No they don't, but eating a seal is like picking up dog shit and eating it.

 

Please explain to me how it is the same thing?

 

Cause nobody eats shit, and hardly anyone eats seals...

Sorry, that's not a valid comparaison. "Nobody" != "Hardly anyone"

 

NOBODY! I've never heard of anyone eating shit.. Unless you've seen someone do it.. And movies don't count.

 



 

Reputation proceeds me, they told you I'm crazy, I swear I don't love the drama it loves me <3

You're missing my point there. You said eating seal was the same ( = ) as eating shit then to explain you bring out that nobody (0) eats shit and that hardly anyone ( any number greater than 0, let's say a 100) eats seals. So:

0 = 100 is false so it's not the same.

There is nothing wrong with that opinion.  You must be willing to concede that someone that kills a seal is a normal person, and not satanic, evil or demented in some way.

Well Cows are eaten everywhere,  how many people can say they've eaten seal. I stick by my opinion that eating a seal is the same as eating shit and piss.
Devout Muslims don't eat beef, vegans don't eat beef, Hindu don't eat beef, people typically in the arctic do not eat beef.

...That's equates to a lot of people. But you've dodged the more important point. Why does it matter how many people do it? Because it is more popular?

Also:
"I just think people are protecting it cause they like the taste of seal meat"

Two things:
1.  I've never had seal meat before, I've never even had moose meat before (which is hugely popular in Newfoundland). Like you, I can't bring myself to eat something that I'm not used to and didn't grow up with.
2.  So what if they like it? You like beef, so you eat it.

Not everyone is muslim and hindu though. It's really cool that they stick to their beliefs and don't eat cow and pork, my hat is off to them for that cause thats what they believe in.
But I just think eating cows it way differrent than eating a seal. Only like 2 places eat seal, I've never met anyone that eats seal, and I've never been to a resturaunt where seal was on the menu.

1. Moose meat is fucked up too.
2. I don't snack on it constantly and I don't cheer on animal killers for it though.
Your argument here is that since it's not a popular world food source, it's disgusting and wrong to eat.  This is OK for an opinion on personal preference (that is, what you would find disgusting and not want to eat) but it's totally wrong to take your personal tastes (or global popularity of a given food) and claim it constitutes some kind of moral imperative.

'It's not wrong because lots of people do it' 'It is wrong because few people do it' 'I do it so it must be OK'  Your argument disgusts me.  (Therefore, by your logic, you are sick and wrong.)
LOL! I'm sick and wrong cause I think eating seals is wrong? Well in that case I think its sick and wrong that you think its okay that hunters club seals with sticks. Nobody is forcing you to read my opinion.

And nobody is forcing you to look at pictures of seals getting clubbed.  But both of these things are happening. 

Anyway, it sounds by the tone of your voice that you think my parenthesized argument (at the end of the post) was nonsense.  You are right, it is a totally illogical argument that I based on your own arguments that you derive from your own kneejerk reaction and emotional personal opinion of seal hunting. 

In any case, you've overlooked the bigger point, which is that "Your argument here is that since it's not a popular world food source, it's disgusting and wrong to eat.  This is OK for an opinion on personal preference (that is, what you would find disgusting and not want to eat) but it's totally wrong to take your personal tastes (or global popularity of a given food) and claim it constitutes some kind of moral imperative."

And you also seem to have overlooked an even BIGGER problem with your stated position (see below).

This argument is still going on? I thought I resolved this on page 1...

You talk about bringing in other predators (instead of man) to control the population. How do you suppose these predators would "control" the seal population? It's not with seal condoms, I can tell you that. They will KILL them.

If you think bashing their brains in is too cruel -- even through they are dead in a few seconds at most -- why does your proposed alternative involve animals that will chase down and viciously tear apart the very same seals, clawing or biting through flesh, ripping their guts out, and maybe even starting to EAT while the seal is still dying.

If that is your more humane alternative, I have to ask: What the fuck are you thinking?
I really love how you responded to every post EXCEPT mine.

If I am wrong about what your position was [is], tell me.  If you can defend it, do so.  If you can't, admit it -- to do otherwise is cowardice.  (That's not to say you have to give up your position, but you have to admit you can't support it.)

Please respond to this post, Ps3.
