The arguments regarding cruelty are disingenuous, in my opinion.

The waste, and the likelihood that the species will go extinct - that is an issue of REAL importance. Not crocodile tears cause a fish got hurt, and you heard about it. ALL the fish you eat did not want to be eaten, and if you asked them, it would all be cruel.
??? are you joking?

So you cut off the fish's head. It dies. you cut off a shark's fin and you throw it back into the ocean to let it die a slow painful death. I think they drown because the way they get oxygen is by swimming.

So is it better to cut off a chicken's head or to cut off both it's wings and then let it run around still alive?
