Barbaric, isn't it? |

It's sick... I can't see/read this. |
| Mr.Jingles 31.03.2005 10:03 |
People who defend huntings of this kind claim that hunters do this for a living and they need kill animals support themselves. Drug traffic also brings a profit to those who are inside that kind of business, but yet most governments absolutely condemn it, even though it only kills the fools who chose to buy them. The poor seals just simply have no choice. |

Some people are just absolutely heartless. It's sad that we have to share this world with them. |
| KillerQueen840 31.03.2005 14:30 |
This among several other things disgusts me so much. In writing lab, we have to make a persuasive speech to present, and one of my friends is doing it on this. It is hard to believe all of the cruel people that are out there. |

hey lets start our own hunt,get ur guns,spears,clubs and hunt baby seal hunters, keep the heads as trophies! |
| deleted user 31.03.2005 14:58 |
We shud go there and start a Queen fans against hunting protest! |
| Mr.Jingles 31.03.2005 15:05 |
There's too many morons in this world, like Ted Nugent for instance. The fuckin' idiot has even camps to teach kids how to shoot rifles and hunt. I swear if I ever saw that asshole I'd spit on his ugly ass face, and that only if I have a bit of patience. |
| KillerQueen840 31.03.2005 15:08 |
That would be cool to go start a giant protest. |
| KillerQueen840 31.03.2005 15:12 |
How? |

Well why dont we start the "Queenzone protest group" and make our own petition and show that Queen fans all across the world are united to stop this, send a completed petition off to QOL and try and have Brian and Roger do something about it aswell, try and get them to have there say and put a stop to this, it will also show Queen do not let things like this go on without something being done. |

It's barbaric and sad. What makes me angrier, if NO ONE would BUY fur clothes, or items made from ivory, etc., then there would be NO demand for these nimrods to kill innocent animals to make money, be they seals, elephants, exotic cats, etc. I'm all for Greenpeace and PETA and all animal rights groups and I sign petitions whenever I can. |
| deleted user 02.04.2005 14:00 |
so who can make a petition for Queen fans to make cos i have no idea, if we DO do it would you be able to let me send it off since i thought of that idea, only fair really! (dont think of me as a glory seeker PLEASE!) |
| Mr.Jingles 02.04.2005 14:00 |
I consider some animal right groups like PETA to be a bit extremist. Although they defend a noble cause, they have crossed the line many times. However what people like Donatella Versace, P.Diddy, and Jennifer Lopez do to introduce clothing lines with fur is far worse and absolutely disgusting. |

If people would NOT BUY fur clothes, the asswipe designers would not design fur clothing lines. People who BUY fur clothes, may as well be clubbing the seals themselves abd are in effect as guilty if not MORE guilty than the butchers who do the actual clubbing. And if you all create a Queenzone petition, I will be more than happy to sign it. |

They're no less innocent than the animals you mention (and no less capable of feeling pain), and are just as brutally tortured in the name of greed and gluttony (instead of greed and vanity). The seal hunt doesn't bother me any more than thinking about the millions of animals slaughtered for food every year. It would be extraordinary hypocrisy for the Canadian government to ban the seal hunt, yet continue to subsidise the meat industry. Actually, I take that back. This is a POLITICS we're talking about. And, in the AR field, there already is hypocrisy that companion animals have rights, but farm animals do not...but I'll stop ranting................ |

i sed wot we cud do, make a petetion of all the Queen fans singed and dated then send it off to Brian and Roger, get them to sign it and present it to someone who can stop it, cos it will also increase how popular they become but the people that can puta stop to it will actually listen to Queen and show how much Queen and the Queen fans care! (now i have no idea if that made anysense wotsever) |

| Farlander 03.04.2005 20:34 |
Wow. You people need some serious perspective. |
| StrangeQuark 03.04.2005 20:54 |
I'm a vegan and all for AR, but even I find PETA's tactics a bit much too. And their "science" in regards to nutrition is quite biased and not very thorough. However, in terms of hard-hitting undercover footage exposing animal abuse, no one else has come close (to my knowledge, anyway) to reaching them. Hence my reasoning for referencing their site Anyway... to For taylorgaga and Linda of the Valley and anyone who really have genuine concern for the welfare of animals, there IS something you can do. If you're already doing these things, you can save hundreds of lives in your own lifetime. If you don't, just like Arene said, if you're buying cruelty in the form of fur or meat, you might as well be the one with the club/knife/gun in your hand. These should be rather obvious, but based on the hypocrisy of people I observe every single day, perhaps they aren't as obvious as they appear to me. If you care about animals: 1. Don't eat them. 2. Don't wear their skin (this includes leather) 3. Adopt animals from your local animal shelter/city pound if you can, and make a good home for them. Never buy from a breeder or pet shop, unless they are selling animals on behalf of the animal shelter. 4. Don't buy cosmetics tested on animals. 5. Like taylorgaga suggested, petitions can help raise awareness of specific issues too. But realistically you have the most power as a consumer. There are plenty of other things you can do to show that you are against cruelty to animals. These are the most obvious ones I can think of, but surely you can add to the list... |

Well StrangeQuark, to say the least, we have our history... but I still have to say, I completely applaud your stance here. You seem to be the only fully aware and fully caring person who has posted here on this subject matter. That leaves the question: how many of us can actually do those five things? |
| Sonia Doris 06.04.2005 08:49 |
So, are we doing a Qz protest or not? If yes, where can I sign in? ;) All the images posted here make me sick. Instead of hurting innocent living beings, some important/stupid/not necessary heads should fall off!!! |
| jasen101 08.04.2005 02:52 |
killing animals in a cruel way is disgusting. It's bad enough we kill them to eat them. |

Sir GH<br><h6>ah yeah</h6> wrote: Well StrangeQuark, to say the least, we have our history... but I still have to say, I completely applaud your stance here. You seem to be the only fully aware and fully caring person who has posted here on this subject matter.I'm surprised to hear a response from you... and I appreciate the fact that it was a positive one. I've been holding back from posting on QZ for months, but I figured that now after so long, if I posted once in a while, you could easily choose to ignore my messages if you wished. Hope life is going well for you... but I won't push my luck with writing more than that. Mr.Jingles, I'd only heard of IFAW before... but animal welfare is slightly different than animal rights. Under the "Save Animals" heading, it only includes species that the majority of people would feel comfortable helping. Interesting picture on the front page right now... Violence towards non-human animals and humans going hand-in-hand. Another good link, if anyone's interested... and this one is G-rated. Just some AR questions and well-phrased answers that I find useful in defending my own stances. Someone else might find it useful as well. link |
