why is it always the commercial fisherman when a sea turtle stops a fishing industry and those turtles leave here and go down to jamacia and other islands so they can eat turtle soup so you damn dummys can talk about people that made a liveing on the water all thier lives. A turtle should not take the place of a commerical fisherman & gill nets should not take all the blame. You are takin the living from alot of people that has always had there income from the water & alot of them are old enough they don't no another occupation or don't want another one. This living has come down through there generations & that is all they no & want to do. Why take it away from them when its there way of life & has always been that. I am one of those people who has been on the water ever since I was 12 years old, now I'm 59
& still love it but have to do something else because the sea turtle seem to be more impotant than people living.
Damn turtle
