When fisheries began to be depleated, they started scouring the bottom of the ocean and what did they get? A great new big fish. Only after a while did they realize that they might live as long as 150 years.
I doubt that even the natives should have a quota on any whales. Just leave them the fuck alone for christsakes. Claiming that they need to hunt whales to support their heritage reminds me of the lumberjacks here in Northern California that claim that they _need_ to kill old-growth redwoods to save their jobs. It also reminds me of oil... and how urgently humans consume resources that are essentially non-renewable.
what's the point. i say give every NRA member a nuke and let's get this show over with.
hope everyone enjoys explaining to their children and grandchildren that we slaughtered a whole group of mammals that live in the sea because it was easy money. i also hope everyone enjoys trying to explain how similar to humans the large primates _were_ once they're all dead. i can't wait to hear all the funda-christians denying that the great apes were anything more than monsters.
