If you are buying the massive bags of tilapia or cod from Safeway, well, then I am sure that is okay.

Well that's 100% bull####. Ever hear of a fish farm? I would wager that more than 50% of the fish you get in a supermarket is farmed (probably a conservative estimate). Are you saying that
some of the fish we eat is wild harvested? Ok, fine, but then there are still plenty of people that hunt and eat wild game. They just don't live in big cities for the most part.
And how the hell do you arrive at the conclusion that a wild/organic diet is unethical?
