If Dolphins were ugly, would we eat them?

[gonelifting]

We catch una buy the ton in those huge nets but don`t even think about getting a dolphin caught in one of those nets.

Don`t give me "they`re very smart" deal either. If they were so smart, they would`nt get caught in the nets.

Chances are if you've had a can of tuna.....you've tasted Flipper.

 

[WODIN]

Dolphin's are yummy. They're the pork of the ocean! LOL!!

I am not anti-dolphin but I think they're overrated. People seem horrified when I say that....like I wish them all to be dead.

You ghastly woman! How could you say that!?

 

[gonelifting]

Yeah, Things should`nt be jusdged on how "pretty" or "cute" they look. I say if it has protein, Kill it and eat it.

You guys realize there are more types of dolphin, right?

I catch and eat dolphin all the time in Florida

They are helpful in the water, many times I have felt secure surfing while dolphins are around, they know why I am out there in the liquid and know I respect them and their world. When the surf is flat I train by paddling for distance and against the current, many times on a full out paddle from jetty to jetty I have seen dophins swimming about 20 ft away, when I turn to go back they do as well, I don't eat any seafood whatsoever.

Dolphins have taken care of and guided people for years, maybe it is not the dolphins intelligence that is overrated but our own.

For more information on dolphins check out this. Check out the link for "dolphin child therapy". Here is just part of what they say about dolphins working with children.

.......
Although the sessions are under a trainer's guidance, we have often seen our dolphins innately change their style or actions when interacting with people in the Special Needs Program. Dolphins seem to be able to differentiate a person's needs and treat them accordingly. There are many stories which illustrate the dolphins' ability to use their echolocation to pick up physical differences such as a metal plate or a healed bone........

We have so much other shit to eat... lets leave the dolphins out of this.

If you have to kill a dolphin to save a starving child or something go ahead... but if you want to kill some to have another entree option at a restaurant you're a douche bag.

I have a video of dolphins surfing the waves in a coral reef somewhere I think it was Australia or something... It`s in a DVD about Ocean life.

Does this mindset affect your taste in women

 

[JuicePimp]

I think its kind of for the same reason we dont eat dogs and cats.

Hey, I`m not prejudice. Some of my best friends are dolphins.

I wish I could have a dolphin as a pet, that would be cool. I'd call him Dolph, and I could ride on his back like he was a jetski. We could play in the surf and charge at surfers, knocking them off their boards right before a good wave comes through.

Man, I miss Dolph already...

 

[FISHTALES]

how about some fresh Florida manatee...

We'd probably eat them if they weren't trainable. Hence, if they were stupid, they'd be dinner.

For the record, Mahi Mahi is fish, not dolphin.

LOL @ overrated. You obviously haven't watched flipper.

Flipper is reason enough to start eating them. I'm kinda like Raina. They are definitely overrated. I still like them and hell, I would probably swim with the dolphins if I could. I always liked Darwin on that show Seaquest. They are cute and all that, but they are NOT God's gift to the ocean.
