Thanks guys for you interest in helping end horse slaughter in America. I have sent you both an email via The Humane Society so you can ask your state Senators to support the Sweeney-Sprat bill to end this horrible act. It is not spam! Thanks again, I really appreciate it, and also left you a comment in my Save the Domestic Horse thread. Take care. Cindi

The Japanese are still going to slaughter 700+ whales this year. "Scientific research"....they must think the rest of the world is mentally retarded.....this is the sort of "scientific research" that McDonalds does to potatoes by creating 'fries with that'.

And we dick-head Aussies still let them refuel their killing machines in our ports...and much of the killing goes on in Australian territorial waters...[Antarctica] ....

I don't know why we don't impound their ships like we do with the Indonesian fishing boats.....maybe it's because we're wimps...or maybe it's because whales aren't fish....

OMG! That is horrible. Is there anything we can do about it? What are they researching now? I don't even want to know what they are actually doing to them. I won't be able to sleep. This is a sick world. And money is the name of the game. It must bring in more money than they can pass up. But, please don't call all Aussies dick -heads. One of the best friends I have ever had is from Aussie Land. I don't think you are one either. And where is Steve the Crock Hunter. I would think he would be involved in trying to stop it, even though they aren't reptiles.

You know Paul it's hard to believe this is the year 2005.....it's NOT 1846....are the Japanese so hard-up they have to do this sort of thing???? I guess they aren't creating enough jobs through cars, cameras, steel, ceramics, et al!

Mr fudoshi ...the 'dick-head' comment can be laid squarely at Little Johnnie Howard's feet....he's too busy sucking up to Bush one moment and not wanting to stand up for himself [us] against anyone North of here the next.

BTW....I'm an Aussie...so hence the 'we dickhead Aussies'...

To translate...what the Japs call 'scientific research' the rest of the civilised world calls 'farming'...or 'hunting for food'.

Trick is...they don't NEED whale meat....but, like killing minks for coats or hunting foxes for 'sport' they do it for its commercial benefit.

Anyone want to kill elephants for their ivory to keep rich colonials in silverware handles?

Anyone want to kill Tigers for their testicles for an aphrodisiac?

Anyone want to kill Rhinos for similar with their horns?

So...some overly spoiled upper-class twit from Nippon can have fun sucking on dead whale and they call it 'research'.

Personally, I can think of a much more fun 'sport'....let's all go whaler-hunting....see how many slaughterhouses we can sink.....after all...it's OUR Territorial waters.

Actually...we could get the French Govt to do it...they are expert....they sank the Rainbow Warrior in New Zealand.....only killed one person....

That'll do it...

Interesting. Even Whale hunting is blamed on Bush.

And we dick-head Aussies

Don't quite be so harsh on all y'all:

quote:
The nations voted 30-27 for an Australian resolution that said Japan's plan should be withdrawn unless the new research can be conducted without killing the whales. The resolution also called for a review of the results of the current research program.

Mr fudoshi...clearly you're not reading clearly. I am an Australian....always have been....born Currie, King Island 1954.

I am NOT an American calling people names...I am an Aussie calling MYSELF and my elected Government names....though I'd never vote for Cardigan Man [our Liberal PM]...not even if my life depended on it...

Bichur ...unfortunately the chances are that Japan will simply ignore the vote...and probably just leave the 'association' and do their own thing...regardless of public opinion.

IF their hip-pocket can be hurt through trade sanctions....or AT LEAST denying them their refuelling in Australia then maybe it'd be more than a bunch of talking heads going 'tut-tut, how horrid' and putting their collective hands up as a show of displeasure.

That'll do something less than ZERO without real definitive action. Nothing short of scuttling the whaling fleet will see our Global Community progress any further from the 19th century barbarism of Specie decimation we've all apparently NOT learned from.

Oh...and the 27 who voted FOR the continuation of the whaling.....let's hope they enjoy their collusion with commercial kick-back.....hate to think they were just plain ignorant savages and getting nothing out of it...

Thank you clwoods - I signed the petition in my girlfriend's name because she absolutely loves horses. Everywhere you look in our house you will see horses. My hard drive is full of horse pictures. So anyhow - again thank you.

I would gladly send them $3.50 us (price of a whaleburger) every week to keep them from killing any at all.
