    No this is the way the film was designed to look. If you look up a lot of the facts they present, which were presented to look like they happened at seaworld, most of them happened before seaworld obtained tillicum. They intertwined them to make you angry at seaworld, because there is not much point in making you angry at sealand, they're not in business anymore. This is why i said re watch it. Pause it when they give you a fact, or introduce a new "Witness". Then hop on google and fact check the "facts" that they're giving you.

    Now you want some real fun? I've searched seaworld and found that they give millions to help save wildlife. I found that within 2 minutes of searching. Ive been searching for 20 minutes now and can't find where any of the profits of blackfish go...

    That's pretty much not the case , lol

    Name these facts that happened at Sealand , beyond of course the original incidents and death of the first trainer

    Tilikum killed Keltie Byrne at Sealand , then Daniel Dukes and Dawn Brancheau at Seaworld

    There are other incidents shown in the film with other whales , maybe you are confusing them all as Tilikum

    The whale that killed the trainer in Spain was on loan from Seaworld but also not Tilikum

    I really cant be bothered to download it again, rewatch it, and reresearch it. Really you just have to research what the people in the film have said since it's release to know what you need to know. They've said that chick told them she was making the film for one thing, and turned around and made it the complete opposite. She manipulated what she had recorded from them to support her facts and then put it in the film. And when they said they were going to actively protest the movie she asked them to wait until after the academy award season. It is supposed to be a documentary, but only tells one side of the story, there is no rebuttal. The film was made for the exact same reason you want the whales freed. They exploited a couple of incidents a company had, and the death of a trainer to make money and fame.

    This will probably be my last post in this as it's taking too much of my time. The link, and many of the other links you showed me bother me because they are so blatantly biased. We'll start with how they try to demean Seaworld with numbers. OMG seaworld had 1.4billion in revenue and yet they've only donated 50 million. Well first off revenue is not profit. a mere fraction of that 1.4b is profit. A large majority of that will go to people and companies who have invested in Seaworld. That's how successful businesses work. People will only invest money if they're likely to get more back in return. There are larger businesses that make more money and don't donate any money at all, so to criticize them on that front is BS.

    The taking of money from other organizations doesn't really bother me either. The one example they give is a breed specific organization with a location in one state. I'm not saying they wouldn't take care of other species, but they specialize in one specie, with limited range. Seaworld handles virtually all oceanic species, and has locations across the United States.

    The pilot whale situation does interest me though. I have no problem with them using them for breeding as I've read about the problems they have with dogs and limited gene pool breeding. I would like to know if they were ever released though. I found that 2 whales were released, but they were released over a year after being rescued.

    That's funny , my links and opinion is biased , lol

    Seaworld has no agenda to smear the film

    Orcas really only live 20-25 years , don't worry about the lack of social interaction , nevermind dorsal collapse , there are no incidents of violence between whales and trainers because they are so happy , Seaworld doesn't seperate mothers and calves and the mortality rate of their captive breeding program is awesome

    Nothing to see here

    I never suggested the whales could be freed , in fact I posted to the contrary

    2 of the trainers , not all , said they wish they hadn't been involved in hindsight

    There was 3 trainer deaths in the film as well as 1 non trainer death

    and my research is lacking , lol

    If you want to include a wasabi/soy mixture injected down the center of the OrcaDog, I'll invest into the Japanese market with you. I wouldn't want to change the DolphinDinkums, they sound good, as is. Maybe a shark blood dipping sauce would be a great compliment to the Dolphins greasy texture. I would also think about including soiled panties to be included for the Japanese market, incorporated into a vending machine. Focus groups conducted in Tokyo/Osaka point to a huge demand for tainted underwear to be included with seafood sales. Something to think about for the Uncle DoorDing line-up.

    As long as someone with no respect for others want to trash or purposefully misinterpret what others say it goes on until a new topic replaces it or the ol thread lock.
    Given a nice meal and silverware, I'm sure they would rather stab the person across from them and complain about the food.

    Your loss.

    So sorry. But, the Hiromatsu Coporation already has the horsemeat market cornered. We already have 15 patents and 10 patents pending related to the horsemeat demographic. We already have 6 processing plants in Montana, Wyoming and Colorado, that have been in operation for over 10 years. We saturate the European market with our delicous variety of horsemeats and byproducts. Our Black Stallion Loaf, being the most popular in the UK and Australia, is our flagship product.
    You are welcome to invest in our new franchise-restaurant called Whinnies Mane. The 5 stores open in New Jersey have done excellent, and we are wanting to expand west. We can send you a franchisee packet when your are ready to step up to the profitable world of horsemeat.

    Hmm, new one to me, but I'm sure you're well versed in it since you keep going there.;)

    I will say , for a corpsman and a Squid, you should consider representing yourself better. Scary thought the behavior you show might be how you treat a marine or another sailor. just saying.
