[Mike Wild]

That's some sad freaking sh*t

I had to shut it off.

[Chucky3436]

Mind you guys in alot of places in asia, theres the fringe elements of the old ways that still run stuff like this. I would assure you that over 99% of the normal population most likely is just as disgusted as you or I in regards to this type of activity.

This is the same thing as the Koreans eating dog. Most of the newer generation of modern koreans are most revolted by the idea and its not every one that eats dog for dinner on a regular basis.

And id also try like to try to let you find a chinese person that enjoys watching dogs get slaughtered for fur, or eats monkey brains.

This is a select group of backwards non-progressive people within this country that refuse to envelop modern humane ideals.

Dont clump the whole country with they consider rural backwards hick type people. It would be similar to saying all 4x4 drivers are incestuous squeel like a pig redneck country fxckers.

[SizzleChest]

ya, i can't watch that stuff.

on a lighter note, i saw an asian family today (most likely newly immigrated) driving with their N on the passenger side window :D

[belmont mild]

Chucky3436 you have some good points but in the day we live in today we don't whalehunt like the old days/ we aren't aloud to rape the oceans of tuna and other things bans and such treaties that are stated in the end of that clip...

They even sell the meat as whale meat in the stores which is bull**** marketing..

Anywyas the whole way they fished those poor dolphins into a ball and beat-dragged cut them to death/ i dunno that was just morbid.

[gavman]

Sizzlechest, you're funny

[axldrgn]

that is just ****ing wrong!!!

i dont wanna see that.

[slappy]

i couldn't even watch the whole video. what's wrong with these people. i hope they all die a slow and painfull death.

[Bog Hog]

if thats they way they get rid of pests in their country. We should round them up and do the same:redneck

[MR.MIKE]

that sh*t is f*cked up how can they do that.... o well one day they will get theres

Oh i totally agree.

Then again, i never thought the japanese were very sane as a whole anyways :laugh

Its a hard sell though, the old ways of thinking still run alot of power and politics in asian countries. I am quite positive that in a few generations such practices will be completely eliminated as the young, educated and more progressive people take control and discard of such things.

Look at China for example. The entire govt is run by a bunch of old farts who run the country with an iron fist. They are teh OLD ways of thinking. The young generation knows of modern technology, of humane ideals and of free thought. Thats what happened at Tiannamen square...the youth revolted, and the old men put them down. Sooner or later, these old men will fade away and the next generation will take over. When that happens, i assure you things like this will be no more.

Its only a matter of time.

We do it for a good cause, like our salmon population if you dont watch the seal population there becomes to many and guess what they eat our ever disapearing salmon stocks

That's it. That's what everyone is worried about, those damn SEALS eating all the salmon... THAT'S why they are disappearing!!! How come we all didn't come to this realization before?!

You f-tard.

That is an assinine comment that does not have any effort what-so-ever of being remotely educated. Decreased stocks wouldn't have to do anything with the daily dumping of vast tonnes of toxic waste, untreated raw sewage, MERCURY, arsenic (just to name a very few) in oceans/river systems. Nor would it have to do with the ever looming threats of fish farming...

I say good day sir!!! :angry

[muddhunter]

You guys watched too much Flipper when you were young. That was no more inhumane than boiling a crab alive. Actually I think I might like to try some Dolphin meat one day.:D

That's what I figured, but I guess people get more defensive over cute cuddly mammals then the poor crustations.

People should be equally irrate about how dolphins are kept in small crappy pens and made to swim with us dumbass humans over and over in places like Mexico and what not.

I think if your concerned about that you may want to investigate the **** dumped into the oceans by North America alone...

the effects of the dolphin massacre are limited to those dolphins...what type of effects across the eco system do you think pouring chemical and by rpoducts into the ocean has aross the scale...


there is a bigger problem here.

[littletruck]

The bigger problem is people who think that there is more to it than that, but the the problem persists from the ignorants of the people trying to bring up other problems than what was seen. Yes, we our selves are not perfect but we are a alot more humain than China or Japan and yes may have a seal hunt but, compared to what these other countrys do we dont even come close. So to all of you that want to blam it on polution or other causes your just as bad as the ones that say, if we dont kill them the polution will. Well polution dont round up hundreds of poor inacent dolphins in to nets and the procced to beat, cut or sufficate them to death.

So all of you should think before you speak.

right instead you pollute foodchains and make a cross species sufferage much more brutal then the 'short' length of time it takes to kill a dolphin...think france and underwater nuke testing...

so instead of being holier then thou, perhaps you could think a little about the bigger picture. I believe the narrator even said this is a seasonal event.

[belmont mild]

alright if i knew this was gonna get heaty and debated i would have said it from the beginning...


If you are gonna kill **** be kind about it don't drag it alive down a road slit its throat and let it hop around in ****ing pain... Just shoot the faking thing dead end of it..

I think what im getting at is if someone you knew was on the way out would you wnant them to be in pain would you let someone come in slice them up so they die hurting?

I think not...

You would not let it be done to a human/ dog/ cat pet bird you get my point! And if it were you would have all kinds of humane people up your ass so far!!!!

**** the bigger picture. There are kids living on the streets in our own towns, there are problems with people in our own province and you are crying about dolphins suffering in china and some seals? Let's devote or attention to ourselves.

Look up irony in the dictionary (the big book with words and the meanings of said words).

If you truly think that North Americans are all about humanity, you really are a moron.

Do you only buy cruelty-free products? Do you scream bloody murder at all the companies that use animals for testing when producing your cologne, deoderant, toothpaste, shampoo, conditioner, hair gel, lube, anti-itch ointments? I think not. Did you ever rip off legs off spiders, the tails off newts, burn ants with a magnifying glass, shoot squirrels with a pellet gun? Get mad at the people that set nets out on the rivers to catch sockeye, and leave the nets out too long so all the fish die, making one fat stinky load of garbage? Eat beef? Think feedlots are little all-inclusive vacations cows enjoy before being stunned, forced to their knees, and then have their jugular slit, and are hung upside down moving forward on a mechanical line, where they die by blood loss/choking on their own blood? You really sitting there and telling me that us North Americans do everything humanely?

You sir, are a walking contradiction.

Apples and oranges are two different things aswell, but they are still fruit

I brought the "seal thing" up because it seemed like alot of people believe that these kind of things don't happen here in North America.

no shiat

[Kellykins]

Speaking of bigger picture... People that have dependance problems are usually co-morbid, meaning they have a co-occuring disorder with the addiction. So, how can you treat the addiction without addressing the mental illness? You can't tell a person with these problems to "get a job", talk about not seeing the bigger picture. Expecting a person with untreated schizophrenia (or other mental illness) to hold down a job is totally unrealistic, and saying such does not help anyone, least of all the person with the illness.

You would be very surprised to learn that a large percentage of Lower East Side street folk are actually released patients from Riverview from over a decade ago due to government cut backs.


EDIT: Wow... and it happened in North American you say? :confused2

I think he was referring to the large percentage of "homeless" people that choose to be homeless; the ones that prefer to sleep in a dumpster rather than in a shelter, yet they want all the free handouts. These people are milking the system and they can safely be told to get a job. If they were to do so, we could then afford to give the legitimate "homeless" people the help they need.

I still don't see the difference. I just see a bunch of judging and assumptions. I mean, what mentally healthy person CHOOSES to be homeless? What goes on in the mind of a person that choses a dumpster over a bed? That doesn't sound very "normal" to me. Actually, sounds like paranoia, which is a fairly common feature of schizophrenia! Ever actually talked to one of these people and have them tell you that they CHOSE that lifestyle? That and shelters are always chock full, especially in the colder months. Where else can they go?

You don't see the difference between a sick homeless person over a lazy person that claims chosses to be homeless rather than being a contributing member of our society?

You should watch the news. Or head downtown. Heck, even in Coquitlam we have our fair share of beggers. I have lost count of how many times I have seen o nthe news when they are doing a report on the homeless, or some sort of protest, and there is always one or two interviews where these so called homeless people refuse help, admit that they chose to be homeless, and that they would rather sleep on a park bench than in a shelter. I don't care what YOU call it, but to me, they have chosen their own destiny. If they want help, it is there, but they don't want it.

And yes, I have talked to a few of them....when they ask me for change. I always refuse, and start asking them questions. The legit ones answer, and I have bought a few of them a cup of coffee. The ones that tell me to F-off are the ones that walk away to their car and move to another street corner. Did you catch that? A homeless begger with a car! Even caught one go to a $50k 4-Runner!

Don't be fooled! Not all homeless and beggers are what they appear to be. There is good money in begging for change.

As I already said, there are legit homeless and sick folk on the street, but they are out-numbered by scamming, lazy bums that don't contribute anything to society other than milking money from our pockets. These are the ones that need to get a job, or move to another province.

Yep, I have actually WORKED with homeless folk downtown Vancouver. And I disagree, there are more genuinely needy (of healthcare and food/shelter) then there are scammers. And I know there are scammers, I'm not saying every homeless person (or person that appears to be homeless, rather) is the real deal. But after working in a clinic down there that focused on the forgotten populations of the Lower Mainland, my eyes have seen the light, so to speak.

So how does one judge between the sick and the greedy? Are you truly capable in ability and true knowledge to make those judgment calls?

[Bronco Boy]

Originally posted by Kellykins So how does one judge between the sick and the greedy? Are you truly capable in ability and true knowledge to make those judgment calls?
We shouldn't be judging. We should be sifting through and putting aside the scammers and help the truly sick. It is not to hard to determine that with a simple one on one converstaion.

I was just talking to my shipper about this, and he said he saw a new clip this summer about an apple farmer that walked through the streets of Kelowna offering the homeless people a job and a place to sleep. He couldn't find anybody to work for him. If I was truly homeless, I would jump at an opportunity to make some money and improve my life.

I will admit that I am not a very sympathetic person when it comes to this subject. Things like the Safe Injection sites are an absolute waste of money. Why not have one for Marijuana? Crack? PCP? Cocaine? Lets just have a big old drugfest downtown!

It is unfortunate that the bad apples ruin it for the good apples, but isn't that how the world works?

Well a psychiatrist would have to be doing these suggested one-on-one conversations then. And really, you can't make a diagnosis based on one conversation (that and the paranoid would likely refuse to talk to such a person).

I could see that ill folk would deny a job. I'm sure there are a lot of jerks that are content to milk the system, but my point is there is no cut and dry system to weed them out from the sick.

The safe injection site is located in a really "heroin" part of town. Every neighbourghood has a drug of choice. I worked in the "chrystal" part of town. And the injection sites are really cost effective. Look into how much one trip to the ER for an overdose case costs. The cost of Narcan (the drug that kicks out the opiates out of the opiate receptors, creating instant withdrawl) is obsene, let alone life support and other treatments. The safe injection site only needs to prevent one overdose a week or something to be cost effective, so really, they are SAVING you money, and preventing the addicts from clogging up ERs for the rest of us with our Darwin Award contestant related injuries.

And if you wanted to save even more tax dollars, legalize everything. Let the buyers of these things pay the damn tax themselves. (Pls. note: I do not nesseccarily agree with these views myself, but it is a feasable solution to the problem at hand...)

If it was some ugly, stupid creature, like, hmmm... ugly creature... can't think of one at the moment, besides certain politicians to the South, there wouldn't be this outcry.

How bout the bears, wolves, cougars (not so cuddley, but pretty just the same) that are currently threatened to be slaughtered in lame-ass hopes to protect caribou numbers right in our own freaking province?!

[sinner]

Whats the big deal? Its food just like fish,cow, prawns, etc ....people have such a ****ty attitude towards stuff we dont see as edible food

I dont see the problem with asians eating dogs either. And dont even start the argument that there pets. I had a friend that had to pot bellied pigs for pets....pretty smart ones too.

The only thing that i see that could be improved on is that they slice them open still alive but as someone has already stated ....we boil crabs live whats the diffence?

[sparrow]

Why do we always pick one creature and lament about it? Sinner is right; Canada is just as guilty. As are we. But to make racist comments is worse. Far worse.
Do a little research on what we are doing to this planet and its inhabitants before picking just one isolated incident.... and if you do actually care enough about this one isolated incident DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!! Instead of sitting on your butt making a racist comment, while wiping you very own blood soaked hands of the entire debacle.
Did one of you actually do anything else. Just one?
Thought so.
But calling the Japanese derogatory names or suggesting we bomb them will help. Right?
Losers.

Animals suffer and always will, same as humans. I needed a good emotional release, so I watched both the dolphin and seal films. There are many mistakes we make that need to change.

Thats always my comment to vegetarians when they lament how cruel hunting is... just gotta laugh it off:redneck :redneck :redneck

[mabb]

Are dolphins endangered? Whales are, but the Japanese continue to kill them (likewise certain other 'peoples' much closer to home).
Life is life: in the natural order of things, some die that others live. Don't expect your dog to be a vegetarian any more than a tiger is. People are omnivores. That is an indisputable scientific fact. Cultural differences may cause offense, but they are cultural - not moral. Some societies eat bugs: do you want a plate full of meal worms?

There are only two problems with killing any given animal: 1). if it is endangered you are risking wiping it out completely; 2). if you're just killing it for sport (i.e. not going to make use of the meat & hide) you're just being a silly, cruel bastard.

Remember: what goes around comes around. You may be able to shoot an elephant, but in the end it may be some microbe that does you in.

Me, I support the right to arm bears. :)

[fookeneh]

22 cal bullets are dirt cheap. I'm sure they could figure out how to kill something quicker. Poor people from poor villages in Japan , and Newfies , are probably too ignorant and hungry to figure that out.

[CamM]

Different cultures have different beliefs. That's what it comes down to. We see things like the dolfin video, and we're offended. In other parts of the world, things that are normal here would disgust people - like having a pet rat, or dog for that matter. Did you know that in the middle east dogs are feared and RARELY kept as pets? And people are still stoned to death? I can't remember the reason, but a little while ago it was in the news about a girl being sentenced to stoning. In the west we see ourselves as the moral police, but we really need to take a look at home first. Let he in the glass house cast the first stone.
And the homeless thing - Do you really think that someone without a mental issue would choose to be homeless? These people, for the most part, have gotten themselves into situations that it is beyond their capability to get themselves out of. And to those of you who say "get a job" Take away your resources to type a resume, bathe, wash your clothes, and lets not forget you don't have a phone number for them to call you, or an address. How many people do you think would even interview you, never mind hire you? I work downtown and there are people who try to contribute to society. There is a guy in Gastown who helps people find parking spots - if there is time left on a meter he will tell you so you can save a few cents, he'll direct people while they are backing out of parking spots, that sort of thing. He works for the little bit of money he gets. Some people try.

Hey regarding the guy in Gastown, i know him casually from working in the area, name starts with an "S", Anwyways i will be talking to him in a few weeks re a temporary job while i work in the area.
Job description; Spend about eight hours a day watching work vehicles in a parking lot to prevent break-ins to said vehicles by those that would do such things.
I will be curious to see if he is interested....

And people are still stoned to death? I can't remember the reason, but a little while ago it was in the news about a girl being sentenced to stoning.

Was that the case where she was sentenced to stoning for adultery?

Hey regarding the guy in Gastown, i know him casually from working in the area, name starts with an "S", Anwyways i will be talking to him in a few weeks re a temporary job while i work in the area.
Job description; Spend about eight hours a day watching work vehicles in a parking lot to prevent break-ins to said vehicles by those that would do such things.
I will be curious to see if he is interested....

Good on you! Be a part of the solution, instead of a part of the problem.

Well at least Saddam is going to hang. It would be magnificent if they would tie Bush to the same rope.

How would appeals work in this sort of court? Are they allowed appeals like we are in Can and the US? Cuz if so, could be a looooooong while before we see a hangin' (if there's one at all).

Bush or Saddam? I say they both hang. Saddam is very smooth, but he is also a murdering savage . Bush is a dumb f u c k , and his invasion cost 25000 + dead iraqies and 3000 dead soldiers, not to mention the economy gone for s h i t .

Bush or Saddam?

Ha ha... If I supported the death penalty I'd totally agree.

[brian468]

the prime minister is saying saddam will be swingin before the year is out.

In some cases, people are hardwired and naturally equipped to earn the death penalty. It comes down to costing way to much to keep them alive. In alot of cases, doing life in an institution is worse, so the perp ends up doing himself in.
