Every now and then you need to make a big deal about something like this, otherwise it gets considered to be normal and that's where everything goes downhill. If everyone just goes: "shrugs", that's the same as accepting it, which I don't believe we should. That's not to say this isn't an overreaction but I can see why it happened. | ||

Killing of animals for food as long as you do it humanely is fine. You're trying to put words in my mouth by trying to manipulate the word "amusement". I would be hard pressed to find anyone who would say that the cruel conditions in quite a few cattle farms, or whatever you call them, are for our amusement the same way a circus is for our amusement. I don't think anyone who went and watched what happened in those places would find that in any way amusing. If they do, then that's a shame. I am not putting words in your mouth at all. I am simply pointing out an inconsistency in your arguement. You say it is ok to eat animals because we need nourishment. But we don't need to eat animals for nourishment. The fact that we do is to increase our pleasure. I find it hard to believe eating a goldfish alive for amusement is any worst than eating it because it tastes good. If we had to eat goldfish to survive then I could see the value of your argument, but we have alternatives to food but choose the more pleasurable one. | ||

Seems like nobody cares about the important things just dumb things like this gold fish lol Then people go around calling others ignorant for not caring about gold fish there is way bigger things to worry about in the world. | ||

Also comparing eating a dog alive and a goldfish alive is stupid because of the point above. Dogs are bigger so if you start eating it alive it would live longer and suffer, it would be unnecessary and prolonging it's misery for no reason. Putting the entire goldfish in your mouth and chewing it kills it pretty fast. | ||

I went to a sushi resturant where they serve live lobster sashimi and they serve the lobster as it is still moving; the only thing about that that upsets me is that I am not wealthy enough to afford live lobster sashimi. Also, wtf, why not outlaw fishing or hunting or trapping for any kind of game if this is an issue? So beyond stupid I can take my 12 year old out hunting to shoot a deer but I can't eat a damn gold fish? Give me a fucking break. | ||

As a side not from someone who hates eating most cooked fish and find there meat horrible i am shocked by someone eating a live one, also someone should really get on trying to sue Bear Grylls for that sort of stuff, would be a damn funny case to watch, but Discovery and him got way to much money for that to happen i guess. | ||

fish even if it is alive. He paid for it, he cared for it, he ate it like a boss. Leave him alone. Go arrest some real criminals, not a guy who ate a goldfish. ffs, its a damn fish. Grow up. | ||

They use fines for revenue, and jail-time as a sort of blackmailing to make people give them their money. Basically, he ate a fish. What's the difference between chewing it, and it being run through a factory? | ||
