    No, they're left to drown in air.

    Another thing I have objected to in the paste. The waste that is.

    If you want to see what REAL waste is you should go out with the EU fishing fleets.

    Thanks to one of the many bizarre EU rules (its fishing quota system), 1 MILLION tons of fish are thrown back dead into the North Sea each year. Unlike those sharks, no part of those fish are eaten at all.

    Countries such as China fishing for sharks for their fins is much less wasteful than what the Eu does when it catches fish.

    So does that make the wasteful nature of shark fin soup suddenly okay??!!

    Also, in Korea dog soup is made by torturing the dog to death, it suppose to release adrenalin and give it more energy or some rediculous thing.

    It is okay to kill an animal for food.

    Humans are natural meateaters. Humans killing animals for food is what nature intended, so spare us all the unnatural hippy, vegetarian, Greenpeace nonsense.

    Nature doesn't have a mind of it's own and claiming it does is an obvious attempt at using the Naturalistic Fallacy. "Nature" may have no problem with a lot of things, lacking a consciousness and all; that doesn't make them right.

    I'm not sure where to start with this one.

    Firstly, how is it less wasteful to use only the fin rather than the whole animal? Secondly, in the quote above this one you were trying to argue against me for seeing something wrong with animals being killed at all, and now you do the same thing. Thirdly, no matter how bad it is to kill fish in general, that in no way makes it right to slice the fins from these sharks. If you have a problem with fishing in EU waters then maybe you should argue against that, unless you're being disingenuous of course.
