Yeah, after they kidnap them from their family units, they think they do. And titles??? Do you think they're cars?

For 22 years I spent every summer from June till October on the Pacific and have observed many whales and dolphins in the wild....I have watched orcas teaching their young what they need to know..These are very intelligent animals that have complicated communication skills....They do not belong in a tiny tank.

Yes, in marriage. I believe in equal partnership but when my ex-wife turned into a shrill nagging entitlement minded *****, I jettisoned her and reminded her of the pre-nup. She got none of my money and she has to work at WalMart. This is what happens when you bite the hand that feeds you. For the record, I never laid a hand on her.

I have dominion over all that's mine.

For me, I will load my daughter in my plane, lay a carbon trail to rival Obama, and go to Sea World of which we do twice a year. My daughter learns more about aquatic life at these parks over any TV show.
Why don't you take her diving so she can enjoy sea life in their natural environment?
Oh, yeah...too much work.

IF that is true (big if), I imagine he expected us to have much better judgement and much more compassion than we have. Having dominion over something doesn't mean treating it like total crap. Well, I guess to some people it does. Which is why they can use the Bible to defend slavery, animal abuse, misogyny, and other crimes against nature.

Kidnapping? Dramatic much? They are the property of sea world just like your cat is your property.

So thankful that attitudes like this are slowly dying out.

What do you call it when someone takes a sentient creature forcibly away from its family?

Another piece of evidence demonstrating the failure of Seaworld to educate the public, or the meaning of the word sentient.
