Acording to you everything is cruel, how do you walk down the street knowing you are hurting thousands of tiny creatures. Come on people are not perfect, so it takes a couple min. for the seals to die. They could be doing way worse things to the seals. Dont you think animals slowly dieing from polution and loss of habitat is worse. Sure the seal is killed but you can not say that the hunters are purposly killing the seals as slow as possible. If you are going to call seal hunting cruel then you need to attack fishing, pesticide spraying, and what about antibiotics. Antibiotics weaken the protective layer of viruses allowing them to be distroyed. Is that not cruel? Death is natural. We live in a world were it happens every day, but society has labeled death as horible and unneccesary. All things die, you cant stop it.

I think it is cruel (by all of your definitions) to put me down so often, and not listen to my opinion. You getting mad at me protecting my opinion and country is really quite ironic because you are also always defending your opinions and protecting your country. I bet if I outright said something bad about your countries you would react the exact same way I have. You are the ones with your head in the sand, I listened and thought about all of your opinions, and stated why I did not feel the same way as you. But no one has extended that same curtisy to me. Lets just say I have not had a warm welcoming to Pet Talk and will not be recomending it to anyone.
