whaling

it's such a horrible thought, I'm trying to use that to try and get people to understand how I feel about animals being killed, a dog is a cow is a pig is a cat.. animals are esentially the same thing...but scertain societies over time have dictated what to love and what to not, it needs to be broken down

thats how i feel. but over in japan and china they think that they can eat anything

This is why many Asian countries are my least favourite places!

naww they arn't all bad, there are many beautiful and lovely things about asian culture. I think it's japanese society that is largely vegetarian friendly, I think there are provinces  and towns that don't eat meat. every culture has something gruesome about it

I know that americans were shocked to hear that Australians eat Emu and Kangraroo

Yea, we dont live in caveman times, we dont need to kill and eat whales when there is so many other things to eat, better yet we can easily all be vegetarian or vegans in this modern time

There are actually a large number of Japanese people who are opposed to whaling...

Hmmm.. bit sterotypical.
Japan isnt the only nation that hunts whale, nor are they the only nation to eat whale.
Maybe a bit more research is needed? Try googling Faroe Island Dolphin Massacre. Truely barbaric stuff. Happens in Denmark, Not Japan!

I also find it extremely racist to hate on all Asian countries. Look around, cruelty happens everywhere not just Asia.

Even in australia, in some parts of australia they eat different types of animals it disgussed me.

Sorry it dosent make sence  

not much of that is Japan
that is run mainly by China's need for shark fin
abd is major in costa rica and worldwide AND ILLEGAL
