since we can and do, does this mean I have permission to shoot Tracey Emin?
It'll be a damn sight more satisfying than killing an elephant (and would get more support). At least an elephant produces something worthy, even if it is just 100lb of dung a day.

I only shoot humans that are not producing art.

In no time at all it will be cutting Damien Hirst in two and preserving him in formaldehyde.
