I need help guys.

[I-Am-Atom's-Sister]

Sorry if this is a bit depressing.. or off topic or whatever.

I am so angry right now. I'm angry at the world and everyone in it. I want to use words that would get me banned forever, but I don't want that.
I need help. I don't know what to do.
An old friend of mine just rejoined a website. She is concerned about animal abuse and copywritten material being stolen, so our interests are similar, and I was glad to have her back.
But then I found a big forum she had made about how we should 'save the elk' and soforth.
I was interested in this, because I am for saving any animal.
But here's the thing... she wasn't blaming hunting or land restrictions or inaddiquite health in the forests.. she was claiming that it was wolves who were causing the decrease in elk population.
I won't post a link because the forum had some bloody images claiming the work of wolves, but they were obviously bullet wounds.
Being an... immensly occupied wolf lover this... snapped me.
I am so tired of pretending that humans are not going to ruin this world. And to think that some people are actually going on to blame other animals for their problems is sick.
I don't know what to do. This isn't exactly a problem I can fix. I'm going to go insane thinking I have to live my whole life with the burden of being human.
Does anyone know what I can do to... I don't know, distract myself a little more? Because that would be great right now.
If I can't stop hating everything I am going to break something; probably my computer. And I would hate that even more.

Again, sorry if this is like, not legal or something.

I would recommend telling her the facts and if not, then just simply let it go...

I'm sure that you are not the only one who knows the truth and if you can even spread the truth, that would help greatly. Not all humans do blame other things, but there are those foolish ones that will. Though, at the end of the day, most people know and will admit that humans are doing damage to populations of animals, smart people at least. She is not a very smart person and I can tell, and I'm sure many others can as well, so don't worry, this horrible rumor will not go far.

Humans have the power to ruin the world, but we also have the power to save it as well.

EDIT: PM me and I can talk about it. I got to go somewhere, but I'll be back in an hour.

@IAAS; There isn't much you can do besides get the facts out there, hope for the best, and live the way that you know wont make you the cause of the world being ruined. Sorry I don't have more to say.

[I-Am-Atom's-Sister]

thanks for the tips 2866; Gotta.
Yes, I just told her it was offencive and ignored her. She claimed that she hated wolves and ignored me back.

[diehard67]

she is just scapegoating on the wolvs, if humans werent over hunting then the wolvs killing the odd elk would not adversly affect the population.

just ignore people like that.

I don't have better tips than those already offered, I-Am-Atom's-Sister. I hope you will feel better.

You're welcome and that is the perfect evidence against her. You could put together a post stating all the facts that are clearly true and point out the problems with her post. Then quote her on what she had said about wolves and then say something around the lines of, "These illusive statements about wolves killing off the population of elks were just made up, rubbish facts created by a child who is attempting to mislead people into believing that wolves were the cause of such a drastic decrease in population. She is conflicting with the obvious in her posts showing many gruesome pictures of dead elks of whom she states were killed by the wolves when it is clear to me, as it should be to many, that these wounds were not inflicted by wolves and their teeth, but humans and their guns. I had contacted her about this topic and she had responded with this: *insert wolf hating claim here* and she has continued down her ignorant path and continues to post about it. Do me a favor my friends, do not fall prey to this girl's deceiving statements."

I think that should get people to not to believe her.

lol 2866. I might as well copy/paste that.
Thanks again guys. Sorry if I sounded like a troll or spammer or something. I really just needed help >.<

[Astro Boy2866]

No problem, just don't forget to put in that claim she made. It didn't seem like you were tolling, you only needed help with something.

Hope I'm not too late to help....

Have you seen this article? It's got good stats, like these ones:

- In two of the 11 study areas, hunters were the number one elk killers.

- Last year, Idaho Fish and Game wanted to kill 40-50 wolves in their Lolo zone because of their perceived effects on the elk population, yet they offered 1,492 elk hunting permits for that same zone.
