Navy Sued for Sonar-Blasting Whales
An anonymous reader wrote to mention a CNN report about a suit brought against the U.S. Navy for sonar pollution. From the article: "The environmentalists want the Navy to use harmless passive sonar -- listening for sounds made by marine mammals themselves -- to locate the animals before using mid-frequency sonar. They also want the Navy to avoid migration and calving areas and to turn on sonar systems gradually so that the animals have time to flee."

prisoners....they have to go after the wales now too? /mission accomplished!

Or more like demanding large power windmills not be build because these uber-politically correct, but innumeracy-suffering savages are concerned a vanishingly small fraction of birds get killed by them.

"meant to"
sounds like you have a case of the intelligent design syndrome
try this one :
"if God didn't want me to fuck choirboys he wouldn't have made them so darn sexy"
etc. etc. etc.
Otherwise it is right there in the Bible, a direct commandment from God, with no exceptions or get our clauses :
Deuteronomy, chapter 5
Thou shalt not kill.
Exodus, chapter 20
Thou shalt not kill.
Matthew, chapter 5
Ye have heard that it was said by them of old time, Thou shalt not kill; and whosoever shall kill shall be in danger of the judgment.
Romans, chapter 13
For this, Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not kill, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear false witness, Thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying, namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
