I just don;t know how someone can claim to love the sea and the awesome sized creatures in it, then go on to continually kill pregnant sharks so he can have a bit of paper with his name on it... Someone really has self esteem issues here...

Some of the comments left there make me believe that we are living in a society that has a serious intelligence deficit :twisted: :roll: :lol: :lol: :lol:, funny enough, there is a theory that mankind is growing stupid: http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread279294/pg1 and a few of these comments seem to be the perfect proof for that :lol: :lol: :lol: :wink:

Bucky looks like a real jerk but at the end of the day it was his decision, Im not a specimen hunter but there's a lot people who would kill any specimen fish to bring home to the scales to get their piece of paper. Not just sharks and not just Americans
