Under the aegis of the long term emerging customer overwatch ministry sub comity for the ethical treatment of possible marine sophonts of the 242nd concilium of the Incorporated States of ZMI and by the authority of the Gestalt in the name of the Citizen Shareholders we do formally decry and condemn this waste of possible consumers and destruction of probably sentient life this declaration condones.

Further we find the type setters of this upstart island governments publishing house most disturbingly lacking in policies relating to the use of proper checks and quality control measures relating to documents for public dissemination.

The General Foods Company wishes to apply for a fishing permit in Black Island waters.

However, we wish to question whether an electric harpoon, which harpoons the animal then applies an overly fatal electric charge, is humane enough for the Empire.

ooc: I am ok with this one, it has limits, and I can't deal with two wars at once, so, this is likely my last post in this thread.

The nation of Tanaara ask with polite disinterest - How exactly does one know, by merely looking - ie visual inspection - if a whale, Orca, Shark, Dolphin, or Porpoise is pregnant?

and adds The Ryou Black Islands to the list of nations that Tanaara will have no trade or any interaction with. Jumping on band wagons has consequences.

Leafanistan and British Londinium among others are already there

Sailor's Fresh Food wishes to apply for a fishing perimit for Whale and dolphinhunting.

We also wish to ask if it would be considered humane to catch in a net and the quickly slit the throat of a dolphin?

If not then we will quickly switch to electric harpoons.

Please respond soon,

Groga gro-Lark,
Vice President of Sailor's Fresh Food
