The Mane Event

Folks on Yelp are posting scathing "reviews" of Dr. Walter Palmer, the Minnesota dentist who I think it's safe to assume now really, really regrets his decision to go Zimbabwe and hunt down a lion. He wanted to mount its head on his wall and now much of America is crying for Dr. Palmer's head to be mounted on a wall somewhere.

Yelp occasionally deletes a batch of these "reviews" but they apparently can't delete as fast as Dr. Palmer's detractors can report. Here's a typical one that's up at the moment…

I needed a tooth extracted, so Dr. Palmer shot me in the neck with a crossbow, chased and tracked me for 40 hours, and (once I collapsed from pain and exhaustion) removed my entire head and skinned me.

Best part, they accept my insurance!!

I dunno if Dr. Palmer can or will be prosecuted in this matter but it looks like at the least, his dental practice will suffer and maybe end, and that he'll have to go through life with a lot of people thinking he is a horrible, horrible human being. If the least is all that happens, I for one will not think he went unpunished.
