158 whales killed in Japanese whaling expedition (fwd)

100 out of 700000+(?) minke, 50 out of 22000 bryde's whales, and 8 out of 102000 sperm whales. In which way is this a threat to either of those

So you, like Peter McCloskey, are a hypocrit and cannot demonstrate where there is a lack of science.

[more than 150 cites snipped for brevity]

1) Whales are not people.

2) Any whale that finds it's way into the silverdome is safe from whalers.

1) Because it isn't wrong.

2) It isn't wrong because you say so.

3) You're still using racist slurs.

Whales are not humans. Humans need to eat. Whales are edible, just like carrots. I don't see you whining over carrots being killed by humans. Are carrots less valuable than humans?

Who says they use tigers in the name of science? That's stupid.

The hypocrisy is the continuation of commercial whaling under the guise of scientific research. Obviously, you would support a return to full scale commercial whaling. Although a horrendous prospect, at least that would be honest.

You have not demonstrated that such a thing exists. But your argument that it is so _because_ the Japanese Science Project sells the whale meat _as required_ by the IWC rules, is the height of hypocrisy.

'Full scale commercial whaling' is ambiguous, and I most certainly would not support any definition that I'm familiar with. You clearly haven't got a clue.

In what way? First define you terms so that we have some idea what you are even talking about. Second, do not put words into my mouth as *I* will be the one to make statements about what I do or do not support.
