Crimson Crime in Denmark

(At bottom, please also read emails I sent regarding this issue. l.p.)

(Narrative source, below, unknown)

Denmark is a big shame.
The sea is stained in red and in the mean while it's not because of the climate effects of nature.



It's because of the cruelty that the human beings (civilised human) kill hundreds of the famous and intelligent Calderon dolphins.

This happens every year in Feroe iland in Denmark. In this slaughter the main participants are young teens.

WHY?

To show that they are adults and mature.... BULLLLsh


In this big celebration, nothing is missing for the fun. Everyone is participating in one way or the other, killing or looking at the cruelty "supporting like a spectator"



Is it necessary to mention that the dolphin calderon, like all the other species of dolphins, it's near instinction and they get near men to play and interact. In a way of PURE friendship



They don't die instantly; they are cut 1, 2 or 3 times with thick hocks. And at that time the dolphins produce a grim extremely compatible with the cry of a new born child.


But he suffers and there's no compassion till this sweet being slowly dies in its own blood


Its enough!

We will send this mail until this email arrives in any association defending the animals, we won't only read. That would make us accomplices, viewers.


Take care of the world, it is your home!

Gail Shea,
Minister of Fisheries and Oceans
Government of Canada
Dear Honourable Ms. Shea,

Would the Government of Canada consider using its good offices to
speak out about the inhumane and destructive practice of slaughtering
endangered and defenseless dolphins off a Danish island each year?
Perhaps this could be done through the United Nations and/or Canada's representative(s) at a Law of the Seas conference?
I hope you will visit the site (see active link below) for more details of this shameful practice.
I would appreciate a response at your earliest convenience.
Yours truly,

Larry Powell

Dear Peter, (Mansbridge),

I wonder if The National would consider covering the annual slaughter of defenseless and endangered dolphins (see photo attached) which apparently happens each year off a Danish Island (see active link below for details).

Secondly, perhaps Rex could provide us with another commentary in support of this ritual, as he did for the Newfoundland seal hunt. (I'd recommend he looks at the numerous photos of this event before he does this.)

Yours truly,

Larry Powell
