I'm not a cop, and i believe their stated intention is to harvest the fur growing on those seals, not beat them to death for the fun of it. Do the consequences still matter, if you've already decided that the action is worthwhile?

They are obviously not bothering to find another way to harvest the seals.

I think you mean, you hate the seal hunt. Guess what? Lots of other people do, too. But lots of other people also reap a benefit from it, so it is not going to go away, anytime soon. Yup, the pictures of blood spattered snow and animals can be pretty revolting. So don't friggen look at them, then. You get no sympathy from me on this one.

I hate hunt in general. I think hunters (even sport hunters) deserve to get killed by their own rifles. Why the hell you should like hunt? :~

We are destroying our planet. We are killing animals in such a brutal way. We are always at war with other humang beings. What's the worst thing? Please don't answer. It's only a matter of point of view. And "local" needs. ___________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us. My Blog [ITA]

Agreed 100%. Our food supply is dependant upon the deaths of other living beings. Period. Oh and lest anyone thinks I'm promoting vegatarianism, I'm not. Even vegans deprive food from other animals, just by consuming it. :) Chris Meech I am Canadian. [heard in a local bar] When I want privacy, I'll close the bathroom door.

Of course! First: feeding is the third need of an animal (and human being). The first is to breathe, the second is to drink. Second: all the animals used for human feeding are killed istantaneously. Cows get a nail in their skull, rabbits, chickens and so on are put in a machine that breaks their neckbones (istantaneously). Fishes, I agree, have a bad way to die, because they basically suffucate. Anyway I don't like fish. Third: killing animals only for making coats and woman accessories is really unacceptable (and when I say 'only' I mean that the meat is discarded). When you consider that those animals are killed (or even *not* killed) in that way, that practice become really absurd. IMHO. ___________________________________ Tozzi is right: Gaia is getting rid of us. My Blog [ITA]

Intentional or not, there is lots of cruelty that goes on in this world. I think we'd be better off working on the human to human cruely part of life and fixing that before we start arguing over what human to animal cruelty is considered acceptable.

I agree - here I get accosted by environmental activists wanting me to sign up for a monthly donation whenever I step outside of the office. My answer is always - screw the trees, I give a fair amount of money to World Vision, they help people. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

Sure. I get that. But given the choice between a tree being cut down and a child being raped or starving, I know where I want my money to go. To be honest, I used to also support greenpeace ( with a lesser amount than I do world vision ), and I stopped because I got sick of their constant aggressive street campaigns. If I get stopped by those people, I will also tell them that they used to have my money, but I got sick of being bullied on the streets. I increased my world vision support, and I'm very comfortable with that. Christian Graus - Microsoft MVP - C++

Well, I can understand that. Just leave a few trees left for us to hug. :laugh:

Oh man, it remimds me of the salvation army during Christmas time over here. Yeah, I agree, bullying is dumb.

That's cool. I think if everyone did their part in helping to make a world a better place in the way they set fit, we'd all be better off. Maybe everyone one of us wouldn't agree on every little detail, but by and large, we'd be moving in the right direction at least. Jeremy Falcon

'The point was they are weak men to resort to such brutality' what the fuck are you talking about. you should learn to shut your mouth before you talk shit.

I just don't see how people can get a kick out of beating an animal senseless for no reason at all. I mean, I'm not a pro-animal activist by any means, but seeing the seals in that video just breaks my heart. Jeremy Falcon

It's the annual seal harvest.
Why not at least make it so that the seals are put to rest peacefully? Add whatever cost it takes to get the seals peacefully as an expense of doing business. I think killing animals for vanity is stupid, but that video is just inhumane.
