Tourists should boycott Norway and let them know we will not return until they stop whaling.

When I was a young child my grandmother and I went to the movies and watched a documentary about whale hunting.It turned out to be one of the worst things I have seen in my life !I believe watching that movie with my grandmother there talking about it with me taught me the respect I have for animals.I wish other people who murder animals (for which today there is no other way to describe it)would find a better way to make their money-and to those who insist on the FINE whale steaks-YOU ARE SUPPORTING THE MURDER OF THESE BEAUTIFUL CRERATURES-

As long as the Whale provides food, clothing, and perfumes...people should be quiet. The perfume you are wearing and keep nuying i most likely made from Whale fat...It is easy to say things like "find another way to make a living" and "You are supporting the murder of these beautiful creatures". But in reality, you probably live in an area that food is plentiful. Let Norway do what they do...the tourists should have been expecting sucha thing. If they were shocked, they most probably live in a domesticated nation.

*typo anouncement* The perfume you are wearing and keep nuying i most likely made from Whale fat should say: The perfume you are wearing and keep buying is most likely made from Whale fat...sorry for the typo

It is called ambergris but is illegal to sell. They now make it synthetically and a fraction of the price of natural ambergris. A little more than anyone cares to know.

Do you close your eyes to the political happenings of the US or the world...not much different now is it? As our society becomes more politically correct, the things that used to be ok are now under attack...next it will be about how cows or chickens are killed...how can you be so rightous?

Now I am pompus ass? How constructive and childish. We do not have to agree, i agree, but you do not need to call names. I find name calling to be in the same catagory as profanity...one uses it because they cannot think of something more brilliant to say...Think hard retard...damn, I must not be any better than you.
