actully a legal act passed by the UN related to whaling allows lethal research in moderation.

please note the company IRC does get permission from the UN and limitations of how many whales they can take

[waswitdat69]

they dont want anything stoped (at least the mastermind behind $ea $hepherd dosent)why eles would they do the bizzar things they.they get just enough support to keep the donations coming from the naive while insuring the thing they fight continues..Paul watsons own words when asked if they target the harp seal hunt(population 9.2 million) for profit while he was greenpeace"oh its definatly about money ,and its definatly because it turns a profit" 1300 monk seals left dont see them fight for them

@DeltaTango45 Doesn't ever make it right. We are killing our oceans.Research my ASS! Hmmm......I wonder if we can do research than make money off the remains. FUCKING EXCUSES!

@Warchief1521 I'm not your buddy, and you need to educate yourself about animals. Unless we don't have the same definition of sentient.

[Warchief1521]

@VeganPua humans are the only sentient beings on the planet, buddy.

[VeganPua]

@Warchief1521 This is the most retarded argument I ever heard. It just show your ignorance about morality. Plants are living things (like viruses and bacteria...) but they do not feel a thing you moron. Are you really that ignornt? Do you really believe killing plants that can't feel a thing is bad but killing sentient animals is ok?? Are really that dumb? Oh and BTW if you really care about plants... don't eat meat it require more plants to produce it than eating a plant-based diet.

[Warchief1521]

@VeganPua so stop killing plant life for your own profit, you hypocritical fuck. Plants are living things too you know.

[VeganPua]

@Warchief1521 Yeah there's something wrong with your logic and good for you I hope it was infected with e-coli and fecal matter like most meat-burger. If you can't see how killing innocent beings from one species and raping children from another isimilarthen you have a serious problem. Of course it's not the same thing you morron, but in both case it cause SUFFERING. And I don't like whales that much.. I just hate dickheads who kill them. I'm against killing and suffering for profits that's all.

[Warchief1521]

@VeganPua There's nothing wrong with my logic. You know what I had for dinner last night? a god damn hamburger. And it was fucking delicious. Killing whales and raping little children are two entirely different things, don't try to equate them. If you love your little animals and your god damn planet why don't you go swim with them, I'm sure they'd be happy to have you.

[VeganPua]

@Warchief1521 Yeah right and people all around the world get killed, women and children get raped and molested. I guess that's none of my business too so that mean nobody should try to stop it right? Well if we follow your logic nobody should try to stop the wrongs other people are doing. I bet if you saw a child getting raped you would just watch and tell youself it's just the other person choice. What a nice attitude to think it's ok to let people kill innocents being and destroy our planet...

[Warchief1521]

@VeganPua Just because humans are carnivorous does not give us instinctual tendencies to chase animals because we need meat. The word carnivore means meat eater, and I am a meat eater. I also eat plants and I eat fish too. It is none of your business what other people eat. Deal with it. There are cannibalistic tribes that exist today, and you don't see sea shepard types telling them not to eat their own people. Why? cuz they'd get fucked up. The reason people pick on Japan is because of cowardic

[VeganPua]

@Warchief1521 And where are all our carnivores instinct huh? People don't wake up in the middle of the night chasing animals because they're hungry. If you don't get hungry when you see a dog, cat, mice, hamster, bird, giraffe, etc... then you're not a natural carnivore, if you eat them it just make you a hypocrite.

If you want to prove me wrong then post a video of yourself killing an animal with your barehand and eating it raw like a real carnivore or omnivore would.
