    Re: Horrible dolphin video

    Don't get me wrong, what I really object to, is the fact that they try to convince people by appealing to emotions. As far as I'm concerned, it's still a logical fallacy.

    Then again, people often accuse me of not taking sides.

    Re: Horrible dolphin video

    I'm not so much as against killing dolphins, don't think I ever ate it, but I've eaten quite a lot of animals that other people haven't and will never do (but that's another thread) .It's just the way it was done in the movie. I disliked 2 things in it:

    1) the use of sonars is very effective, but kills whole families. It should be more random, because now you kill the diversity.

    2) cutting down their throat and waiting till they sufficate ... Why letting an animal suffer more than needed? It's the same as the slaughterhouses used to be, but now they try to use effective techniques that are quick. This might even not work all the time, but still diminishes that chance that they suffer for a long period before they die. In my opinion they are slaughtered because we want something nice on our plates, but the animals should suffer as less as possible.
