Sucks for the dolphin but I'm not sure why everyone cares so much. There are real murders happening.

What is sad is you don’t understand that this is a real murder.

Its not that I don't "understand" I just disagree. I do not value animal lives as much as human lives which is why I'm not referring to this as a real murder. This is sad of course and whoever did it deserves to be punished for it. Its just odd to me that this is such a big deal to so many people when so many human beings are being murdered on a daily basis. The reaction I've seen to this outweighs that of any human murder I've seen in recent memory.

Great point. It's really too bad that humans evolved to only be able to consider one thing at a time, and therefore nobody can care about the murder of a dolphin AND the deaths of humans.

Fucking bummer. But I guess we're limited by our biology.

On the plus side, considering this means I don't care about what they were saying now!
