jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Anyone else see it? Pretty grim, catching sharks then looping the fins off and chucking them back still alive. They are supposed to be regulated but the authorities turning a blind eye. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac-Toon 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 I watched it through one pissed eye last night when I got in. It was a fairly decent watch but pointless all the same. The tiddly winks are never going to stop eating this regardless of how much pressure the Western world put on them. I still find it difficult to believe that a Great white could be caught, de-finned and thrown back whilst still alive though. Surely they'd have to kill a bigger shark first as they've got these really sharp things in their mouths called teeth. I know sentences starting like this generally are but, I'm not being racist at all but they are the most inhumane cunts on the planet when it comes to animal welfare. Have you seen the fish they eat which is still alive as they wrap it's head in cloth then boil it and it's still moving when it arrives on the table. Awful, awful cunts they are.

jaythesouthernmag 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Author Share Posted January 17, 2011 Most of the ones I saw were hammerhead sharks, young ones at that. Would be Karma if a great white had a few of the fuckers for lunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JawD 99 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Got this on my Sky+. I'd also watched the thing before it. Basically Jamie Oliver cooking fish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-Toon 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Most of the ones I saw were hammerhead sharks, young ones at that. Would be Karma if a great white had a few of the fuckers for lunch Hammerheads are those closest to extinction apparantly and they were killing them when they're still babies so none are getting the chance to reach sexual maturity to reproduce other Hammerheads. I'm a fisherman but this act is barbaric. Both in Taiwan, China and Costa Rica. Ramsey was held at gunpoint, had petrol poured over him and numerous cases of intimidation whilst trying to unearth what really goes on. He risked his neck on a few ocassions. Some will say though that if you abhor shark finning, then you must abhor all forms of animal slaughter, and if you do, the only morally justifiable course of action is to cease supporting industries that torture and kill animals. It's more the nature in which it's done and how it's pot luck what they're catching, definning and killing. They're fucking with the eco system and it's getting to a point where the levels of hammerheads is critical. Cutting a sharks fin off and hoying it back in is like removing a lions feet and teeth then dropping it back on safari. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 21502 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Was disgusting and they were shrugging shoulders as if "So what?" set of evil bastards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mac-Toon 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Was disgusting and they were shrugging shoulders as if "So what?" set of evil bastards. One in particular was smiling and laughing. I think he thought Ramsey was OK with the practice, regardless of the look of disgust on his face. They're just cruel cunts, their culture allows them and encourages them to fuck everything else and look after themselves. Lest we forget though, it was Ramsey who rang a Puffins neck then ate it's heart raw just last year, like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest alex Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 The people who provide the market for these things, i.e. shark fin soup, are as much, if not more, to blame than anyone else imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went to restaurants in London which advertise it and sell it to diners. He tried to ask the restaurant owners about it and they're soo secretive they obviously acknowledge that it's wrong. I expect they'll have a load of rabble rousers outside their door this evening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac-Toon 1 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Aye I watched it. Dirty bunch of bastards. The thing with oliver before it was canny. Never saw that. Was it his usual 'Wazz it up, half a lime, half a lemon and a crazy amount of salt and oil ten pile things up in the middle of a plate'? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Idioteque 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Just watching it on 4od now the way he just barges in to talk to the VIP customers in the restaurant and looking through bags in the shop at the start made me laugh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snakehips 0 Posted January 17, 2011 Share Posted January 17, 2011 Saw a hammerhead shark off Africa last year and another huge shark (not sure what type it was, but it's mouth was fuckin HUUUGE) off India. Fuking immense. There's something magical yet menacing about them at the same time. I'm sure you know what I mean. Magic things. Anyhoo, fish fingers and deep fried haddock are the only things that should be eaten from the sea. Unless, of course, your lass has just been for a skinny dip, like.
