Why???
I have just had a huge row with what I thought was a friend. Basically he has booked a trip on an African safari whereby he will be hunting elephants, lions and other beautiful creatures. Obviously, it will not be on protected reserves and the company state they will only kill elderly animals or "the alpha male" so the herd/pack etc will thrive to populate. Also they are stating that hunting is good for the environment as it ironically assists the eco-system.
Now, as you may know I am an animal lover but I do hunt. However, I vehemently maintain that I have never killed anything I or a colleague would not eat. I have shot a few dears, and to be honest i was a little upset as they too are majestic animals. However, it was on land where they are bred for meat, and I am not a vegetarian. Likewise, venison is lovely and I am a crack shot so the animals did not suffer.
I will state, I am anti-snare traps and baiting. And fox-hunters can rot in hell as far as I am concerned.
So my long-winded point is, how can I convince my "friend" that this �7000 safari hunt is morally wrong. Also how can anybody enjoy shooting a giraffe or a lion for mere pleasure?
I shall not post a link but if you put in safari hunt in google images you will see beautiful animals slain being exhibited after.
let the animals roam free and wild.
Convince me otherwise.

isn't strange how you can find something to hurl at anybody!! but it really does make you look so childish when you need to insult their church, their homeland, their sexuality, even their family just to try to justify the vileness you spill out, I'm sure these people you hurl abuse at would be really hurt if any of it was true!!
Sticks and stones will break my bones, but names will never hurt me. remember that from your school days wardy!! It still applies today!! now grow up!!
May I suggest you read my question. Read where the insult came from first and read it is chronological order. In other words just read the thread and stop jumping on what ever bandwagon you think it is.
I feel so popular with people like you on here. I thank you whiffey.
neway, abt ur question, as a last atempt to stop ur friend ..?.. u should send him a large basket ful of cute n cuddly toys of elefants, girafes, lions, hipos etc .... stick in a card sayin something like" do you really want to kill these?hope you can live with it " :((
i'm sure he'll hav second thouggts
If you have nothing better to say than insult that isn't insulting or argument that isn't argumentative, I fail to see your existence on here as anything other than superfluous, unfunny meaningless chat.
Remember the next time you eat meat, it suffered, because I doubt you will have the funds to buy organic, free range produce or kill yourself.
Whether struggling or not, I am so up myself I am sitting here in a rather nice pad thinking I am winning whatever you are trying to ignite.
So I guess it doesn't really matter does it.
Whiffey why do you come on here as a 13 year old girl who gets turned on when she is kissed by older men?
You see, that is what you said, just like I wish cancer on people.

I rarely resort to such infantile statements like the above, but with somebody so darn jealous of me, I deemed it necessary this time.
Whiffey, enjoy your Lotus. Perhaps one day, you too could afford a decent car. I am sure hairdressing is very lucrative.
and if whiffey has said all this stuff, why not post a link to it, I have never seen anything unpleasant from whiffey
Anyway, you are quite boring really. Bring on some decent insult or just start another rather unfunny thread about me.
