japan announced

[transam]

today that they are to resume Whaling

There whaling fleet has already left port . Imho they should be stopped by force if neccesary

board the ships and impound them either that or give the crew an hour to take to there life boats before they are sunk.

Or the crew can go down with the ship I give not a jot

What's the difference between hunting whales for food as opposed to any other living creature?

may be there isnt ??

but I like Whales and they should not be hunted I will put the killing of whales in the same category as poaching Elephants and Rhinos
killing tigers ect for there skins some coutries have a shoot on sight policy for these poachers the same criteria should be applied to whaling fleets sink on sight

Because some of the species that Japan will hunt are at risk of endangerment and their numbers already low.

but I like Whales and they should not be hunted

But that's not really a rational argument though...

I quite like horses...

But they taste much better than whale!

But if it is sustainable hunting, you have no objection?

I'm a lifelong vegetarian who hates the meat industry, so many many objections. But yes, I'd rather not see more animals become extinct because of mankind and I think that has to be the biggest concern at the moment.

If you eat Whale meat u should be deemed to be not fit and proper to reside in the UK and thrown out the country

Don't have to go that far. We have some in the freezer. Foal is particularly tasty, but very expensive

But fox hunting just for sport still continues in the UK despite the 'law' saying otherwise

'Enjoy' it while it lasts.

You'll be eating insects instead....

And it's fine to have your opinion on meat eating...

But as a meat eater, if it is sustainable, I see no reason that one particular animal is any different to another...

People from different areas have different tastes, so getting upset about whales seems illogical to me when we eat animals in the UK which is frowned upon elsewhere...

Had a witchetty grub once - wasn't overly impressed!

It's not really sustainable though, not without harming so much of the planet, let alone the animals.

Whales are intelligent, beautiful and majestic. Just because you don't care what you eat, not everyone thinks the same and think more emotionally. There's nothing wrong with that and nobody should have to apologise for it.
