| 3,105 | 6:18 am PDT, Oct 13 | Nicholas Schomburg | Plymouth | United States | Whales are intelligent, beautiful mammals who are like us(in a way) They do nothing to harm us and they only love us. Whaling is cruel and unnecessary, and those poor whales can take up to a half an hour to die after being struck by the harpoon! And when being cut up there is still no way to tell if they are dead or alive! You wouldn't want to be in that sort of pain would you?!? So please stop whaling! | |
