Thats a fantastic rant .. well done
i fail to see its relevance .. to you posting some vids of dolphins being slaughtered ..
If you had perhaps given your reasoning behind it .. in your intro post .. but nope ..
And now .. you rant in the last 3 posts about this and that .. none of which has anything to do with these dolphins you just posted vids of ..
So where is this going ?
Simple questions .. with such long winded incoherent responses ...
Im bored of this thread now ..
I never even watched the videos .. the sick distasteful title was enough to put me off

Maybe you are missing their point. Your stance isnt concise. Okay so does it outrage you? Why do you need us to sit through those videos? Why is the shock value needed...is it because of an inconcise point being made?
Let me try here: You hate the dolphin hunts, you don't see a need for them and they continue. We in the west must feel outraged by seeing it and disagree with it.
Great, theres a start. Some places do hunt animals we normally don't eat or consider food. What is the motivation behind it? Is it justifiable?
Concise answers to that posters over all question. Ranting is not the same as stating a specific opinion or what you think needs to be done about it.

Unfortunately you werent clear on it. While the videos I have seen are kind of clear, its good to have a complete opinion on it. You never actually stated much other then replies to other peoples opinions on a couple videos posted without an actual opinion in the OP.
Its good to have a concise opening opinion to avoid needless posts asking your view point cluttering up the thread from its intended purpose.

In any case, I understand the point all in all, and there is some looks into dolphin trading and such that we need to look at.
What I can understand is maybe a tribe of people who dont have access to luxuries of our world and don't differentiate between species as food, I can't understand the hunting and killing for a profit because the animal is rare or to serve a luxury want from the client. The same can be said for all our choices for meat, do we really need all those types of animals for food? Personally, nah, I dont think so but we like the variety. Do we set the standards on the values of one animal life over the other? We certainly do.
