On the Spot: What do you think about the recent capture of a 12-foot shark near Pensacola Beach? By Franklin Hayes
"I'm glad I wasn't swimming out there. I would hope they used good judgment when they killed it. There are other sharks out there. That's not going to put an end to the sharks." -Jack Booking Gulf Breeze
They [sharks] have a right out there too. I just returned from Gulf Shores and I saw people on inflatable things way out in the gulf. They have no business being way out there. People should use common sense on things like that. -Carlos Shannon Pensacola
"That's good. Shark huggers can go hug a shark and see what happens. If they like it they can go let their kid pet it. It's absurd to let that thing go. I understand tree hugging, but come on. -Brian Rawson Tulsa, Okla.
"It's good that it's gone. We (my family and I) swim and I fish out there at the beach. I think it could be a danger to the public. -Dan Knaul Gulf Breeze
