I am from Norway, a country of proud oilers, seal hunters and whalers...

I am quite used to the controversy. Do a google search on Odd Lindberg and seal hunting, and you will find an old neighbor of mind.

We chased him out of the country for trying to protect the seal pups.

We are barbarians.

Forgive me for being an obtuse American, but I find no pride to be had in slaughter of these animals.

The rest of the world would seem to agree.

I have visited your country. There are many friendly and nice people there, and the scenery is stunning. I'm sure that not all agree that killing defenseless animals in brutal ways is anything to be "proud" of.

I am from Norway,.....We are barbarians.

Yes you are. You're also a bunch of socialists sucking on North Sea Oil revenue. You don't need seal pelts.
