Under Armour drops deal with hunter who filmed husband using a 7-foot spear to brutally kill a bear 1

Under Armour has ended its endorsement deal with hunter and fitness star Sarah Bowmar after she posted a video to YouTube of her husband, Josh, brutally killing a black bear with a 7-foot homemade spear, The Daily Mirror first reported.
The 13-minute footage was posted to the couple's Bowmar Bowhunting channel in June and was captured in Alberta, Canada, using a GoPro camera, which was attached to the weapon.
Both Bowmars — who own the Bowmar Fitness supplement and online coaching company — are wearing Under Armour clothing in the video, which was viewed more than 200,000 times but has now been removed. (The video, which is very graphic, can be viewed on The Daily Mirror.)
Commenters on social media were particularly perturbed by the joy Josh appeared to show when killing the animal — cheering to the camera and fist-bumping his wife. Animal-rights activists expressed concerns the bear could have taken up to 20 hours to die, The Daily Mirror reported.
The video sparked a petition, signed by more than 4,000 people, calling on Under Armour to drop its sponsorship of the Bowmars.
Only Sarah is an Under Armour-sponsored athlete. She was signed by the Baltimore-based sports apparel firm to star in its first women's hunting campaign, "The Women of Will," in January this year.
The petition reads: "Regardless of their impressive fitness techniques, Under Armour needs to drop their sponsorship of Bowmar Fitness immediately. In video after video, these two showed a sickening pleasure in the suffering and death of the animals they hunted (usually for fun). It is disgraceful for a company like Under Armour to be associated with Josh Bowmar and his fitness and hunting businesses."
Under Armour confirmed it had dropped its deal with Sarah on Friday.
"The method used to harvest this animal was reckless and we do not condone it," an Under Armour spokesperson told Business Insider. "Under Armour is dedicated to the hunting community and supports hunting that is conducted in compliance with applicable federal, state and local laws and hunting practices that ensure a responsible and safe harvest of the animal."
Sarah expressed her confusion on Twitter about Under Armour severing ties with her:
She retweeted messages of support from her fans.
The Guardian reported on Tuesday that the Alberta environment ministry described the Bowmar video as "archaic" and "unacceptable," and that a ban on spear hunting is being introduced this fall.
"In the meantime, we have asked Fish and Wildlife officers to investigate this incident to determine if charges are warranted under existing laws," a ministry spokesperson said in a statement.

Thoughts? I hope they find some way to charge these two for their sickening behavior.
We should have a system for banishing people like these to the wilderness to fend for themselves...

Fucking nice on him. Ran into a bear last week. My first step is to run. That bear could've easily closed the 20 foot gap in the time it took me to even really even realize it's there.
I wouldn't really choose to challenge a bear as there bad ass predators plus the bear was just chillin doing bear stuff eatin berries. I'm roaming around the woods for no particular reason. Buddy just wanted to eat his berries.

Yet, they have no problem if they kill bear with a bow. I don't really see a difference.

It's dumb to think about. Predators like cats and bears own us. This story would only be interesting if it was man kills bear with Kung fu. Of course it was a 7 foot spear. We make things that kill things very well. Why we're on top.
That means he was 8 feet from a fucking bear. That's we need to go now. And I already have one step on them. I don't have to outrun the bear just you. That's where my flight or fight response kicked into. There in the top of the baddass predator food chain. Behind large cats.

I hope their ban on spear hunting don't apply to spear fishing, that shit is fun as fuck
But otherwise, yeah, if you have the means to kill something humanely, like with a bow(I know guns are banned in Canada, eh) you should

Hunting is fun, hunting a bear with a spear is cool. You fucking sad hippie types are impossible to please. No one can hunt with a gun because it's not fair to the animals and guns are scary. Can't hunt with a spear because it's mean and the animal gets hurt.
Suck my dick motherfucker. Fucking stupid to bitch about hunting when there's all sorts of actual atrocities going on against critically endangered animals around the world.

What kind of bear was it? Not all bears are super aggressive, the biggest dangers are being around mothers and cubs probably.
So its nice on him for attacking a bear with a spear and essentially torturing it then leaving ti to bleed out for nearly a day? 
I wonder why bears feel the need to defend themselves around people...

Touche, how about we send them on boats to Antarctica then. I doubt they would make it long enough to kill any penguins  Quote:

I have no problem with hunting... Videotaping yourself brutalizing an animal with a spear and then not finish it off is not "hunting" its torture...

Try not to actually think about what you say, just get really angry and shitpost and never think about how stupid your ideas of poetic justice end up sounding. You're now well on your way to being a Pub Shaman. Next up includes tripping balls and talking to god, and preaching the miraculous restorative properties of Cannabis.
