Even off-topic, I wonder if this qualifies more as an appeal/ad type of post, rather than a commentary of some kind?

I agree RG. Or maybe spam?

How can you regard this post as spam? It's an important issue. Something that has been going on for years and needs to be stopped.

It seems to me that if the true concern is to stop seal hunting and expose those companies who practice it, that one would not be required to sign a pledge in order to receive the names of the fishing companies who partake in it, in order to "have the power" to stop it.
Perhaps not spam, but a solicitation. (That's what spam is tho, isn't it?) sarah |

Of all the things to try and rally support for on the planet right now I really don't think this is the wisest one to start with. Global warming will put an end to the seal hunt anyway. Or Haarp, or oil drilling. There are more then enough human beings getting clubbed to death around the world for us to worry about.

So what's the OTHER side of the story?
Humans have been killing and using animals for our benefit in various ways since the beginning of time. Is this something that just started in the last few decades, or have these seals been hunted and killed since people have populated these areas? Sounds very PETA-ish to me. (By the way, I had veal for dinner tonight -- baby cow for those who don't know.) Do we want to open the forum up to every controversial favorite cause that spins someone's beanie propeller, and just turn this into one nasty, controversial, conflict ridden forum? What's YOUR favorite cause? Against abortion? Why, let's appeal to the members to stop forever this killing of baby humans! The 2007 abortion season is already under way! Or are you FOR abortion? Let's stop those right wing, extremist, radical, jack-booted oppressors of women's rights. The 2007 anti-abortion protesting season is already under way! See what I mean? Let's just keep it light and easy. Let's keep
