So its back to being 2 excuses for this - in my experience when you need 2 arguments, 1 or more likely, both, are bullshit.
Anyway, save the thread, I'm way too drunk to save the seals now. I have a feeling it will come up again  |
nobody is saying its a perfect solution, what we are saying is its the ONLY solution right now..
you can either throw up your hands and say " nature will sort it out " or you can say "hey we fucked up nature , maybe we should try to put it back as best we can because all data suggest we fucked with it so much we are gonna lose some shit here"
Theres 2 arguments because theres 2 issues here..
#1 the killing of seals with clubs and such
#2 the killing of seals period
ok theres 3 actually
#3 boycotting canadian seafood ( thread topic )
#1-The only way we know to kill seals is to bash them with clubs, guns scare them , the government has a ban on silencers for guns..
easy solution , issue permits for silencers
problem # 1 solved
#2 this is kind of 2 parts , seals are actually used for meat and skins like other animals ( cows etc ) , but the seal hunts arent meant for that ( mainly ) , they are culls to keep the population in check as the cod stocks rebuild on their own, this isnt the best solution but i dont hear any others..
#3 boycotting canadian seafood just doesnt make sense , almost every country has farms where animals are treated thousand of times worse than a club to the head.. it just doesnt make sense.. how can anyone compare the lifetme mistreatment of cows/pigs/chickens to a one-time clubbing and call it a boycottable offense
