Thread Name: BS: Troy Gentry Guilty in Tame Bear Killing
Subject: BS: Troy Gentry Guilty in Tame Bear Killing
Guilty Plea made by Troy Gentry of Montgomery Gentry

All-American He-Man and Hero Troy Gentry of the Pop-Country duo Montgomery Gentry has just pleaded guilty to falsely tagging a tame bear which he purchased and killed in the seller's 3 acre pen in Minnesota. He agreed with the seller to have the kill filmed, and then tag the bear as killed in the wild as his hunting permit required.The bear, named "Cubby", had been raised on the seller's property. The valiant Gentry killed the bear with a high-powered bow and arrow from a treestand safely out of the bear's reach. An electric fence prevented the bear's escape.

In my view, a fine ain't enough for this jackass. Why not put him in a closed pen with a hungry grizzly?
