Very unoriginal names for the tigers. Oh well, they wouldn't survive in the wild, and they should not be pets and kept captive.

I dont discredit his statement, I a, well aware of that. But tell us that dolphins are a-rapin-and-a-killin all day everyday either.

All in all, it seems a case of, is it really worth it to go about your dolphin problem in this manner?

That list of stuff sounded alot like humans. Dolphins are unique both in thier capacity for inteligence and kindness, as well as brutality. Just like humans. Why is it even questioned weatehr theyare a special animal. Of course they are. If they really need to be culled as pests,…

Patricksmash, I dont doubt the validity of the concept Aso raised, but I question the validity of it coming form the likes of him. Don't teach your grandmother how to suck eggs etc. The question he was posed did not require the patronising answer he gave.

womanforwoman: do you define poor as homeless and starving? and that those on low wages, limited hours, and fickle contracts are middle class? I'm interested to know your definition now that you have brought it up.

I think you miss the point that poverty is not as clear cut to define as one would think. There are levels of poverty. My definition of poor for myself?

Not abject poverty, eating sand etc, but what do you want? Do you have an absolute definition? Have you never…

Tmarie, who ever said that love does pay the bills? Are you suggesting poor people dont pay thier bills? They might struggle, but they get by. They wouldnt get by without love in thier lives though.

Again, to reiterate what other posters have rightly said, poor does not mean unemployed,…
