It's not like I'm PETA or anything because I think they're loons but.....
you ARE kidding..... right?
In all seriousness though, I saw a documentary on it once and it is friggin' brutality. The "clubs" also had a scythe that was used to impale the seal after the poor thing had been clubbed and was down. Then the seal is lifted up off the sand, struggling; and is skinned alive. The seal is STILL ALIVE after it's skin has been brutally removed. It is one of the worst acts of inhumanity I have ever witnessed. Pure evil IMHO.
