This is another example of the cultural and intellectual maturity of the Euros that my European mate cited to me. It's also the type of behaviour, figuratively, that the American liberal strives to emulate.

The french set the standard by which these islanders are behaving. There is a moral rot in Western Europe and most of the colonies that they held into the 20th century that there is no cure for other than the eventual establishment of Islamic Republics in thoise regions. Good riddance to all of them.

Was it not the French secret service that plotted to blow up that Greenpeace boat so it would stop protesting their nuclear tests in the South Pacific?

I don't really have a particular "brand" of music I like. I like different music from all genres. There are songs in any category (Rock, R & B, Pop, Country etc) that I like. I don’t get obsesses with any bands or type of music. I probably listen to Jimmy Hendrix the most.

There are a few bands I just can’t stand. It is like nails on a chalkboard for me. I don’t know why. Could be some subconscious psychological scarring. Here are some of the more prominent bands in that category.

1) John Cougar Mellancamp
2) Huey Lewis and the News - (Huey Lewis seems like a nice guy but for some reason I just can’t stand his music)
3) Bruce Springsteen – same as above
4) Bob Dylan (I don’t mind his music when other people play it)
5) Neil Young (again I don’t mind his music when other people play it)
6) Motley Crue
7) Puff Daddy
8) Marilyn Manson (crazy enough, I met him when I worked in LA and he was one of the nicest, most intelligent people I met in that town. After meeting him I tried to keep an open mind. But just don’t like it)
9) Prince
10) A few more I can’t think of….

???????

This should be obvious but I am just going to state it for the record. I don't know if people are just being stupid, trying to be funny or what but here goes:

I don't like when the Japanese hold those festivals where the whole village goes out and bludgeons dophins to death.

I don't like it when people use live puppies and kittens as shark bate.

I didn't like it when the French tried to blow up a Greenpeace boat in dock in New Zealand, especially because they did it when people were on it.

I find different cultures interesting. But I never have and probably never will understand why the concept of culture can be used as an excuse to do something immoral or wrong. When I look at what people are doing, and trying to decide if it is right or wrong, immoral or moral, I could care less what the cultural norms are. The two are not related as far as I am concerned.

What about when cute cows have to watch other cute cows get bolts through their heads and/or the cute cows don't quite die and end up starting to get skinned while still alive?

What about rodents that get eaten alive by snakes? What about the mice and squirrels and birds that you let your cats kill? I mean, shit, sharks like puppies and kittens, and I am not so sure they will eat stuff that is already dead.

The Europeans and most of the world's left wing have no concepts of "right" or "wrong" or "moral" or immoral", everything is morally relative. The Clintons tried to enforce that twisted concept in America as a first step to communism. Thankfully the American people rejected its emptyness and impeached him instead.

My favorite part about that book was the kids crazy cousins. Especially the parts where they went skiing and when they first met Owen Meany. If I had been in charge of the movie the cousins would have been in almost every scene instead of being left out altogether.

I would prefer it if they used a system to insure that the cows died so they would not go through unecessary pain.

Man can't interfere with the natural process of nature. It just wouldn't work. All he can do is try and control how he acts and treats other beings. Why can't they use fish as Shark Bait? And yes, before you ask, I am more concerned about about puppies and kittens than I care about fish. Something to do with more complicated brains etc.

This of course, gets a lot more involved, but seems painfully obvious to me, and I find it hard to believe that I have to explain it to you.

Well, displaying search results by post and the humor in my response to your ambiguous post seemed painfully obvious to me -- we are obviously not at the mindmeld stage of our relationship.

You think that the bolts through the heads and the skinning alive are the natural processes of nature? I find this confusing. Or is this just convenient for you, so you are less worried about it than something that has no effect on you because it is far far away?

The sharks are probably more attracted to the puppies or whatever because they thrash around. And the taste is new. So it is probably more efficient to use puppies than to use fish, which are fairly calm when in water.

People feed their pet snakes live rodents, and you don't have a problem with this? Your cats have perfectly good cat food and only really catch the rodents and birds for sport, plus they probably get parasites and shit from them, and you don't have a problem with this? But you are worried about excess puppies off in the middle of nowhere? Would you prefer they starved to death?

What makes you think your life is so much more valuable than the millsions of cows that will likely die as a result of your wanton full figured approach to stuffing your face without thought/ Those cows are terrified when they are dragged to their brutal deaths.

Specially bred cows are not part of the natural ecosystem.

I am sure something else could be found to thrash. I have seen many a show about Shark hunting and this is the first time I have heard about puppies and kittens. I think it is pretty clear that using them is not necessary.
