An even larger crowd of more than 2,000 packed the stadium for a similar event at SeaWorld Orlando, home base of Dawn Brancheau, 40, who died Wednesday after the 12,000-pound Tilikum dragged her into the pool and battered her.
Tilikum has been involved in the deaths of two people, and he's still part of the act.

Exodus 21:28 "If a bull gores a man or a woman to death, the bull must be stoned to death, and its meat must not be eaten. But the owner of the bull will not be held responsible. 29 If, however, the bull has had the habit of goring and the owner has been warned but has not kept it penned up and it kills a man or woman, the bull must be stoned and the owner also must be put to death.
It's not exactly rocket science. An animal that kills a man has to be put down. It's been changing since I was a kid. In those days a dog that mauled a child was put down. Now a dog can rip a person apart and it's given to a good home???
What about genetics? You can breed gentleness and meanness into anything, even insects like bees. To anyone with a brain it makes sense to put down an animal that tries to kill a human. You take the genes out of the pool.
And they're keeping this Orca as a stud. Go figure.
