First of all, I believe killing animal for food itself is sin. I wish I could be a vegan! But because I am just an average greedy human being, I eat meat.
For me, there is no difference between dolphin and cows. Dolphin, they got beautiful smiles, I heard they are intelligent, they are beautiful and mystical. Hey, cows got very kind eyes too. And look at the cute sheep babies! Man, when I first knew Lamb is a baby sheep meat, I was shocked...but look i still enjoy lamb sausages. For me they are same. There is absolutely no difference between dolphin and cows, and other meats.
So "The Cove" to me was little bit hypocritical & one sided, very white. it's not Americans' business, let Japanese eat dolphin. Why in the hell Americans are traveling all the way to Japan and attacking local fishery? I know dolphin are beautiful so SS can raise money lol. Unfortunately, it's about MONEY and Racism.
Ric warned about Mercury, well...apparently there is no one has died from it in Taiji....and look at US and Australia the 2 biggest meat lover nations in the world, every year 50,000 Americans died of Bowel cancer, 5000 in Australia. Bowel cancer is known to be caused by meat, especially processed meat. For the sake of children in US and Australia, we MUST stop eating meat! We should all go for vegan lol. No, I don't think we can.
Japanese are the most healthiest people on this earth, maybe Anti-whaling activists should worry about their own countries, not Japan.
Director Yagi did great job. She made a point. It's a matter of racism, religion, hypocritical idea of justice...and money. "The Cove" portraits the small Japanese town Taiji as a Bloody Dolphin Killer town, which was not fair for the Japanese. Once again, Director Yagi did wonderful job to speak up Japanese side of story. We must watch both movies and judge who can judge what Japanese should eat and should not eat.
