What is there to say the world has problems and not all of them can be solved, and priorities are imoprtant, sometimes it takes a revolution.....Sometimes the path is hard..............

You said there were more important things too.

You did say that you would never help a stranger who was in trouble. And you took the term "sensitive" as an offense... :S

Whaling is good. It creates jobs. It sounds fun. Whale probably tastes excellant. Other nations just skirt around zone restrictions. Let's make it totally legal. Hey, if everyone else gets in on this lucrative action, everyone should have a crack at it. Whales are espendable and not important to a lot of people. Ever see this on someones resume: I petioned for the sake of whales? No one will brother anyway. In congress I guarantee if this was brought up, their would be 5 dewy eyed save everything people and everyone else would think" Whaling+campaign donations+Reelection. Slaughter the whales!" and shoot it down like a wounded duck. And what would happen to the precious, precious ecosystem if the blue larded tippycanoe whale became extinct? Jack squat, thats what. 99 percent of all species are gone, who says whales matter?

You just miss understood me on the sensitive topic. And so what if i did'nt want to help a complete stranger, just cause you would and i would'nt does not make me bad. And yes slipknot are Epidemic, unlike most of the stuff you listen to. |
hmmm wouldn't it be nice if we could put certain forum members on Ignore?
*glares at Statikk* |
What? You like whales, I don't. And Greenpeace is a crappy organization that uses dirty tactics and is involved with ecoterrorism. ALF and ELF anyone? Same with PETA.

Gee, thanks for calling me a moron. I see why everyone wants you to be a moderator or master of the world or whatever. It is because you are temperate. If you don't have anything to say except quote me and call me a moron, why are you posting here. Tell me why I should give a shit about the "majestic" whale.

Yeah. Whales never did anything for me but they never did anything TO me. Besides,if everyone hunted them now before the populations were stable their would be no whales, or money creating whaling businesses. I wonder how many whales are left now? I'm guessing not enough to start a competitive business.

Whales are an importent part of the food chain, they are at/near the top of it. If they all go extinct, there will be a population explosion of the food they eat (ie plankton, small fish, etc), which would lead to them consuming all the of their food sources and then the whole chain collapses.
On a related subject and it serves as a good example, in an older topic someone said they were having a major deer problem in their area. Now...wolves and a couple of other preditors normally keep the deer population in check. But guess what? Humans drove out/killed all the deers natural preditors and the deers population exploded. Due to their ignorence, humans now have to cull the deer to keep them from 'eating' them out of house and home themselves. If they hadn't gotten rid of the preditors to begin with...they wouldn't have to! Same thing will happen if the whales go extinct.... And remember...whales reproduce at a much slower rate then fish, lobster and other aquatic life. (same with Sharks BTW) They can't recover their numbers as fast... |

CNN.com posted an article today on whales, it covers the number of whales killed by collisions with ships: http://www.cnn.com/2002/US/04/20/wha....ap/index.html |
Statick, we know you hate whales, so stop ruining this for people who care about things other than them selfves. There is no point in arguing with us it's not like you can make us hate whales as well and it's not like we can make you like them, so stop.

Stat...your the breed of guy that makes me look at guys in general and think 'Ugh...how vile.' Your probably never going to get married with a attitude like that (Unless you marry some...like...ugly, country bumpkin called 'Ursela'). Although i don't like Greenpeace cos it reminds me of that hippy...Swampy. Who was so very vile. I dont like hippies...they dont shave and they look awful...also, they are too fussy.

WHOO-HOO!
To get back on topic... SUCCESS! For the time being, anyway.
Just got this in my email: :

I got that, too. I heaved a sigh of relief as I read it...

Form filled :)

Someone brought up predators. Well, I ask you, what the hell is going to mess with a pod of friggin' whales, the biggest animals on earth. And with the wolves, they don't take a lot of deers and it is not as though they arwe on the verge of extinction. Populations are exploding and seasons on them will soon be opened. In fact not only are wolves and coyotes no longer on the endangered list but their is a movement to take them off the threatened list. So the wolve argument is like a one legged man in an ass kicking contest. Nuke the whales for Jesus.

Oh and don't give money to those eco gestapos, PETA and Greenpeace. They ave hundreds of thousands of dollars to eco terrorists but less than 800 dollars to humane societies. Your money goes to the scum of the earth, eco terrorists and the like, if you give them money.

You really are a dickhead, aren't you?

Damn, Danny beat me to it!!
