  • @eurekapoet you mean asians? proves how racist you are

  • fucking loosers

  • 2/3 of the earth's surface is covered by the sea, human beings hardly even occupy 1/10 of all the land, and may be, may be 1/10 of the human beings are eating sushi all the time, you think you can wipe out an entire species by having sushi? You think too highly of man kind. At least, hoe the hell can anyone can have the slightest idea of how many tuna are out there?

  • All japanese seafood is banned because of the FUKUSHIMA radionucliides contamination.

  • @AkinaTheKitty lol deliberate retarderness in order to atemp to annoy me which you failed to do so

  • @280az Tasty fishy ^^ Tasty Tuna blue fin!

  • It is disappointing to see people cheering the rejection of a ban that would preserve a threatened species. When all the stocks of tuna are over-fished for sushi, there won't be viable market for the fish and the consumers (like the ones above) will suffer. It is short sighted thinking that threatens the planet and the people inhabiting it.

  • @NoNoSpice Europeans stop eating tuna? Europeans eat almost no tuna. I have never seen tuna on a menu in Europe. In fact, 90% of the Europe's entire tuna catch goes straight to Japan - and you can triple check that figure if you don't believe me. Now there are hardly any tuna left in European waters, and mediterranean tuna will soon be extinct within a couple of years. Thanks for that.

  • @NoNoSpice do u retarded japs realize that japs consume 80% of all blue fin tuna u greedy little yellow fuck. and oh!! at this rate blue fin tuna will be extincted by 2012 so u can either enjoy 2 more years of tuna and then be indefinetly out of bussiness or accept the ban and enjoy more generations of blue fin tuna , u use ur culture to cover up ur disgusting greed u japs , FUCK U JAPAN

  • It's not about appetities, it's simply about greed...corporate greed.
