Dolphin Slaughter
First you say its the crazy japs and now youre saying c'mon people its just the slaughter of dolphins = me confused
I'm not jumping your shit or anything but, what was the intended respose you wanted from posting this shocking video. Are people supposed to accept it and move on or did you want a response? You will find that most are not going to like this video or say "fuk, yeah dolphins are good to kill and eat".
I would think that any video of any slaughter of any animal is going to offset anyone who sees it.
Who WANTS to see this or seals getting clubbed? Are you supporting this or against it or just putting it out there and saying "this exists"? You seem to want to defend the right of these peoples' decision to do this but I think it is clear that it is not socially acceptable behavior. They have every right to fish whatever they want out of the water but we dont have to like it or agree that it should be done or even legal.
Your dismissal of the act is alarming. A Orca or shark killing a dolphin as part of the food chain is fine. A human, who is not a natural part of that animals eco-system or food chain, slaughtering it causes most of us distress because of the emotional attachment most of us have toward higher thinking animals like monkeys, whales, dolphins etc etc.
So when people say thats fucked up it is because it is. It is a foreign concept to most people to treat these "pedestal" animals like barnyard stock.
I see you point that it does happen and your analogy to "hey, why is it ok to do this to some animals but not others" but in the case of sea mammals there is too much emotional attachment to boil the rationale down that far.
Am i making sense here??

I love how everyone thinks because monkeys are intelligent and cute they're
somehow harmless, innocent creatures. chimps are the only species of
animals outside of humans that kill simply for sport and male dolphins will kill
the children of female dolphins simply to mate with the female, since they will
not mate if they have a current child.
yes the hunting of sharks, monkeys, tigers, dolphins, etc for food is pretty
pointless since it is only eaten for "status symbol" reasons. shark fin soup is
actually known to be very tasteless and excessive consumption can cause
medical complications due to high mercury content, but the Japanese elite
continue to eat this simply because it is an "exotic dish"
