    Please yourself. I prefer to downplay the gore in every which way I can. I well remember some Greenpeace members getting some shots once of a seal that was quite obviously dead but still kicking. It was being skinned when the film was shot. Those shots went right around the world in a matter of days and did the industry no end of harm. My daughters came home from school nearly in tears after hearing about it these live seals that were being skinned.

    Now no amount of logic ever made any difference after that. No sane person is ever going to try to skin a live seal they bite worse than a dog...Can you even imagine someone trying to skin a live possums.

    Mutilation...and that is what we are talking here conjurers up thoughts of goings on out in the bush that are not quite kosher.

    Look at the dramatization of events even in our own newspapers....Man kills cat and uses it as a football. Killing a cat is no problem and quite legal but the fact he didnt want to touch it and so he kicked it into the rubbish hole becomes the problem.

    What I am trying to say it is not the act of killing, we all know what goes on, lets not glorify it though, lets be careful of the remarks that go with that act. Check Tobys remarks. I wasnt growling at him I was just a bit uncomfortable about where Toby was taking the discussion ...The evidence was graphic enough
