1) They're not facts until I can check them and agree they're valid.
Until then, it's just your opinion.
2)I take plagarism seriously. Many other people do also.
It's stealing.
3)When you present facts that you use to support a position you have, then those should be facts checkable by others.
4)Facts you've gathered from a source should be quoted.
The TFP reply tools make it easy for you show information is quoted, and where it's quoted from.
It's also a courtesy to other members to link back to the original article.
5)Plagarism is seriously offensive.
I urge you to take it seriously yourself.

Killing animals for use is either okay or not okay.
It doesn't matter if one of fins is used, thier entire animal bodies, thier skins, or thier hooves. They're dead each way.
It also doesn't matter if they're cute or ugly, young or old.
If it's sustainable, it's okay. If the kill is not sustainable, it's not okay.
Other posters have put very logical reasons explaining why the seal hunt attracts so much attention. I see no reason to restate all that, but I do agree with them.
