BTW*2... was it the female DM?
If killing a fish makes you feel better, do it. Just don't be a hazard to yourself or others. Sooner or later, there's going to be some serious injuries from these well intentioned but futile efforts.
It was too late to stop when the first clutch hatched from the first breeding pair.
Drug dealers don't reproduce as fast as fish nor are they as numerous. You still can't get them all by killing them off.
That’s cool. But why single out lionfish? Lets throw rocks and sticks at all those sparrows, pigeons and starlings. Lets go down to Keys and screw few heads from some Iguanas. And what about all that crab grass on my backyard?

Ahhhh yes, the kneejerk reactions of the myopic treehugger. Would you feel better if we let lionfish and drug dealers run rampant?
Hardly a tree hugger. I just see both of your suggested solutions as risky activities that do nothing to solve the problem.
If every diver took a Lion Fish on every dive, they still wouldn't put a serious dent in the population.
And what scientific study do you base this statement on? Or did you, as I suspect, pull this statement out of your :mooner:?
