As long as the Japanese don't threaten a whale species with extinction, what's wrong with hunting whales?

Do whales merit some kind of exception because they're large, or cute, or something?

There are lots of mammals which man hunts. Why shouldn't whales be among them?

I don't get it...

You don’t get it on purpose. Whales are more intelligent than almost any other animal. They should be protected and allegedly are by international law.

The Japanese choose to lie about their purposes and ignore the laws. They pay big money to lawyers and go right on turning thinking, feeling creatures into Japanese poop.

I prefer the whales over the Japanese. I had cousins who were prisoners for three years at Santo Tomas in Manila. They survived but many didn’t.

Whales never starved people to death or shot them for trying to scrounge food for others.
