And you don't know them (the sealers), so stop telling them how to live their fucking lives!

"But still, are the seal hunters that hungry they need to kill 300,000 seals a year. I don't think so. I think they are just bored."

• Are you so hungry that you NEED to kill dozens of cows and chickens each year? No? Shall I make presumptions about you?

"It's because no animal should be beat to death and dragged away and skinned while they are still alive."

• This is simply a lie. Paul McCartney and his ex-wife tried to pull this on on Newfoundland's Premier, Danny Williams. The video you've likely seen of that is over 10 years old and was an isolated incident. I'm sure most of these hunters wouldn't do such a horrid thing as not killing an animal before continuing to skin, despite its cries. I know of the video you speak. Yes it is disgusting. Yes that man was cruel. Yes he should suffer whatever consequences that could have been dealt. But most of them would not do something like this.

I've never talked to someone who was so blatently ignorant to facts as you have been during this discussion. You just keep turning back to the argument of "But their SEALS! cute!"

@PS3

This makes me very sad dude, serisouly. Many people have tried to give you facts about the hunt to try and justify why it exists while you scream at the top of your lungs " NAH NAH NAH I'M NOT LISTNING THEIR CUTE!!" at the top of your lungs and their the wrong ones? You've made personal attacks on honest people doing a job, which is the exact equlivent of what happens to every animal that you do eat, ignored every logic put towards you and blatently stated that birds, fish and god knows what else are less important then seals. This makes me so very sad......

i understand you don't like the idea of seals getting beaten to death, really i do. It's not a happy thought, but to just refuse to belive that a cow dies a much worse death after a much worse life , because it's socaly excptable to eat beef? I belive that borders on insane.  What pushes me over the border of insanity is that when people finaly get sick of taking to a brick wall that can only repeat " i don't like it so it's wrong" you just spurt out with " you just don't like what i'm saying".

The upshot of what i'm trying to say here is this: i understand that you don't like it and that's perfectly fine, not everybody who eats meat has to be a butcher. What's not fine is saying "because I don't have a use for it's wrong and should stop", or saying "cuteness determines your importance and right to live", or "it's fine to do this to one animal but not to another". It is especaly wrong to say "i don't understand this so i am going to condem it even though i am a party to much the same thing on animals that are less cute." As i said, you don't have to be a butcher to eat meat, but you do have to admit that an animal died so you could live, and you really should realize that animals raised as our food have very shitty lives. minimum space, minimum food, horrible transpot conditions and brutal deaths.

i'm not going to try and convince you anymore, you want to look like a happy asshole, go right ahead. Just remember, seals are mamals, mamals are red meat and you have admited to eating red meat.

.

It has nothing to do with them being cute its because there are assholes out there just eating them cause they see them. I don't believe an honest job is commiting murders everyday.

Don't say I'm a happy asshole cause I'm sticking up for life, and think the evil mosters doing this are wrong. Okay, red meat, but I'm still not eating seals. I can eat something else.

Thank you! Seal Hunters are nasty monsters. I don't agree that its worse than racism, but killing animals is fucked up.

There are millions of people that (according to you) commit murders every day to make money.

Your sticking up for life????? Who is the almighty being that gets to decide what life is important enough to not be ended by a human?

Killing animals is probably one of the most normal things we do on this planet.  I really think you should stop using your personal opinions to decide if someone elses life style is right or wrong.  When you believe that the best thing for everyone would be to willingly end thousands of jobs, just to protect some seals.  I'm not too sure how I am supposed to side with you on this, or even start to see where you are coming from.

The seal murderers are commiting animal murders to make money.

It's obviously not my choice, if it were my choice these people wouldn't be allowed 10 feet next to an animal.

It's fucked up because its so fucking weird to eat a seal, its like eating shit and drinking piss.

I'm still trying to figure out how you figure that sealers are any different than workers that kill cows, baby cows (aka veal), sheep, baby sheep, pests, rodents, fish, lobsters (which are cooked alive), crab, deer, ducks, chickens, frogs, etc.  I think you get the idea here, I'm basically asking you a direct question, where is the line drawn as to what is killable and what isn't?
