I put this up in another category but more eyes need to see this.

I came across an article in yesterday's newspaper.
there is a terrible tradition in Japan - the Dolphin Drive "in which thousands of bottlenose dolphins are herded into shallow coves to be slaughtered with knives and clubs" some of which are very slow, sickening deaths. I saw a couple of YouTube videos and it's terrible the way the intelligent, gentle creatures are mercilessly slaughtered.
Already 15-16,000 have been killed this year and as many as 21,000 are going to perish. We need to help these mammals. There is a petition at www.actfordolphins.org and their goal is 1 million signatures. Last I checked there was 71,000+
Let's help those without a voice

I think this would be a heck of a pay-per-view special, but I hope one of the networks would pick it up.

"Saddam's Execution...brought to you by Slickman's Life Insurance. Slickman's: Because we all have to go sometime."

Seriously though, wouldn't it be much more of a deterrent if we saw the actual death take place?

Hitler once wrote off Einstein as "jewish science"...but fundemental science has a way of being non-discriminate. Either conserverative or liberal, you can't evade the laws that govern the physical universe.

This isn't some nutcase left wing ideology...we are approaching the end of the world as we know it. At current levels, by the year 2048, it is predicted the oceans will be dead(not dried up), but one vast cesspool...which currently produces 80% of our oxygen.

Remember the "nutcase" who figured out what freon does to the ozone layer? LOT's of people said he was crazy to even suggest that...until NASA sat's took a good look, and the physical evidence matched the model to a T.

Science...who needs science! All these studies are based on someone who has a hidden agenda...does it serve us all, or provide window dressing for entities which choose to look away.

Any thoughts?

Do you think a black comedian,lashing out at a white heckler ,using terms like "honkey" "cracker" or " white devil" would create the same outrage as the Richards thing? Would it even be news?

Given the bizarre antics of OJ Simpson and his confession, have his supporters in black America given a collective slap to their foreheads and belatedly admitted they were rooting 10 years ago for a vicious killer?

Ignorant people can't see that blacks can be just as racist as whites can be. This Professor from NC State University called for "the EXTERMINATION of White People" on Oct. 14th http://www.wnd.com/news/article.asp?ARTICLE_ID=46973 Read the article.

Listen to Chris Rock's standup. Tell me he's not racist. Listen to mostly any rap. Tell me they don't promote hate. Go to a ghetto school like I do (and did all during grade school) and tell me that blacks aren't racist. People who think this are idiots.

Just curious if there are any websites out there that has a listing of great deals and sales that will be offered on Black Friday.

Also, on that note, do deals on Black Friday apply to online retailers too?

Thanks.

British troops have been given warning against approaching American convoys because of the risk of being shot at. They are ordered to slow down to a snail’s pace as they pull alongside a convoy. They are told to display the Union Jack and shout that they are British.

A British officer in Basra said: “The Americans can be pretty pumped-up. Sometimes they fire in broad daylight when we are travelling at two miles per hour, shouting that we are British out of the window and waving the Union Jack. If they shoot, our drill is to slam on the brakes and race in the opposite direction.”

This does not apply to UK muslims who are loyal and respect this country's values, culture and way of life. But the 120,000(mainly pakistanis & bangladeshis) who tacitly support and condone attacks on the UK and UK interests abroad (according to MI5), and the larger number who wont mix with british people, learn english or accept our values and freedoms....why the hell dont they leave?? Arent they hypocrites??
Perhaps because they know this country offers far more in every respect than the backward countries they come from?
