Baby seal hunt starts tomorrow

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but I thought I would offer this petition for anyone who would like to sign it. The slaughter of baby seals has been going on off the coast of Canada for decades, and personally I think it is appalling. It is like 101 Dalmatians with a disgusting ending.

Sorry, I don't know how to make it a "clicky"



It's all Jimmy Buffet's fault.

there are 2 quotes in the bible I like regarding this subject.
"..God said unto them....have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth"
and:
"judge not lest ye be judged"
-
If you are a beliver you should realize that god gave us everything on the earth to do with as we please and it is not your place to judge other men it will be up to god to pass judgement... or are you the type who picks and chooses what to belive and only belives when it is convenient?
It is clear the population of the seals is not in danger so the government allows the kills to control the population, the coats provide people income to live on and provide for their families, and Im sure the gov. makes taxes off it too. Is there a better way to kill them? possibly but how do you do it and not ruin the coat?
I have no problem with this and I will not sign your petition.

I like to start my day off with a little Ray of Soulshine™!!

I'm sick of all the Canadians bashing the Americans. Lets' bash 'em back awhile. Preferably with a club!



Don't you dare do that or we will....um..well...uh..we will like ..um, we'll whine and complain about it and make Anti-American remarks.

Cheers,

My biggest handicap is that sometimes the hole in the front of my head operates a tad bit faster than the grey matter contained within.

Well, it's easy for those at the top of the food chain (humans), once we'd developed to ability to preserve the written word, to write down that our species in particular has ultimate dominion over all the other species and resources of the planet; and oh, by the way, it's because God said so.

Those in power make the rules. They often claim Divine justification. Laws deeming women as their husbands' chattel and members of other races to be slaves are other examples that come to mind.

This inhumane activity brings your country to the level of China. Funny thing is recently I read that the Chinese were making cosmetics with the skin of executed criminals. I did not find it at all surprising that a country eating dogs and performing forced abortions would use human skin for cosmetics. Please have some decency and put a stop to this.

Glad to hear from another person that doesn't hunt or eat meat. Do they actually let you live in Texas :P

If the US were doing this, the usual suspects here would fill the forum with passionate expressions of righteous anger, bashing away relentlessly like they do everything else US related.

But since it's China doing it, those same posters just sit back in uncaring silence -- I guess there's just no fun to be had bashing China. [:/]

I agree. Though the rest of the world needs China at this point. So, nobody can force them to do anything, cause they really have no recourse. Just like the whole world really doesn't do anything about Gitmo. Cause there is no recourse at this point. Countries as well as large corporations tend to only fight fights they think they can win.

I do live in Texas. As for eating meat, I eat what is correctly part of the food chain. I have been through this before. Deer, cows, pigs eat grass, they can extract the chlorophyll from the plants. Plants make their own by photosynthesis. Eating dog, bears or another carnivore is not natural.
Do I hunt? Hell no!!! If I was starving and had not other choice I would. But to just go out and shoot an animal for pleasure one has to be an asshole.

Interesting definition of the food chain. You only eat things that only eat plants.
Seals eat fish. Have you ever eaten fish or anything that eats fish?

I am so pleased to see this said by someone who isn't a liberal. Seriously.
Just when you think you have someone pegged as a total Neanderthal, he goes and says something humane and decent.
Now, let's complete the circle. Admit you really admire Clinton. And not just any Clinton - Hillary.

You've never eaten tuna? Swordfish? Shark? Salmon? Most dogs eat a lot less meat than those fish do. We're offended when people eat dogs; Indians are offended when we eat cows. Nothing new there.
