READ THIS FIRST

Welcome to my blog. I had an academic obligation to write every now and then in 2010, but now there's no more pressure, so it'll be much harder to get myself to to write regularly.

On the right are navigation links.
Home is pretty self-explanatory. Fiction is a page dedicated to narrative passages that I write, fiction or not.

Whaling by Japanese whaling ships

I believe that most people are aware of whaling by Japanese ships. The whaling is labelled as "research" by whaling companies when in fact, once a whale is killed, only its diet and birth date is analysed from the remains then the meat is packaged and sold. So much for "research". I believe that action should be taken on the whalers. However, violence should not be used unless it is very necessary. For example, a Japanese whaling ship that ignores warnings from a military vessel or aircraft can be fired upoun. Also, I do not think we should "flame" or slander other people because this will just aggravate the situation until there are insults flying all over the place and nobody is bothering to listen to anyone else anymore. The best course of action to take is probably to try to solve the problem diplomatically. Why bother trying desperately to find excuses to use destructive weapons while we don't have to?

I will continue to investigate this topic. My sincere apologies if I jumped to conclusions. Please comment. Thanks!
