That depends on how good they taste. One of these bad boys can kept me fed for over a week! Really though, subjective, emotional, sensationalized nonsense because after all, if someone does something you disagree with or makes you feel bad they're an idiot. Anyone hear of the “Whole Foods” store that stopped selling live lobsters. You can kill them before they get to the store but apparently you just can’t count on the ignorant consumer to kill them in a humane way I suppose. Similar rubbish.

The best way to protect whaling is to legalize it. Make countries/companies pay to hunt them, regulate the industry, and enforce the regulations. This way not only can you control the hunting but you delegitimize those who don’t follow the laws. Let the UN control it , that rapid response force they want can help enforce the regulations.
