Ban on bluefin tuna would 'threaten Japanese culture'
Don't hurt their culture
To be Japanese, one must be able to eat endangered tuna, whales and other species that they want to see the back of.
To be American, one must drive a gas-guzzling car and pay 50% of the normal world price of petrol.
To be European, one must subsidize government workers above the average wage and benefits of the private sector and make it difficult to fire non-producing private employees.
To be Chinese, one must be able to pollute at will without verification.
To be a Sharia Law country, one must be able to oppress women and keep them ignorant.
Let's not offend these people by asking them do something against their culture.
