Hi,

www.whalesrevenge.com is trying to get a million people to sign a petition to stop whaling.

If you could tell as many people as you can about our website, that would be a great help.

Thanks for your support and remember to sign the petition.

As long as the International Whaling Commission exists, petitions are pointless. If there is no political pressure for change in Japan, then nothing else done anywhere else will matter not a jot.

Dude - you're a newb, and your first effort at participating is to harp on about the whales?

Damn, I thought this was a "NO FAT CHICKS" thread!

BAD poster number one... BAAAAAD! :spanking:

Just for that, I'm ordering me a blubber burger, hell make it two!

And someone answer me this - what the hell do we need whales FOR anyway?

What the hell do they DO, apart from start international spats when they are stupid enough to get in front of a valid Japanese scientific research vessel?

I agree that something needs to happen

However.....

You can help us by coming to the Cheesecutter ride in Taupo on Tuesday
This can help save thousands of motorcyclists if we can ban them :)

Cheers for the link too :niceone:

Whales are obsolete...

... and they take up oxygen and put out methane and carbondioxide as well.

Nuke the whales and we might be able to ride for a couple of more years.

So these two whales, male and female, are swimming happily through the
ocean when they come upon a boat. On seeing the boat, the male says,
"Hey, I've got a great idea! Let's swim up under that boat and blow
out really hard through our blowholes!"

The female says, "Oh, I don't know..."

"Come on, it'll be fun, come on, just this once!"

The female agrees and they swim up under the boat and blow out,
capsizing the boat and sending hapless sailors into the briny blue.
As they are swimming away, the male says, "Wow, that was fun, wasn't
it? Hey! I've got another idea! Let's swim back there and eat all
the sailors!"

To which the female, exasperated, replies, "Look, I agreed to the
blow job, but I'm not swallowing any seamen."

I wish i'd slated you both when you joined. So to make up for it i'm going to hound you constantly like the noobs & idjiots you both are.

You say you're bikers but you both ride mopeds.... how about you go buy some balls then come back to the bikers site when you have the tackle to play!

What do you mean by "tackle to play"? I haven't heard that expression before. Besides I thought you had done me the favour of adding me to your ignore list - guess no luck on that part then. :whocares:

Stop putting words in my mouth - I never said I was a biker, I just have a license and enjoy riding a motorcycle I prefer not to categorise myself. :calm:

Oh, I wouldn't have needed a license if I had a moped would I now? But I'm sure you were just trying to poke fun at smaller bikes - that's ok. After all it's fun to mock small things, wouldn't you agree? :rockon:

Different cultures have different views.

For some reason we think the whale is special. The japs don't agree.
On the other hand, in parts of india, the cow is special. We don't agree.

Simply trying to force our views down other peoples throats is unlikely to win much support.

We can however logically argue that any species should be protected, if harvesting them risks their annihilation.

Of course, once stocks build back up, they go right back on the dinner menu !

:rofl:

Greenpeace New Zealand's "name a whale competition" has been sabotaged, with 73 per cent of the votes favouring the name Mr Splashy Pants. The Greenpeace blog claims someone in Arizona found a way around their "one vote per person" rule and set their mouse on an auto-pilot-click-frenzy for "Mr Splashy Pants". The votes from this ISP address have been disallowed but thanks to social bookmarking site Reddit and top international site Boingboing, who have posted the story, the MSP fan base has grown legitimately. The competition is part of Greenpeace's Great Whale Trail, a tagging and tracking exercise for humpback whales in the South Pacific.

instead of 1 million people each person signing a petition, give a $1 coin to Paul Watson and the Robert Hunter - I'm sure $1mil. in donations to the only organisation that is prepared to stick their necks on the line would be much more appreciated than meaningless international petitions. It is the only organisation that I donate to.

The reality is, the japs only understand submission by force. It is ingrained to their culture (take the martial arts for example), and they have proven through countless conflicts with the chinese and other nations that they have a scary potential to stoop to unspeakable violence to effect their means. The 'icing on the cake' was Hiroshima/Nagasaki, when it was only then that they understood the true meaning of international pressure. Since then though, I cannot think of a single occasion that they have succummed to international pressure to stop anything. This was clearly demonstrated by the recent attendance of international 'celebrities' at the dolphin killing episode in Japan, where the protestors/observers were arrested and forcibly prevented from watching.

I predict this season will be different to the others - I believe we will see a ship being sunk in the southern waters. This will result from the sheer arrogance of the japs when they hunt and kill the supposed albino humpback

I'm being serious here, I'm all for whaling. They're not being hunted out in large enough numbers to wipe out the population -- and seeing as they're so valued, they'd be fucking stupid to do so. In NZ we've worked out that overfishing might give us good short term profits, but will wipe out the industry in the long term. The Japanese are smart bastards (well, I'll forgive them for the CB250RS's cylinder head), I'm sure they understand the same concept. The Icelandics are quite good with their sustainable whaling practices.

The comparison with eating cows made above is apt. Why should the Japanese and Icelandics give a shit because a bunch of hippies in NZ think whales are sacred and some kind of über-mammal? I certainly don't care what a bunch of rabid Hindus a few thousand miles away on the sub-continent think, I'm not stopping the occasional indulgence in Burger Wisconsin's finest -- and neither should the Japs/'Slandics pay any attention to us.

Interfering over-inflated greenie cocks can shut the fuck up.

Whaling is bullshit.
Whales are not like cows and able to be farmed and managed in correct numbers. Japs have no clue as to how many whales are out there. You cant count something that lives like that. Its not til they cant catch any more that they realise that they have done damage. They are hungry bastards.

Particularly if you're the government of a land-locked African nation, or a third-world country whose principles can be bought by a large "aid" package from Japan. Or both. The IWC works on a one-country-one-vote system i.e. Nauru's vote is equal to the United States'.

How do you mean they don't know how many whales are out there? So where does IWC and Greenpeace get their numbers from?

What's the difference between managing whale stocks and managing fishing stocks? You can shove your sentimentality and Western condescension up your arse.

Since when did opinions on whales/whaling have any bearing on ones ability to ride a motorbike of any size/shape?

If I have offended you, or anyone for that matter, well tough shit - my thoughts and opinions are as valid as anyones, and until Big Brother educates me otherwise, I'll continue to exercise that right.

Saving the whales from extinction may be a reasonable idea. But is it the most pressing issue in our imperfect world? Personally I think that while there is an ongoing genocide of fellow human beings (http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/the-world-continues-to-look-away-dont/2007/11/23/1195753310737.html), using up resources to provide welfare for animals (just because they are cuddly), instead of working on saving lives of human beings, reeks of hypocrisy.
Your red rep is welcome, but you have to face the truth: the king is naked.
