Its no different to shooting a bolt through a lambs head or a piglets head to me, its just another thing for the tree huggers to whine about, get a proper fuckin job. If you think its so bad look closer to home and do something about lambs and stuff being killed.
If we were told tomorrow there will be no more killing cows or using them for milk and no more killing sheep, pigs etc etc theyd become extinct. who would keep them ? farmers wouldnt.

Right first off ..... I chose to watch that no one made me granted but that is fucking barbaric !!
I don't see clubbing something to death a humane way to kill.
On the bottom clip he is clubbing one loads and then cuts it open alive FFS nothing deserves to die like that its fucking appaling !! Towards the end of thc lip one of the guys is just playing with it, clubs it leaves it has a kick and a look and then goes back to finish it off in his own time, fucking prick![Wall](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/wall.gif)
I'm no towny puff but as far as I'm concerned its in the same league as fox hunting and s a bunch of sick bastards who enjoy doing shit like that.
No need for that shit.

This is another case of you only getting to see the worst of it. It's the livelyhood of a lot of people, leave them to it.

Why not let seal hunting continue?
Most of our fishermen have lost their job because of declining fish stocks. If the greedy seals ate less there would be more for us!
Maybe we could get spiked shoes for the horses and hounds and send the foxhunters over to join in. The seals don't look very fast.
Instead of moaning about people doing what they've always done, what about a poll on people having more kids than they can afford to support?

I think all the comments made are viable (sp) and when you put things in persepctive people have good points. After posting this I went downstairs and watche dthe news and it was on about Africa and the state of the country FFS there are babies dying there from lack of food .... some things in the world are shitty and suck.
Most people on here have spent thoushands on their cars when there are people dying etc. That's the way of the world though - you just have to realise how lucky you are and thank ... whoever

I dont have a problem with the cull if it needs to be done to protect fishing stocks, but the animals should be killed as humanely as is possible, even if its not as cheap as current methods.
I dont see why they should be made to suffer with things like being cut open when they are alive etc.
Fundamentally ive nothing against clubbing as a way of humanely killing something, ultimately a very large skull impact should result in instant death pretty much, but half doing the job and leaving them to suffer is just so terribley wrong, there is NO need for it.

We are bleeding the oceans dry with our overfishing anyway; fishermen have known this for years. Clubbing seals is only dragging the inevitable out
Totally disagree with killing the seals just to fill our own plates/make a scarf!!
Think the seals have just as much right to the seas as we do, but they are not the only animal in the sea to suffer at the hands of the greedy fishermen![Mad](https://passionford.com/forum/images/smilies/mad.gif)
BTW not watched the film as i have no interest in seeing things like that again, as once you have seen one you have seen them all really

Its for a different kind of demand, seals aren't killed because people choose to eat them or the meat from them.
This is just materialism, where people want to wear the pelts as a garment of clothing. I dont rate it the same.

Seal hunting isn't a new materialistic invention as it seems someone is thinking here. The eskimos have done it for hundreds of years. And why is killing other kinds of animal for their fur more acceptable?
For most of us there might not be a identifiable need for seal products(meat or other), but this might be the livelihood of some people and if that is coorect then there obviously is a market for the products somewhere.
I think we probably all will agree that seal hunting in itself is not a "good" thing, but lets face it, so is a lot of other things that we still accept.
Just remember that it is a lot easier to be negative to something that isn't part of our own culture and that happens far away. Comparable things that happen closer to home, and that is an accepted, or integral, part of our own culture, is not so easy or covenient to be negative towards.

Ben Elton should be along in a minute with some other right-on loveliness.
Don't think me heartless, but I simply amn't very excited about why or how the seals die.

If you think its so bad look closer to home and do something about lambs and stuff being killed.
not exactly needed for the 99.9 % of people though is it,....
the real money from seal culling is the fur,.....if people really need the fur that bad, then buy a fake one,....
carl seal
a no no,......defo something the world could do without,.......
