If catch & release fishing is purely cruel and unusual torment of fish, doesn't it follow then that having the state fund and raise fish so so-called "sportsmen" can catch them in any kind of a "fun" way(even if they eat them!) even more perverse? Hatcheries are nothing but state sanctioned pervert attractions!

No one who eats fish should ever stoop to the level of actually enjoying the thrill of catching one. All fisheries should be commercial only, perhaps even some kind of automated collection device because I've heard some commercial fishermen actually enjoy what they do.

Any fish product destined for human consumption should only contain finished ready-to eat meat like fish sticks. Under no circumstances should any consumer be able to buy a fish "in the round" or with the head attached because the torture and anguish the fish was subjected to may be permanently imprinted on its face.

Is golfing perverted? If not, I guess I'll go shopping for clubs. I was going to join PETA, but then I remembered I enjoy gardening...
wouldn't want to play with my food...
