		<description>The Japanese claim to be killing the whales for science.  Then they eat the meat. But since most Japanese don&#039;t like whale meat they feed it to their children in schools. 

But here&#039;s the thing. Whale meat today is full of mercury, DDT, DDE, PCB&#039;s and other toxins. It&#039;s so bad that the USDA wouldn&#039;t allow it to be sold in the US.  So a diet of whale meat may have some untended consequences. Or is the experiment &quot;What will happen first? The whales become extinct or our children suffer brain damage and endocrine disfunction?&quot;

The real reason the Japanese are hunting whales must be some primitive urge to prove how tough and macho they are.  They never got over losing World War II.  They were allied to the Nazis, and they belonged together. The Japanese Whale &quot;scientists&quot; are like Nazi doctors experimenting on Jews, Gypsies and other people; trying to figure out how quickly men could be castrated and women could be sterilized, and whether or not certain bones were necessary.

		<description>So I&#039;ve been watching whale wars on discovery lately. I would love to have the opportunity to join them in their fight!  When it comes to throwin the tear gas onto the japs ship, all I can say is BUDK.com!!! Just pick up a fully auto pellet gun (shoots non-lethal yellow balls), an pick off those jap fu$@ers on their water cannons. Or how bout some covert plastic explosives on the hulls of those  whaling ships while they&#039;re at port. Cmon, our government has done plenty of things in the past that they would never publicly admit to. Unfortunately most just see it as a bunch of dumb marine animals being put to good use, amazing how powerful greed can be. I guess those slanted eyes prevents those jap f&amp;@ks from seeing the big picture. You know, that whole precious life thing, or maybe the effect on the environment thing. But who cares right? It&#039;s just our planet, no big deal right? So how is it japs are stereotyped to be so intelligent? Sure they do complex algebraic equations in middleschool. Book smarts are useless if you&#039;re completely ignorant when it comes to common sense. Keep it up discovery! Go sea sheppards! F&amp;@k the greedy japs!</description>

		<description>As I am typing this comment I am watching Whale Wars and for the 1st time in History they have caught there first whale in front of the Sea Sheppards. This is just horrifying in just absolute disbelief, I am a real animal lover and grew up on a farm and I love all animals. I honestly ( DO NOT) think they are killing whales for scientific research. Something must be done !!</description>

		<description>Who the hell cares who&#039;s doing what!!!!! It&#039;s sickening what the Japanese are doing to one of the most majestic animals on this planet. Someone needs to catch and torture them and make them suffer the way they are making those whales suffer, and for what? Research (ya right) give me a break. The Japanese have no regard for human life let alone the lives of animals. All they care about is money. I have family that spent time in Japan and they are very cold, greedy people!!!! 
Austin your a complete idiot....how many whales do you have to slaughter in one day for research. There is nothing humane about the way they are even slaughtering them. Some people are so ignorant. 
Kobun (or whatever the hell your name is) all I have to say to you is, Hiroshima was too kind to a bunch of subhumans that have such little regard for life.
These animals are one of the few gentle giants on this planet that post no threat to humans what-so-ever.  Which is probably why a bunch of little yellow cowards are attacking them. 
Greed is one of the worst deadly sins and I find some comfort in knowing that this garbage may not pay in this life but they will pay. 
 Glory to  Gods angels on the Sea Shepard and any other organization trying to stop this madness.  I&#039;m with the idea of bombing whaling ships. It wouldn&#039;t be the first time we bombed the filthy Japanese and I&#039;m not against the idea of it not being the last. Get some damn humanity trash Japs!!!!!!!!!</description>

		<description>Can anyone PROVE the actions by the Japanese are illegal.  These charges by the Eco-Terrorists are completly hollow.  Would it be better if the Japanese dumped the whales back into the ocean after they get their research sounds like a waste to me.  Is whale meat good to eat maybe as BBQ.</description>
