Darwin award? I mean, what part of killer whale trapped in a tank did you fail to understand? For once I agree with HSUS. Leave the poor beasts alone. Want to see one? Watch discovery or go to Seattle and hop a ferry.

I agree. This is like the kid playing with electricity. These things got teeth like railroad spikes, and these clowns ride around standing on the back of them. Then all of a sudden, "Hey, where did she go??" You don't give these things commands at dinner time, which for them is most anytime. Daddy, what's all that red stuff in the water??   :o   Bill T.

Classic stuff, Bill, classic.......
I hate that a human being perished, but I must admit that comment was funny to me.
Sad....

Sorry for the nice young lady. 

Several sayings in my family:

Don't mess with Mother Nature.   To her, you are small, insignificant and bio-degradable.

Don't meddle in the affairs of dragons (or in this case killer whales).  To them you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.

12,000lbs!!! :o Maybe the "Whale Whisperer" can deem it as "The whale just wanted to play".......

Uh,....What kind of whale is it?

Thank you,.....duh...

Time to release this whale back to the wild, last reports on the news, state this is not the first time this whale has become aggressive, or otherwise fed up with captivity.

That would be a KILLER Whale Alex, for a $1000

That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."

This story isn't too far from that idiot Timothy Treadwell who used to like to play with Grizzly Bears. "Used to" being the key words in that sentence. Both he and his girlfriend wound up becoming appetizers as well. Why they hunted the bear down and shot him made no sense to me at all. What did they expect the bears to do, buy the two of them dinner?   Bill T.

You're on a roll, Bill....

I watched that 3-hour show about it on Discovery last year......  ::) ......
How did they really expect that to turn out?
He wanted to become "one" with the grizzly........well....be careful what you wish for..... I guess that type of thing is just a routine culling of the gene pool...

this qoute pretty much sums it up.


Quote
A SeaWorld official said that because of Tilikum's size and involvement in two previous deaths, trainers were not supposed to get into the water with him....  A former contractor with SeaWorld told the Orlando Sentinel that the whale, Tillikum, is typically kept isolated from SeaWorld's other killer whales and that trainers were not allowed to get in the water with him because of his violent history.



he has already killed 2 people, yet he still around?  they can't keep him with other whales as he is too aggressive, yet he is still around?

WTF is sea world thinking... if it was not for the fact that the animal is worth millions it would already have been put down.
I always break all the clay pigeons,  some times its even with lead.
