satisfy their bloodlust when they run out of wildlife ? .

  5. Thank goodness I cannot stand their food anyway. Sloppy service, lousy food. Easy to boycott them. They are just another name in fast food anyway. Pay the employees crap, serve crap food, get big money for your hobbies of killing endangered animals and stuffing your own face. May he rest in peace when he finally kicks the bucket himself and the world will rest a bit easier too.
