U.S. Senate Resolution Calls For End To Inhumane Canadian Seal Hunt

Aye, save the baby seals, let the civilians die. They really need every distraction they can, don't they?

I would just *love* to see the Canadian retaliate by asking the US to withdraw from Aghanistan and Irak.


THEY SAY:

"The clubbing of baby seals cannot be defended or justified," said Sen. Levin. "Canada should end it, just as we ended the commercial Alaska seal hunt more than 20 years ago."

"This hunt is cruel and the Canadian government's own regulations regarding humane killing are not respected or enforced"


ANSWER:

"The killing, raping or looting of Irakis cannot be defended or justified," said Prime Minister Stephen Harper. "The US should end it, just as cilivilised people stopped wars of agression for profit quite some time ago."

"This war is cruel and the US government's own regulations regarding humane treatment of civilian populations are not respected or enforced."



Hey, we can always dream, right?

"U.S. Senate Resolution Calls for End to Inhumane Canadian Seal Hunt"

These wackojobs in the US senate seem to be goading us into organizing a lynch mob. What a bunch of assholes! Sorry but that's the nicest way I could put it, and I'm being far too kind as it is.

As Wolf points out, the hypocrisy is like a slap in the face (or more like a good beating) when the deaths of a few seals for profit are given a far higher moral priority over the for profit maiming, suffering, enslavement, and killing of thousands of fellow human beings.

A perhaps not so imaginary conversation between 2 US senators:

"Yep Bubba, we'll sure enough save those poor baby seals. What are those Canadians thinkin' anyways?

I don't know Earl, but we still have the Homeless Bill to consider.

The Homeless? Hell they don't even vote. F*ck 'em."

The two most common things in the universe are apparently Hydrogen and stupidity.

The slaughter of ALL mammals has to stop. Including humans and seals. Canada nor the USA can justify the practices.

Expect little from life and get more from it.

I can agree with that, I was just pointing out the glaring irony and hypocrisy behind this situation.

Or, more like,

'Geez, if I come out against this Iraq war, the media is gonna call me unpatriotic! I'll be lynched by my own state!'

'We could get people on side with these cute baby seals, though. Just look at em! All furry and white, the media would HAVE to back us up on this!'

'Good plan! Maybe in the GOP, you could float a kinda, 'Baby Jezus luvs the Baby Seals!' campaign!

“The war is not meant to be won, it is meant to be continuous, the essential act of warfare is the destruction of the produce of human labour”

I'm all for slaughtering mammals that cook up real nice on the bbq, but not those baby seals. That's just sick and mean. An Inuit hunter should be free to carve up it's mother though, that's a lot of good meat and part of their cultural diet.
