Whale Wars, anybody watch
 

i watch it from time to time, thought the peeps had a good "cause" but were just stupid people.

but then the last episode they showed a whale getting speared, then shot/killed, then butchered up.........

they killed 3-4 in a few hours


man, that was eye opening. and i knew the process but to watch it happen.

not as bad as the dude's beating the baby seals w/ bats. but they did kill a lil whale.....sad.

Um, what did you think they did with the whales?

My son watches every episode so I've seen a few of them. I don't think I'd risk my life for a whale.

I watch it and think it's hilarious.

I think the people are stupid and probably deserve to have their boat sunk for ramming ships. If you want to play, you have to be willing to pay. I could care less about the whales or whaling. I would slaughter an animal, bleed it, cut it up into edible portions, cook it, and then eat it if butcher shops didn't do it for me. The only time I wouldn't want hunting is if you were doing it to the point of extinction. Japan isn't doing that, they are specifically targeting a species that isn't on the verge of extinction and they also quota hunt so the population isn't effected, but facts ruin the point of the show. Their lethal sampling of whales also helps the fish stock in the ocean.

facts? i dunno, link?

I'll give you whales, but they're definitely fucking up the shark population.

Shark fins are NOT going to make your little asian dicks bigger. Just keep making lots of money so you don't have to worry about it.. (Japanese, not you trip).

Quota at 850, they are only getting a little over 500 with a population of over 500000.

:lol: There isn't a TV show about sharks yet. I would watch the nutzo's fight shark hunters too.

I should record my husband's commentary while watching that show... it makes it all that much better :rofl: The lack of experience on their "sailors" has me surprised that they haven't completely sunk yet. Green Peace won't even claim these fools. Sure makes for good TV though. :panic:

This is another of those rare topics where we are in complete agreement, Trip. The Japanese are not breaking any laws but these goof balls keep attacking them. It's ridiculous. I wonder if the Japanese whalers are interested in hiring someone who is will to "shoot" back? I wish just once that they'd attack one of these ships and you heard a loud *bang* and see a hole magically appear in their hull!:lol:

As far as how sad it is to see a whale butchered... well, I doubt that it's any more gruesome than the fate of the cow that sacrificed his life so I could eat at Checkers a minute ago.:lol:

Personally, I'd love to see a bunch of kooks go jump in the water to stop people from hunting sharks!
