sorry. I had to rush off at the end of the message and my medication was kicking in.
the second point goes to people who truly believe that it is okay to kill these whales.
i am saying first off as a person who loves most animals over some people, i think it wrong entirely. However, due to the nature of the problem (by which i mean it is culture and tradition for people what, 2k miles away?) my personal and moral beliefs mean grapes. i accept it.
what i think could happen to appease everyone is a comprimisation on both our stance and the hunters' stance.
what I see as a possible solution is to ask if they could hunt some more numerous whales/fishes. the idea of hunting something that is close to extinction terrifies me. if they are hellbent on killing a whale, maybe they could find another species that is more numerous.. this will take effort and most people fear effort.... but it'd be so worth it.
mr. Ant pointed out to me that most likely there would be some people checking the numbers frequently....
i'm with you trecool. i'm actually with ant too to an extent.
instead of keeping on posting why this one cannot do this vs why they can do this, let us focus on deplomacy and try to find a sollution and compromise.
