Posted in: Japan seeks upgraded whaling ship in sign hunts will continue See in context
Obviously the international community has banned all commercial whaling so conducting research to prove its viable is going to have to prove that there are sustainable numbers in addition to the viability of the suitability of the meat for human consumption. Recent tests of whale flesh show high levels of mercury, cadmium and other heavy metals with long term medical consequences. Many are against whaling due to the perceived fact that numbers of species have dwindled and some have been hunted to extinction. We wish this plan too upgrade would be reconsidered and that Japan seek alternative means of satisfying its desire for ocean meals.

Posted in: 3 million Americans carry a handgun daily: study See in context
I think if you do more research that the 3million figure understates just how many American are armed (and dangerous?). Just because they are not strapped on their sides, doesn’t mean they don’t have auick easy access such as the glove compartment of their car, desk drawer or several home easy to access locations. We Americans mostly grew up in an environment where guns were and are readily available.
