Legal Seafoods
, a New England institution recently held a dinner to highlight the hypocrisy within fisheries management as well as the bullshit spun by the foodies that toe the line. The powers that be still claim that our local fish stocks, including cod are still too overfished to be caught. This
asshole lists Legal as a place to boycott because they are making light of this so-called 'science'.
So while the Obama/Lubchenco plan works it way toward decimating what is left of New England fisheries, these greenheads swallow the tripe without a second thought. Our fisheries are rebuilt - and there are no longer enough boats to even catch what is allowed. Before the
Catch-Share 
system came into place last May, local fishermen were
under fishing, not overfishing the once-depleated stocks.
You want to know how short-sighted these eviro-nitwits are? They claim to care about the health of the oceans, yet they tell the public to avoid our sustainably caught local fish (which helps local economies as well), while America imports 80% of its seafood from other countries. Much of this fish comes from areas that are heavily overfished and exploited by factory ships. Why is it ok to eat fish from these places but not fish caught from a small boat from your own country? Just goes to show that environmentalism only extends to their backyard fence.
I'm not impressed with environmentalism...
