AA Gill is an asshole

Animal welfare groups voiced outrage today after the restaurant critic AA Gill said he shot a baboon on safari 'to get a sense of what it would be like to kill someone'.
In a Sunday Times column, Gill recounted in detail how he shot the creature from 250 yards while hunting in 'a truck full of guns and other blokes' in Tanzania. He said he felt the urge to be 'a recreational primate killer' before shooting the animal through the lung.
