Culling a few 3m sharks pales into insignificance... how is this not met with international outrage??
I'm OUTRAGED!!!.. I'm going to make a sign saying how many deaths vending machines cause each year!

I'd use this one. Because if you go with your first idea you'd be wrong. Vending machine are responsible for more deaths than Sharks not whale sharks.. You need to keep your signs factual...

says he who sells the platforms to catch recreational fish in WA
Do you have an issue with recreational fishing? Seems you do and your trying to push your bigoted ideas on to someone else
Go protest on Fishwrecked..
No I like fishing but dont love it, just find some of the comments on these threads biased, even hypocritical. Most people will push there own barrows but forget the fact they add to the problem of ocean depletion.
sorry for spelling mistakes
It's always Asian countries.... Be it whales, whale sharks, sharks, rhino, elephant, dolphins, orangutans ..... have they no respect for the worlds wildlife

SO your saying Recreational fishing is depleting the oceans
Don't you think having scientific based quotas is completely different than a government killing a species , dumping the body at sea to bring other sharks into clean up the mess. All this whilst spending millions of our dollars to do that is comparable to recreational fishing..
All whilst there is no guarantee it will make our beaches any safer what so ever
Scientific quotas on rec fishing? jb, is that a joke? It is, until they quota the number of boats out there anyway. You don't think "small" fish get chucked back at the end of the day so the all the "size" bigger fish can be kept. Dreaming if you think there's any real science in it. But gee, it's keeping lots of people in jobs.
...Damn, didn't really mean to post in this thread, sorry about that little off-topic rant...

There's always one isn't there... You can't let it go without blaming Asians for it.
You honestly think they are the only ones. Maybe you should look in your own backyard... Drum lines and nets in NSW, Qld and now WA... and that is before we look at the per capita emissions of Australia compared to the rest of the World.
To paraphrase a reasonably famous religious text: "Take the log out of your own eye before you take the speck out of someone else's.
In other words... make sure you're perfect before you blame an entire race (or in the case of "Asians" an entire group of races).

Check out these shots. Remember this is daily..
JB I am sure we all get your point. Especially since you are saying the same thing in 10 different threads. You are ruining Seabreeze for me.
Not every thread need's to include your opinion, normally I would not care as I can find another thread to move onto to - however your on every fusking one... Seriously man we get you, your point can not be much clearer.
Can you please move on to something else or find a shark forum to do whatever you are trying top achieve.

If you drop the PC idealist bs for a moment and just isolate the statement (and maybe do some travel to these countries, if you haven't), you'd have to admit.. It's a fact.
Maybe we should start throwing sticks of dynamite at sharks over 3m?.. That'll fck em!

Mate are you even serous. If you can list 10 different shark threads I've posted in over the last month i'll move on. But how about if you can't and your just making up sh-t, you feel free to leave
I've posted in two threads regarding the issue..
If you don't like it then don't read it.

Troll, check you profile, you have only ever posted in a shark thread and your trying to call me on it..Twit
1 - Not your mate!
2 - Not leaving.
3 -10 is a figure of speech which your more than happy indulge in!
4 - Yes serious, always serious otherwise I would not type it.
5 - Stop being a smart arse and help your own cause by toning it down a little and try listening/reading for a change and be more open minded.
Nobody knows every thing, certainly not me or you, so why slam everyone's post when they don't align with you?
6 - continuing my numbers will make you a sheep
7 - I have learnt heaps about sharks ect in the last few months (even from you) but you just go on and on and on, you really do make your side of
the story as a whole really bad.
8 - Picture the tv getting hold of seabreeze threads on sharks. There is no way it could be used to benefit you or your cause. You should be
portraying yourself as a respected nice person.
Just how I'm reading it chief. IMO sit back, take a breather, re-read topics from the start.
Move on

I think maybe you should take the blinkers off or what ever you have going on.
You just made a comment that i am posting in 10 threads and you were wrong. I comment in threads that interest me and thats what a forum is about. Don't like it don't read it, but were do you get of telling me I'm ruining Seabreeze, and that i should leave
