I'm vegetarian, but it wouldn't have occurred to me to use these actions of a fish-eater as an argument for vegetarianism.

I saw an episode of "I Survived" where a surfer was being attacked by a Great White Shark and a pod of dolphins showed up and distracted the shark away. At the end of the show, the surfer said the dolphins saved his life.

I guess this whale was a democrat since it has that "bad" emotion of empathy that the GOP dislikes.

Yes, because chickens are renowned for saving human lives, and nobody's *ever* heard of human beings saving animals--even those who eat other animals.
You do know that whales eat other animals, don't you? You know, even the cute ones like seals and polar bears.

the poor whale was in a human-made container instead of the ocean.....the vegan diet is really very good and healthy! Animals are such beautiful creatures.

Yep, I saw one of these at SeaWorld - I got to pet it. It kept coming back to get a pat on the head even though I didn't have any food for it. A lot of people were standing around the tank with food and it kept coming back to me. I guess it was full, ha ha! They feel like wet rubber and have the sweetest faces.
