Because the site is part of a natural reserve, the 105 whale carcasses were left to decompose where they stranded, Stoffregen said.
And here's where the second tragic event kicked in: None of the meat was harvested for either human or animal consumption. What a waste.
The first event was nature at work; the second was leftist buffoonery.

YG, actually that statement was in response to those who think American Indians were passive peoples livin' in paradise until whitey showed up.
Afterwards, folks on both sides would violently break treaties and conflicts intermittently continued.

Well, I suppose proactive passengers and crew could say 'please' unlock the door or we'll have to say 'please' again.
Yeah, that's the ticket.

sappquest, all that cultural stuff is interestin' but if someone locks himself in an airliner bathroom for an hour and refuses to come out, we're goin' in there very violently. The lives of everyone on that aircraft may depend on it. Many of us have learned that lesson.

sappquest, we gotta weigh someone's unusual behavior against three-hundred people smashin' into the ground at four-hundred miles an hour.
If someone locks himself in the bathroom and becomes verbally abusive to inquiries, that's unusual behavior. I want that door smashed down and that guy dragged out rather than three-hundred odd folks possibly dyin' horrific deaths.
It's a new world.

"Cleo, where's the women's responsibility in any violence? I've seen girls/women push some guys in a way where the guy took it, but if a man did the same thing to him, he'd've gotten his face broken fast.
Too many posters seem to be sayin' that females are just passive objects of aggression. Sometimes, sure. Oftentimes, I think there's a lot more at play, from both sides.
Where's the parents responsibility in the upbringing of their children, females included?

sappquest, you live in a new world post-9-11.
When folks on an aircraft say you've been in the john too long and refuse to come out, ya better crack that door no matter who gets offended by your stink.

If they rammed Greenpeace and Greenpeace learned they were playin' a dangerous game, maybe the whalers should ram these other pirates.
Greenpeace or no, I've always held the whalers should ram the SS and Co.

As long as Iran doesn't get cheeky and meddle with nuclear weapons and Israel, et al, I'm sure everything's gonna be pretty much confined to Iran.
Peachy is as peachy does.

numbskull, I see you have no understandin' of American history either.
For the record, pre-Columbian American was a horrific place for many native peoples... kidnappin', rape, massacres, slavery, land grabs...
And you speak of native Americans as nancy boys who couldn't put up a good fight. I speak better of them than you.
Are you aware American Indians fought for the Confederacy in our Civil War (as many others fought for the Union)? Do you know that some of these tribes fought for the Confederacy because they were slave owners?
So much you don't know, numbskull. Walk on to any American Indian land today numbskull and try to take down the Stars and Stripes. I gotta admit I'd pay good money to see what happens to you next. Good money, my friend.

The 1979 Iranian 'revolution' reminds me of the 1789 French Revolution. Of course there are a lot of differences, but a big thing is that that both revolutions had unintended consequences... they ate each other.

But it wasn't communism. It was extremists...
Er, numbskull... the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, countries of eastern Europe, Cuba in Africa, Cuba in Cuba, Ho Chi Minh,Mao...
A few extremists, eh?

And where did I post that, numbskull?
Not even for family? Huh? Coward! Hah!
numbskull, is there some immediate threat to my family that I need to rush right out and guarantee - guarantee - my own death right now.
Help a bud out. And his family.

numbskull, most every American would agree with my statement that those two airliners were turned into missiles, i.e. bombs. Unnerstand?
numbskull, thank you... London was bombed. You now accept that there are differents kinds of bombs and different methods for delivering them. Progress. Excelsior.
I never said all of Islam are either jihadists or support jihadists. You've made that strawman argument before.

ca, because many (most?) countries don't accept assault as acceptable behavior, they have a penal systems to punish some nonconformists.
