First off, if Rick O'Barry feels he started this good for him for taking the initiative to stop it. Im not sure he started the problem, but damn glad he is trying to do anything he can to stop it. In fact if it werent for Flipper the Japanese would probably still be doing this without us being any the wiser.
The last few minutes with the Japanese representative saying he was proud of the improvements in the killing process and the collection of data reminded me of what I learned at the Holocaust Museum in DC. That disgusted me the most.
Hunting and fishing I have no problem with. What I saw in this documentary was not hunting or fishing. That was wholesale exploitation and slaughter, if my definitions of either are wrong please correct me.
This another part of Japanese culture that disgusts me but I am still fascinated by it and want to visit there and learn their language. They need to learn to hunt/fish for sustainability.
While I wasnt left in tears by this movie the last 15 minutes are pretty rough.
