To oppose whaling is to encourage genocide.
That is a bizarre statement. I think you are talking about Eskimos, but this is a thread about Japanese COMMERCIAL whaling.
As stated by another FReeper who lives in Japan. Most Japanese don't eat whale meat and its popularity is decreasing significantly.
I don't recall even the most radical FReepers on this subject screaming about burning down an igloo.
There are no populations below 60 degrees latitude that rely on whale meat.
Please educate yourself before posting, you lower the IQ of the website with a statement like that.
I am surprised you have no idea of the various groups that inhabit Japan.
Well, maybe not surprised ~ you lived there. You did DNA tests all over the place; learned the "Devil Language" and maybe even figured out how to count to 10 ~ but it would appear you know nothing. Someday read your notes.
But, some Japanese, Sa'ami and Eskimo aren't the ONLY groups to have had to subsist on whale and seal for thousands of years at a time.
And yes, you are encouraging genocide.
You are stating that Japanese citizens must eat whale meat in order to physically survive. That is an insane statement.
I would recommend that you immediately call 911 and ask to be put in a psych ward, in the 10 years I've been posting on this website you are the most illogical, insane person I have ever come across.
Not everybody in Japan needs to eat whalemeat. In fact, no one needs to eat it, but there are who need it, and if the Japanese have it available for sale, that'll take care of that.
However, your advocacy of genocide of very small, far away and little understood minorities is not at all anything to recommend you to polite society. It's still genocide.
