Hyperbole.
So you’d be ok with it if they opened a whale farm?
“So you’d be ok with it if they opened a whale farm?”
Guess so.
Good luck.
Look, there is no VALID reason for killing and eating whales aside from a cultural need to do so on the part of those countries involved. I have no problem with hunting game animals which are not endangered, for food and other purposes. But there simply is no real need on the part of these whaling nations to harvest whales aside from keeping their whaling industry in business and providing grist for strange tastes and material for pet food. We have other sources for that.
If and when whales increase to the point where there is a large population of them, and/or they pose a threat environmentally, fine - harvest them. But there is simply no case for that at this point.
And its NOT hyperbole.
Let them eat beef (or venison, or elk or buffalo, or something similar.)
