He sounds far more informed and rational about the subject than you do.
Whale killing in Denmark

As above...
Where do you guys who scream ''awww poor things'' draw the line ? Are you vegetarians ?
Weren't we vegetarians for a time before we started hunting?

Without seeing any images or reading about this in the slightest, I do get that impression. Particularly the quote about the baby like scream, emotion over brain right there.
Move along.
Hurding, brutalising and finally killing whilst the next one waits in blood and guts of their family is hardly comparative to how we slaughter our farmed animals so it's completely unfair to justify this by saying we do the same.
You cannot say that this is the acceptable manner in which to hunt for whale meat. it is clearly a barbaric throw back to ancient tradition that should be wrapped up.

Is it that different to how we fish?
Some people on here never get it do they. I am a vegan. I will never be able to stop this type of thing. With that in mind i wish it was done more humanly, that also extends to any other animal killing for food.
I am sure if i wanted too eat humans and stuck hooks in people like they do you would soon say how barbaric it was. People tend to have less feelings when it comes to animals. Well I have less feelings when it comes to humans. Horses for courses

No we don't, your loss, now I'll go and enjoy my chicken sandwitch while sitting on my comfy leather chair.
That says a lot about yourself.
I will never understand how a person cares more about some other race compared to his own.
As for ruthless killing, animals are guilty of it too, see how Komodo dragons hunt... Or Dolfins how they drive fish together surrounding them with bubbles and then eating them as they jump for their life, just as we do with the whales. Or seagulls how they poke whales on their back when they come up for air and eat them slowly but surely.
We are at the top of the food chain as said above...

You are right it does say a lot about me. The difference is that they can humanely kill these creatures yet choose not too in some circumstances. I would love to see it stop altogether, never going to happen so at least do it humanely.
Oh and the ridiculous attempt at bothering me by saying you will enjoy your chicken sandwich sitting on your leather chair just highlights how childish you are.
I can never understand how killing animals like this does not bother you. So there you go.

Take a read. An hour for some whales to die, very humane. Cant imagine you would think the same on the recieving end.
No, I just gave you a couple examples how they don't. Do you really think animals care about a ''humane death'', they just want to kill the other animal in the most efficient way or easiest way possible.
What I meant with ''Well I have less feelings when it comes to humans'' and that saying a lot about you, is how on earth can you like animals more than other humans ? What about your family, your friends, your GF/wife ? I would certainly pick saving 10 people over 100.000 random animals in whatever hypothetical situation.
That was a joke
.I never said it doesn't completely bother me, I'm just saying it doesn't bother me enough to even remotely understand how someone could be vegan. It's survival of the fittest...
ps.
Where do you draw the line for your animal love ? Mosqito's ? Insects ? Vermin ( rats, termites, hornets, etc) ? Mammals ? ''cute'' animals ?

Sad but cant see anything being done about it...its not like they are breaking any laws are they??
Saying that, this bit stood out for me somewhat
So i say let them carry on...their stupidity and ignorance will cost them dear in the long run.

Lol some people on here just so funny. Comparing how animals kill to how humans do.
Of course I care for my family and girlfriend. however stick a stranger in front of me and I do not care about them remotely. We can talk about this all day to be honest. It will get us no where. So It is best if we agree to disagree on how we feel about humans and animals.
