"A group of tourists on China's Sanya City beach have been accused of contributing to the death of a stranded dolphin by pulling it out of the water and posing with it in photographs". <br /> (From the Daily News et al.) If a mutual hatred of tourists and animal abuse doesn't unite us, I don't know what will.
Zeroevol, the Rwandan genocide is twenty years old. It is nonetheless relevant, as is the ongoing Ceticide that contaminates the soul of humanity. Do you not care? No, I believe they are wealthy Chinese Frat-bros, getting shacked in the green room of Yuan, riding the cresting surge of liquid assets. And no one can stop them, because there's no locals in globalization. The international economy belongs to no one, my fellow soul spender.
The ongoing Cetecide you refer to Slashdog is no laughing matter. Hopefully the tide will turn on this unfortunate chapter in human history. Nantucket Island is still a rich enclave, and they no longer whale. Japan and other whaling nations should be ashamed, but as you say, there are no locals in the high seas as well as the global economy. Such lack of respect, even if it was a shark, is despicable. To treat a sea mammal with such utter disregard should be worth some sort of brutal punishment, served up on the spot. Maybe a triple prong speartip to the face, Miami Vice style.
No laughing matter indeed. Except for your mention of a "triple prong speartip to the face." That has me laughing, because one prong would probably suffice:
The triple prong won't penetrate as deep, so survival is possible. This way the education process can proceed.
au contraire! it belongs to those willing to work for the least amount of money but the dolphin molestation has to stop, enough is ENOUGH
