I don't understand how someone who considers themselves a morally upright person thinks that God gave us the right to kill any creature for whatever reason we want. Just because God gave us the power doesn't mean we should use it. The Japanese kill so many whales they try to give away the meat. Japanese no longer consume whale in large quantities and the fishing industry in Japan tries to convince the schools to pay for the meat.

If we say .2%, the Japanese would find a way to cheat. It's what they do.
It was funny how on last week's episode, they had no idea how to deal with the Jap's new tactics. I'd send out the small boats and have them run interference on the kills ships that are persuing the whales or have them try and screw up the transfer process. Try and get some acid right on the dead whale while they are transferring it. Or why not use the helicopter to drop the acid onto the ship's decks? You'd have to get pretty low, but that would work as well. Suck it up and adapt. Geez.Wisconsin Hockey: 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11 WE WANT MORE!

Re: Whale Wars
Originally posted by Roy82 View PostI agree that "can" and "should" are two very different things. But the Japanese have their own gods and other beliefs and so I am not sure how this argument even applies to them.
Shintoism is a religion with respect for nature. Buddhism is a religion with respect for life.
So let's not bring God into this. The Japanese aren't following God on this one. It's not their religious belief. It's the same cultural ego that spurns them forward that their culture is the best culture and the right culture and they should do whatever they want despite what international law says.
Whatever the rest of the world says about us in Iraq for international law violations, Europe sticks their finger in the air to overfish and break international law that way, and Japan does the same with whaling.
It's just annoying because they're such hypocrites. Apparently them breaking international law is A-OK.

It also seems that they have self-imposed a rule that they must hand throw the acid. Otherwise why not some sort of launcher to increase the range and accuracy?
They are trying to adapt. They are also trying not to cause injury to themselves and the whalers. It's easy to criticize from our living rooms. What would you have them do?
