Tribe wins major step toward resuming whaling off Washington

[The Jungle 1]

91. Why would you say that.

"I suppose, in your defense of "culture" that you are fine with child marriage and FGM?" Where in the world does that insult come from. That is way out there and a very sick accusation. Circumcision is also genital mutilation. My sons were not mutilated and I try and educate others on my life path. I do not support either type of genital mutilation. I thought we were talking about whales?

Humans are a natural predator! Repeated historical studies have shown this.
However I do agree there were fewer predators. Due to good game management they are on the rebound. Not sure I want grizzles harvesting in my woods. It is also disturbing when Mountain lions harvest joggers. I was also unhappy with the Barracuda that kept stalking me on my last dive. It went on for twenty minutes. Would I be allowed to defend myself under your no slaughter rules. Sharks like the taste of surfers. I guess we just need to stay out of the ocean. Are you also against fish protein? How about bugs? Can I kill the bee that stings me. How about ticks? How about termites.

This is America so you are free to pursue ending the harvesting of animals.

However consider this study:
It's something that plant lovers have long suspected, but now Australian scientists have found evidence that plants really can feel when we're touching them. ***********************

Not only that, but different sensations trigger a cascade of physiological and genetic changes, depending on the stimulation the plants are receiving, whether it's a few drops of rain, or a little soft pat,

Wonder how they "feel" about food processors?

"Unlike animals, plants are unable to run away from harmful conditions. Instead, plants appear to have developed intricate stress defense systems to sense their environment and help them detect danger and respond appropriately," says Van Aken.

All of this information could be essential to plants survival in the wild, the researchers explain in the journal Plant Physiology.

So now what will you eat? Plants are alive! I bet grass hates mowers. Ya know your salad is screaming as you chew and of course I have to go with, at least my meat is dead. Now who is barbaric?
Try not to get mad and attack let's debate.
