I find it hard to believe that a whale (or any other creature) that has been machine gunned w/a Ma-Duece has survived. 0 -

Well if Godzilla can take so can a whale... This tribal culture thingy...Some of my ancestors took Scalps does that mean I can too!!! Give me a freaking break...I don't give a damn what happened in the past...If I can't hunt a freaking whale then neither should they....Send them some tasty beef and put an end to this BULL****0 -
"Tribal Chairman Ben Johnson told The Seattle Times that the tribe has been seeking an exemption from the federal Marine Mammal Protection Act so that it could take up to five gray whales per year"
I believe in these times of political correctness that native Americans should be slowly weaned off their hereditary rights of eating marine mammals by possibly reducing the amount eaten per year with the use of a filler such as "Whale helper".0 -
Every culture has its ancient "customs": slavery, polygamy, dog fighting, etc. Do we allow those, too? It's time that tribe came into the 21st century and leave their "heritage" behind. However, if they are allowed to continue their "tribal tradition" of whale-hunting, it should only be in the manner of their ancestors by using canoes, arrows and spears, and not Jet-skis, power boats, and machine guns. That is NOT their "heritage" - that's just an excuse.
My ancestors were allowed to carry firearms anywhere, any time without legislation, registration or restriction. Am I allowed to do that, too? Hell, no - even though the US Constitution allows me to. [:(!]0 -
Seattle Times has it as a Weatherby. Do they make a .50?

God allows you to.
The U.S. Constitution enforces your God-given right.

Look at the rag that is reporting it was a machine gun. It was probably a 50 cal Barrett rifle.0 -
