Don't need your business Athletic clothing firm Under Armour cuts ties with wife of U.S. hunter who speared a bear in Alberta

[unknown]

'The method used to harvest this animal was reckless and we do
not condone it,' company says

Athletic clothing manufacturer Under Armour has cut ties with
Sarah Bowmar, the wife of an American hunter shown in a
controversial YouTube video killing a bear with a spear in
northern Alberta.

"Under Armour is ending its relationship with Sarah Bowmar, the
wife of Josh Bowmar," the Baltimore, Maryland-based corporation
said in a statement provided to CBC and other media outlets.
"The method used to harvest this animal was reckless and we do
not condone it.

"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."

In January, Under Armour named "revered fitness guru and
bowhunter Sarah Bowmar" as one of the stars of its first-ever
women's hunting campaign, designed "to educate, engage and
empower female hunters, while celebrating the physical and inner
fortitude of those women that bravely pursue their own path."

But this week following news reports about the video showing
Josh Bowmar spearing a bear, the Alberta government condemned
the practice of hunting with spears. The government has said it
will introduce a ban on spear hunting this fall, and has
directed fish and wildlife officers to investigate to see if
charges are warranted under existing laws.

Sarah Bowmar is seen in the video after her husband — a former
javelin thrower — uses a spear to kill a black bear in a forest.
The hunt is believed to have taken place northeast of Edmonton
in May.

The video was viewed more than 200,000 times before being taken
down.

A petition circulated online calling for Under Armour to drop
its sponsorship of the couple's fitness and nutrition business,
Bowmar Fitness Inc. The petition said it is "disgraceful for a
company like Under Armour" to be associated with the business.

Sarah Bowmar has faced a barrage of criticism on social media
for her involvement in the hunt. But there has also been an
outpouring of support, particularly from within the U.S. hunting
community.

Sarah Bowmar, MBA @sarahbowmar_
If it wasn't for spear hunters, your family wouldn't be alive

Under Armour has also earned the wrath of many U.S. hunters, who
have taken to the internet to call the company out on what they
see as its hypocrisy.

be buying or wearing @UAHUNT gear anymore since you now support
anti hunters

Hunting with guns 600 years
Hunting with spears 100,000+ years
So the Alberta government is now setting out to condemn the
whole of human history AND prehistory.
When presented with the resulting quandary, Alberta officials commented,
"Eh, sorry."

Please explain how a ban on hunting with spears, which gives
an animal more of a sporting chance than guns, is moving on.

Donald J. Trump: The asteroid destined to destroy
a party of dinosaurs. - Samantha Bee

Trump has written a lot of books about business, but they all
seem to end in Chapter 11. - Hillary Clinton

S. E. Cupp has characterized Trump as wearing the Republican party
like a rented tuxedo. When the prom is over, it's going to end up on
the floor with the liquor stains and cigarette butts.

So if you are thinking of voting for Donald Trump,
the charismatic guy promising to ‘Make America Great
Again,’ stop and take a moment to imagine how you
would feel if you just met a guy named Donald Drumpf:
a litigious, serial liar with a string of broken business
ventures and the support of a former Klan leader who
he can’t decide whether or not to condemn.
Would you think he would make a good president,
or is the spell now somewhat broken? - John Oliver

There is an increased chance of ending up with a wounded animal or one dying
slowly. When hunting I want an effective means to efficiently dispatch the
animal. That is why armies moved on from spears

Is there really? Can you site a scientific study that has studied data
on the subject and reached that conclusion? Or perhaps a phone survey?

I'll take your word for that. It is not evidence of your claim.

I based it on common sense so that obviously doesn't work for you
