“Hell is empty and all the devils are here.” - William Shakespeare

a-chupacabra:

“The Faeroe Islanders slaughter long- and short-finned pilot whales in the Faeroe Islands in the country’s annual, brutal whale ‘drives.’  Between 2,000 and 3,500 pilot whales are corralled by men in boats and forced into bays in this North Sea Danish Protectorate. The animals are trapped in the shallow waters. The islanders gaff the marine mammals with spears and slaughter them by severing the whales’ spines with long knives. The whales are stoned, speared, stabbed, slashed, and clubbed by people in a festive atmosphere. This slaughter is particularly gruesome since the killing is conducted as a community sporting event with young children often participating in the killing of the visibly and audibly terrified whales.  The hunt is done because of tradition and the absurd belief by the Faeroese that God gave the whales to the people to be slaughtered.”

With events like these I lose my hope for humankind…

A testament to the fact of many individuals’ innate hostility, as well as the collective whole.
