93. Your arrogant justification for the continued unnecesary slaughter of whales..
Is breathtaking. I don't give a flying fuck whether hunting whales is considered immoral in other cultures or not. And it makes no difference to me in that sense, whether they are considered endangered or not. It is immoral...period...

Whale can never, even at a peak harvest, provide a significant portion of the diet of the vast majority of countries where it is practiced...it is simply unnecessary to hunt them in order to provide sustenance...and therefore should stop...if there is overpopulation of a species, the conditions that is reducing their food supply needs to be addressed...slaughtering whales is not a solution to that problem...

Personally I do not eat meat so your relativistic arguments will not work on me...

I am equally opposed to the unsustainable factory farming that takes place ...it is cruel, unhealthy for humans, and bad for the environment...

Feel free to respond if you wish...this will be my last post on the subject as I believe I have made my position clear...and I am leaving for the beach...where I will enjoy a meat free weekend frolicking in the waves...and watching whales...
