So the bear was already dead and rather than miss his flight he decided to dump it somewhere that other people would have to deal with it? I get that it isn't the right thing to do, but this is rather minor in the grand scheme of things that messed up politicians do. I know people love to hate on anyone that they think takes votes away from Democrats. I know Biden is no longer running but I can give you a list of things Biden did that is way more awkward than this and no one here would have said a thing. Heck, they would have been calling people fascist for pointing them out.
DUMPING A DEAD BABY BEAR SOMEWHERE IS NOT NORMAL.
Do you honestly think this is no big deal behavior? This shit is weird af, not normal "I'm gonna miss my flight" shit???
Have you ever hit an animal? I never said it was normal. I said it was already dead and that there are far bigger issues to worry about. Is it weird that Biden is okay giving Israel more weapons being used to slaughter children?
Why are you talking about Biden?
He could have called someone..
Or not scavenged a dead bear to begin with.
He's supposed to be a big environmentalist. That's one of the ways he's selling himself.
I would suggest this is not the way for an environmentalist to behave.
Sure, I'll bite. Name even one things that Biden has ever done that is more awkward than leaving a dead bear in central park.
Sending weapons to a country using them to kill tens of thousands of women & children.
Bro, it would be one thing if he hit the bear and just left it there. Accidents happen. Heck, I could even understand talking the body with him, especially if he intended to make use of it's skin/meat (waste not, and all that). But the point where I draw the line is when he decided that his not-drunken actions have inconvenienced him and he irresponsibly dumped the bear in central park, rather than taking it somewhere to be disposed of properly. Say nothing of the attempt to stage it as a bike accident as a joke. True psychopath behavior right there.
