Perhaps they should try Notre Dame....

What is it with Japan and Norway killing whales?

What is it with Japan and Norway killing whales?

Just like Southerners killing pigs.

It just so happens that there are a lot more pigs.

Nuke em... the japs that is not the whales.... what part of endangered species do these people not understand? I am assuming at this point that there is no chance of the japanese race becoming endangered because of not being able to kill hump back whales? What kind of a world am I living in? Help!

Are you comparing the intelligence of whales to pigs?

Pigs are smart but whales have language.

It would be interesting to see the brain to body size ratio between whales and pigs.

With all of these submarines sitting around with nothing to do. Why don't we disappear some whaling ships.

There are lots more Japanese left and they won't be missed.

Easy there, chief. It was a joke.

Whales and dolphins - two human friendly sea creatures Japan can't get enough killing of. Their slaughter of dolphins as competition to fishermen is so sad. Now whales they don't need for survival in the 21st century. Sad

The Japanese are always trying to kill all the whales. What is it with that country anyway? Whales of all kinds should be on the protected species list forever.

We should have finished the job in WW II.

Damnnnnnn they are killing My Relatives this bites.

He is still Moby's little squirt!

Larry,
Don't they have to be beached first? I mean technecally to be your relatives?

Fuck Japan for doing this. There is no need to hunt whales in this day and age.

We should have finished the job in WW II.

and the would could get those fuckin mexicans, too...right, chris?

what the fuck is wrong with these people? I hope they all suffer a fatal accident

Such humanity. Such concern for your fellow man

I am losing my concern for my fellow man daily..When my fellow man gives a shit for more than their own personal luxury items and bank account we can talk otherwise eat shit and die.

"Japan says it needs to kill the animals in order to conduct research on their reproductive and feeding patterns."

Wouldn't those habits and patterns be best observed while the whales are living?

"What is it with Japan and Norway killing whales?"

I don't think we have an explanation. So obviously, we need to make up a disease for people who have an uncontrollable urge to kill whales. Then we can send them to therapy and put them on pills.

Problem solved.

Sully, you forgot to sign your post.

Sincerely,

The Pharmaceutical Industry

Japan especially needs to feel the world's power to sanction economically over their rape of the environment - and the dolphin / whale hunt in particular. They feel a few billion not transfered to their car industry and the fishermen will be told to find a new line of work.

Regards,
etc.

I have read that a mature bluefin tuna is now worth over $100,000 in Japan due to their declining numbers.

This means that it is now profitable to hunt the remaining fish with helicopters.

Those spacemen that visited the Sumerians and brought them civilization need to come back and give us a refresher course.

If you're going to make your sleezy racist remark about me at least have the cajones to do it like a real man and use your real username of SILVERIRONIST instead of hiding under some made-up name like SHREDDER where you've only made a few posts. I can't stomach cowards -- particularly racebaiters like you who don't have the guts to post their anti-Mexican comment about me using their real username. You fool no one, coward.

Your full of it, CalC.

I post under one handle and don't make sleazy racist remarks unless I think they may be humorous.

That WWII crack was not even vaguely amusing and I wasn't the author.

Nor was I the author of the "get the Mexicans" response.

I believe we should enforce immigration laws on employers, something the GOP refuses to do.

Oh really? And both Shredder and SilverIronist on the same thread within only a couple hours. Old writing habits are tough to break aren't they?

Jesus, your rules of evidence are pretty damn loose.

If I want to call you a racist fuckhead, I have no problem doing it.

Personally, I don't think you are. I have lived in CA and seen the problems.

Perhaps we disagree on the solutions.

I assure you I am not Shredder.

SilverIronist

I assure you I am not Shredder.

I have nothing to go by but your word, but I've never found you to be untruthful before so I accept what you say. My apology.

Accepted.

Japan Begins First Humpback Hunt in Decades

Just when Quasimodo thought it was safe to exit the belltower.

Doc,
That's humpback, not hunchback. Its like Carol Kane's character in The Muppet Movie...

Kermit: Its a myth, MYTH!
Carol Kane: Yes?

Just kidding, I'm not so dense as to have not picked up the humor. I just can't resist putting in a Muppet or South Park reference.

I can see it now. There he is... Paul Watson witnessing the crowd flailing whale chunks on sticks patriotically in the air as he raises a molotov cocktail in his hand while listening to his brass band playing Kate Connolly's "Sinking Ship Song."

It does not go unappreciated, Unbiased.

You mean what by that?

I and no doubt many others are most interested in your "reasoning."

Silver Ironist,

Sorry you got mixed up in my comment...

Chris,

Didn't like my comment? Tough...I didn't like this comment:

"We should have finished the job in WW II."

My mother was and 11 yr old in Japan in 1945, so I take that kinda shit personally...

Along with Zot, I want to know what you meant by your comment...

BTW, I am not in any way defending the whale hunt; I think it's horrible....
