I take it from your continued aggressive posture that you hate the Shepard crew and Captain based on extensive research of.............
Exactly what is your position on Whaling and its effects on Australian business's involved with the tourist industry?
Like most people in the world of my generation my main interest is my own survival. I have no desire to take on extra emotional baggage worrying about whales, eco-tourism or your silly questions.:shake:
If your not interested in this topic, I suggest you butt out as you don't need to have an opinion on f*cking everything.
... The only argument for a ban on whaling is the cuddly one. Whales are a massive resource. They are a top predator, so overfishing will wipe them out more quickly than smaller fish...
I am only just working my way through this thread, and so maybe someone else has already said this, yet a "top predator". You have got to be kidding me, or making it up, either way its good to see that the emotive language is not just for the fools on the catamaran.
Minke Whales are known to eat a wide range of fish species including krill, capeline, herring, sand lance, mackerel, gadoids, cod, saithe and haddock (Haug et al, 1996). Minke Whales are estimated to consume 633,000 tons of Atlantic herring per year in part of Northeast Atlantic (Folkow et al, 1997). In the Barents Sea, it is estimated that a net economic loss of five tons of cod and herring per fishery results from every additional Minke Whale in the population due the fish consumption of the single whale (Schweder, et al, 2000).
If that's not a predator, it will do until one comes along.
The topic is "Whale Wars". I am interested in why you and you mate IFocus are so upset;
. because I don't share your obsessional belief that whales are sacred.
. because I don't consider Watson and his gang of hoons to be heroes.
. that your need to stoop to abuse and gutter language to get your point across.
I find it hard to have a rational debate with most greenies. Maybe it is because there is not much between the ears.
Usually if they cant win a debate they resort to abuse and illegal or terror tactics. (sabotage logging machinery, spike trees, block public highways, etc.). Democracy is only OK for them if they get what they want.
In this area they are passionate about flying foxes, our biggest pest. Flying foxes are pretty dumb. Did you know that if they get caught in a fruit net that the bang their head against a hammer until they stop kicking?.

From experience, only inexperienced use hammers unfortunately its a pretty slow way to put an animal down but what ever turns you on ..............

Start a new thread "Flying fox wars" The whaling season has finished.
You have any evidence that greenies are stupid?

Well if you dont I guess thats an irrational statement you made.
Where I am from, saying someone doesnt have much between their ears is pretty much abuse.
Looks like you showed yourself to be a hypocrite in your first paragraph. Not the sort of mistake an intelligent person would make.
I guess you have a few rational debates with your mates, when you are out torturing bats.
I bet London to a brick that the sheep round your way have stomach ulcers.
Interesting your defending greenies when you have a fishing picture in your avatar? care to explain?
Empirical evidence. Not just a bunch of half assed opinions..
We can thank the Yanks for saving our butts in WW2. The British packed their collective tails between their legs and said, "Well, good luck Aussies, you're on your own!'. If the Yanks hadnt come through, well yeah, SushiHut it would be!
