I don't get how it matters if she killed a deer or an elk?

What kind of sick lunatic gives a gun to a 14 y/o???
Why would you proudly kill an animal? Why take of photo of this shameful act?

How can you "kill a dead ELK!!" [sic] (I mean it's already dead)

"Abby had just completed a hunter education class and said "I had just completed my hunting safety class and i really wanted to go out there and kill something. I was so excited"."
Don't they teach what to kill and what not to kill, and to not go out when you're excited just to kill something? Doesn't sound particularly safe to me.

"Everyone is a keyboard hero these days."
Better to be a keyboard hero than an elk killer.

"75% of people would've said nothing at all and left the elk."
99.9% of people would not have shot the elk.

"Liberals are really spineless people who don't understand the thrill of a hunt."
I don't understand the thrill of slaughtering a helpless animal with a fire arm, and I'm not even a liberal.

"yes, i was an excited Dad. My daughter got her first kill and it won't be the last"
I'll be proud when my daughter achieves something, not when it murders an animal with a fire arm.

"He expresses his distaste for "adults" using social media to voice their "hatred towards a child""
Pretty sure those "adults" are hating the act of killing the elk, and the "adult" that gave his 14 y/o daughter a fire arm and instructions to go out and kill something, not the young child.

Do you think a Deer and an Elk look the same?
From a distance, sure, it looks like (and is) a big deer. Wouldn't shoot it when in doubt, if at all.
