Stop Whining.
That photo is 'shopped, so? It doesn't make it any less real. If someone's tried to make a point a little more obvious to the ignorant masses by 'shopping a pic, does it matter?
Clearly the 'softly softly' approach isn't working.

Look, I might consider your (lack of) point if you are a complete vegetarian and do not use any products that somehow are connected with the death of animals (still, it would be idiotic), as long as you don't it is just hypocritical...why is hunting seals worse than hunting deer..than slaughtering a cow?

I'm not a vegetarian, but the way seals are killed is barbaric. Unnecessary, don't you think? Do you condone the way they're killed or are you just arguing for argument's sake?

No. You just think because the weapon they are killed with are clubs it has to be inhumane? That is idiotic. It is hunting, obviously it will not be fun for the prey.
From Wikipedia:
"According to recent studies done by the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association (CVMA), the hakapik, when used properly, kills the animal relatively quickly and painlessly. Several American studies carried out from 1969-1972 in the Pribilof Islands of Alaska came to the same conclusion"
Now, i don't know if that is reliable, but it goes with what I imagine to be true.
So, it is unnecessary? What more humane way do you suggest? Shooting them? Hmm, they could slowly suffocate or bleed to death because of it. Probably less humane than clubbing...what other ways do you suppose would be acceptable?

You are an idiot who knows jack shit about anything and bases all your posts here on stupid assumptions.
You are the one saying that killing seals is uncivilised yet say you would put someone in the hospital for doing it. Doesn't this seem hypocritical to you at all? How dare you say that people are inferior to you for disagreeing with your misguided and uninformed outrage when you make such statements like that?
Silver_tears pointed out that this isn't a sport and never was. You of course completely ignored that post she made, because it would demolish your sense of being right.
You then resort to personal attacks when you find that there are people who don't agree with you.
You ignore me pointing out the fact that if it weren't for a stupid myspace bulletin that you would not even know about this, at all, and that no one with any sort of common sense and intelligence would place ANY credibility in a myspace bulletin.
Why don't you try doing some research, and shutting up until then.
