Our warships should sink all those damn ships used in whale hunting.

Hunger?

Why should only the whales be saved? What about the cows and chickens?

because the whale sounds are an ancient language that reaches far out into space. when the whales stop talking to the space aliens, the aliens get very worried and come over here. The massive gravitational pull from their starships would disrupt the atmosphere on earth causing massive flooding and blocking out the sun.

I know.. why can't we hunt and kill anythinh we like. I'm sick and tired of the zoo telling me what I can eat and cannot eat. Why can't I roast a dolphin on a open fire? Or have some horse hamburger, maybe even a hedgehog BLT.

All Animals = Delicious :D

(minus Le Porc... je detest le swine :) )

Whales are not farmed while cows and chickens are farmed. Whales take a longer time to mature than cows and chickens. I think the blubber is used to make cosmetic products and I think in the old days people used it to light their oil lamps. :)

I wasn't aware of the blubber being eaten for food.

Another place where Dennis Leary is appropriate. ;)

Red meat, white meat, blue meat, meat-o-fvcking-rama. You will eat it. Because not eating meat is a decision. Eating meat is an instinct! Yeah! And I know what it's about. "I don't want to eat the meat because I love the animals. I love the animals." Hey, I love the animals too. I love my doggy. He's so cute. My fluffy little dog.. He's so cute- There's the problem. We only want to save the cute animals, don't we? Yeah. Why don't we just have animal auditions. Line 'em up one by one and interview them individually. "What are you?" "I'm an otter." "And what do you do?" "I swim around on my back and do cute little human things with my hands." "You're free to go." "And what are you?" "I'm a cow." "Get in the fvcking truck, ok pal!" "But I'm an animal." "You're a baseball glove! Get on that truck!" "I'm an animal, I have rights!" "Yeah, here's yer fvcking cousin, get on the fvcking truck, pal!" We kill the cows to make jackets out of them and then we kill each other for the jackets we made out of the cows.

As far as I'm aware, you can't get whale meat in your local supermarket. So I suspect that if you had a hankerin' for whale meat, you have to go kill it, right?

Our commercial meat industry allows [some of] us the luxury of feeling superior to those those 'lower' human forms who procure their own meat. Ah yes, what a nice arrangement that is....

"I don't understand how people could kill animals like that. Its barbaric. These people must have low IQs or something. Could you pass the A-1, please?"
