Got this emailed to me earlier this week, the unbeleivable irony was that it had previously been forwarded by some bloke who runs a deep sea game fishing charter boat - "Bloody Japs, what they're doing is disgusting, harming these poor innocent animals! oh hang on a sec I've got to go and gaff a marlin that some rich prick has been winding in for the past 2 hours".

It's bad, but no worse than what goes on in abatoirs, slaughterhouses and fishing trawlers all over this country. People should be petitioning against the poor treatment of all animals by all people, not just making it a racist rant against the evil 'Japs' while sitting there muching away on their snags and steaks.

I dont reckon that animals in australias industry would be executed and left to suffer in the fashion depicted in that picture.

As an avid meat eater (the animal kind), I have no problem with people killing animals for food. As long as it is humane.

I know abbatoir's are not the most pleasant places, but what the Japs are doing is fcuking barbaric. I believe they do the same thing in some icelandic countries. Round them up the same way.

The warehouse scene in that vid almost made me puke. It is very sad indeed. There must be a better way of doing these things.

Yeah I won't be forgetting it anytime soon, I think we are so lucky as surfers and little things like this brings life into perspective and makes you appreciate how beautiful the world around us is!

It is pretty disturbing but you're right it's nothing new.

I'll never forget some of the abbattoirs I saw O/S in 3rd world countries. That sh.it will give you nightmares.

If its the one i saw on Foriegn Correspondant a couple o years ago, i cannot watch it. Still remember the images in my head and trying to forget them, like the guy at the night club who accidently forgot to zip up and his slong was hanging out. Bad medicine. :cry:

If it's as bad as you all say it is i can't watch it and i won't.

I still have nightmares from whaling :arrow: true fact :cry:

Plus the images in Nat Geo on elephant poaching (it was a photo with the elephants head cut off and left for dead) is enough tragedy for my week.

It's sad to think some of you have said "yeah it's bad but it's nothing new" or words to that effect. We are slowly becoming conditioned to the fact that animals being massacred is just another one to add to the tally of human desctruction.

end of my hippie rant :oops: :cry:

All animals eat &/or are eaten, fact. We forget living in suburbia that we also are part of the food chain. Funny how only small numbers of people jump to the defence of sharks and snakes, but lots make a noise when the warm fuzzy type feeling animals that are in the spot light.
Didn't watch the video am no Godammned hippy, but reckon it's wrong (this includes Tiger Penis too)

It's not a case of eat or be eaten.

It's a case of genuine need v greed.Do we really need to eat whales for meat when they are an endangered species? Do we really need to eat shark fin soup?

I am not talking about indigenous populations here.I am talking about exploitation of animals to boost the profits of companies even when it leans towards illegal practices.And further to this, killing animals in the worst possible way -e.g chopping their head off for a set of tusks that will get the poacher a couple bags of millet and some salt and leaving the body to bleed to death.Hell noone gives a damn whether it is ethical or not anymore.

God damn i havn't had anyone argue with me on realsurf in a long time, so hopefully that will start something.

I'm practically 100% vegetarian.

The only meat I mostly eat these days in Kangaroo. Better for you than beef, high in protein and iron, low in fat and being a native species and not endangered it makes sense to eat it in Australia as they don't damage the environment nor require all the drugs, steroids and hormones that cows, sheep, chickens etc... need.
