"Hooked on a Myth" Perspective

In Victorias Braithwaite "Hooked on a Myth", she opens up a new view of equality. I may be speaking totally off or really on point but she opens a view Upon the organisms below us. She compares the Nervous system of a fish to a human being. Saying that they feel the same thing but the fish doesn't show the affection. The affection in which let us know that they suffer. She backs her information with scientific facts so she makes valid point. In my own opinion  I agree with she says but in reality finically and recreationally sport fishing and fishing in general brings benfits. So even though her points are valid and I agree the fact of the matter is people aren't going to change there ways. It's ether you agree with her and go about day or disagree and about your day. It's just something to question because no one ever thought of it.Another article that has a a similar idea is Jermey Rifikins "A change of Heart about Animals " has the same guideline of Braithwaite but has more testing and scientific statistics. Which did the same as Braithwaite article which as interest me but didn't have me take action towards anything.

  1. I agree with you kevin on thne point that people are gonna change their ways just for the fish. However, I think it's cool that Victoria shed some new light on the way we do treat them. I'm not saying I'm gonna start a fish activitist club or anything but I found the points and her argument somewhat interesting and really enjoyed it.
