there's always something else to do. nobody absolutely has to poach whales.

The Japanese economy is in the toilet; there is NOT always something else to do. What the Japanese do may be repugnant, but it is lawful; they are not poaching anything.
 
nobody is forcing them to kill whales. besides, last i checked there were millions of japanese on the planet. not so whales. and who's to say which life is more valuable? i certainly wouldn't wish for any of the whalers themselves to be hurt. they know the risks they are taking when they head off to kill whales every year. none of this is new.

besides isn't commercial whaling illegal?
.... but yet you support the illegal activities that risk killing someone ???

good.. at least someone is doing something. what has anyone else done that has actually made any amount of difference in the whale slaughters??
 
not everyone agrees with this.

Not everyone is aware of the facts.

besides, last i checked there were millions of japanese on the planet. not so whales.

When did you last check the number of whales on the planet?
 
The horrifying thing that comes through in many of these threads are the number of armchair enthusiasts who support harming, or even killing human beings based upon said armchair enthusiast's Finding Nemo-like understanding of world events.

It is strongly suggested that said armchair enthusiasts who believe that humans are a blight upon the planet begin the healing process by removing themselves from the equation.
