Barbarians still live in Northern Europe. Shame on Denmark!

I am deeply shocked with such attitude. No words. I am such against traditional bullfights in Southern Europe (Tourada in Portugal and Corridas in Spain) but I think I have found much more barbarian acts in a country which, by definition, is (or should be) more civilised than European Latin Countries. Well... I was so wrong.

Ladies and Gentlemen, you may not know but there are still Barbarian (capitalised) that have past through Middle Ages and even Modern Era. Today, 2009, there are still stupid traditions where some stupid young men have to torture to death defenceless dolphins and whales just to prove they are adults. I am sorry, what? Adults? Hasn't human insanity any limits? I can understand why such acts are still unpunished, and I think they don't either. In fact, judging the crowd assisting to that carnage, they think they must be doing something great. Killers. Murderers. Shameless living species.

This sad scenario happens in Faroe Islands which are a kind of independent country which is in fact autonomous province of Denmark. Even if they aren't officially part of the European Union, I thin it's urgent that our well paid Members of the European Parliament to do something because Danish government seems to close their eyes over this (they still have the legal responsibilities over Faroe). So please, please try to spread the word with this post or other you discovered on the Web.

It has to stop... yesterday!
