Administration arresting chefs for serving politically incorrect food

As Hillary wrote, it takes a village to raise a child. Well it takes a whale to feed a village.

Yeah but once they die out, so does the village.

after all if these whalers are so into becuase it's traditional (one excuse the Japanese have used) they should be doing it the traditional way - not in big ships in the Great Southern Ocean.

Right, they should do it with hand-chucked harpoons from open boats like their great-great-grandpas did! At least give the whales a sporting chance.

If it weren't for people like you two, we'd still have unicorns.

...and the Easter Bunny, Father Christmas and Jesus. All turned into sushi. It's a bloody shame.

It's the work of the evil lord Xenu if you ask me.....

Aw, quit your blubbering.

Better yet - they should have to do it without standing up!

That would make them "sit Asians".

But the whales aren't dying out. The endangered Sei whale that was served in the restaurant weighs 45 tons and they number over 54,000. That's enough whale for each and every person in the US to get 15 pounds of whale meat just from Seis.

The two dinners probably didn't get a half pound between them, and based on endangered species sushi restaurant prices probably paid $50.00 each. That means that just one species of whale on the fin is worth over $970 billion dollars, almost enough to pay for Obama's health care plan.

Toss in the other endangered whales and you must be looking at 5 to 20 trillion dollars and 500 to 1000 pounds of whale meat per US citizen, many of whom are starving because of the Obama administration's stance against the unlimited harvesting of endangered whales.

As for Santa Monica, have you seen how thin the people there are? That comes from lack of sufficient nutritious whale meat in the diet, not from hyperkinetic roller blading.

Unless the apocalypse comes there's pretty much nothing that would make me want to live in the 1800s.

Well, back then, nobody had any sense of "political correctness". That alone made it a much better time.

Yeah, who would want to deal with political correctness of today when you could have the racism of the 1800s? Things were so much better back then.

If it was the 1800s, I'd probably be sleeping on a smallpox-infested blanket 'donated' by the US Govt, if not shot outright and killed.

No thanks.

Re: Administration arresting chefs for serving politically incorrect f

Eating endangered species may be the best thing you can do to save it. Create demand. Someone will make it their business to ensure steady supply.

How did that work for the dodo?

Re: Administration arresting chefs for serving politically incorrect f

Dodo meat wasn't exactly a first-resort sort of food.

I blame Fred Flintstone for the extinction of the Brontosaurus. Have you seen the size of those ribs?

Yeah they did; they just didn't call it political correctness.

Go back early enough into 1800s U.S., and it's buffalo steaks every night. Why not? There are so many out there. They're so densely packed you can almost walk across the plains on their backs and never touch the ground. And they's sooooo tasty! Go ahead. Shoot a few. They'll always be buffalo.

Buffalo. It's what's for dinner.

I made buffalo burgers just a few weeks ago. They were tasty!

Flukie, it's impossible to catch smallpox from a blanket, unless your job is gathering laundry in a smallpox hospital, fresh from the patients - in which case it's only almost impossible to catch smallpox from a blanket.

Eh. Too lean for me.

Nobody had a sense of "washing hands before surgical procedures" or "not dumping sewage into the street next to the well" either. Sounds delightful.

Amherst and Smallpox

British General Amherst's plans didn't work because you can't transmit smallpox on clothing, blankets, or other such items, and he could only even try it because his forces were being decimated by a smallpox outbreak.

The U.S. never tried such a thing, which wouldn't have worked because:

a) Smallpox can't be transmitted on clothing

b) The U.S. government kept the Indians innoculated against smallpox, a program started by Thomas Jefferson.
