I have heard, in the past several days, so much fucking BULLSHIT about the seal hunt ... for instance: There’s Nothing More Humane Than A Spike Through The Skull
first, i will say you all need to get your facts straight. here is where you will find a worthy news source providing the TRUE facts surrounding the seal hunt. DON'T BOTHER COMMENTING TO THIS POST UNLESS YOU HAVE INFORMED YOURSELF ON THE ISSUE! Reading wires on Yahoo News or reading that crap that IFAW puts out IS NOT INFORMING YOURSELF anymore than reading the National Inquirer is! get your fucking facts straight before shooting your mouthes off! clearly, you don't know what you're talking about - and, frankly it PISSES me off!
i just want to point out that all those photos of the white coats, shown in relations to the seal hunt are quite misleading. the killing of white furs happens to be illegal, and has been since 1987. pehaps if you actually made an effort to learn about this you would sound more informed and intelligent.
and, while we are on the topic of killing young animals, perhaps you did not know that those veal cutlets you love so much are actually young cattle. did you know that these are cattle that have been deprived of grass all their young lives, kept in the dark, and fed a diet of milk powder? likely not ... you all sound like the type that thinks veal comes from your grocer's freezer! well, hun - think again! are you hooked now? you wanna learn more?
as for the 'carnage' of it all. how hypocrtical. have you been to a slaughter house? do you know how they slaughter all that steak, bacon, ham and veal cutlet? well here's a lesson for you meat lovers out there who think the seal hunt is carnage.
pigs are electrically shocked on their heads and cattle are stunned by a blow to the head with a bolt gun, the throat is slit, and they get hung up by their hind legs to bleed out. the blood that they bleed out is used to make sausage! and i will spare you the details of how pigs get their canine teeth, their tails and their testicles cut off - without any anesthetic - even before they get to the slaughter house! think about this next time you enjoy your bacon and eggs, will you?
and this is routine animal husbandry and meat processing - ROUTINE!
so - think about that, all you outraged animal lovers ... next time you bite into that juicy steak or burger. We are no better that the seal hunters and that's that f*cking truth!
Oh yeah ... and before you worry about what Stephen Harper is smoking you may want to be worried about why the jack ass who is running your country thinks he can leak classified information to bolster support for his illegal war!

This means challenging my self to compassionate, encouraging, genuine and hostile-free exchanges. It also means contemplating my reaction to the thoughts, feelings and expressions of others, prior to acting upon them.

wow, I seem to have hit a nerve here with this post... the only other person who was so angry about this was Flabbergasted Heathen, also Canadian...
I am a bit more educated than you'd expect, MMB... I learned about the existence of the hunt a couple years ago, and at that time also learned that the furry pups can't be slaughtered, and that they have to be at least a year old before you can "humanely" kill them... but can't say it would have changed my blog any... I feel as bad for the old seals as for the young...
I also know where veal, foie gras and other meat products come from, having been a complete vegetarian since the 1990s, and having had some involvement with animal rights...
if you've read any of my other posts, you'd never question my Bush-bashing credits... it's an almost daily topic for me... you and Flab seem to think people only criticize their own leaders... not so! and I would like to hear Harper's explanation of how the hunts are humane (his word) as much as I'd like to hear Bush explain how he has the authority (his word) to permit illegal wiretaps...
btw, Yahoo news links often go to AP, who know a good bit more than tabloids do...
