I was sick to my stomach when i watched it. The one question that poped into my head was how would these guys like to get but open while still a live and then shoved in a can.

I couldn't watch the video from when they dragged that poor animal with the truck!! That is the most awful and inhumane treatment of any living thing i have witnessed! These people are not fisherman and should be prosecuted for their actions!!!!!!!

Who the **** is in charge of those ********. Who would eat dolphin anyway? Why don't we go over there and do to them what they have been doing to the dolphins.

Disturbing but... the slaughtering methods shown are no longer legal... dolphin drive ... also large quantities of mercury are being found in dolphin... little bit of payback? I think so...

That is just plain wrong. I'd like to go over there and give a few neck adjustments.
