I think we should all stop usuing the term "Killer Whale" they are not whales they are dolphins and the term killer whale was from "Killer of whales" because some pods kill and eat whales or at least parts of whales. The term is promoted by the people who make money from them because the public responds to sensationalism, we should call them what they are Orcas.

The same people who want to stop keeping orcas today are the same people who wanted it stoped last week and the same people who want to stop all "animal incarceration" they just cant wait for someone to die from a snake or a marine mammal or a dog and give themselves a platform to strike. Persomaly I am compleetly fine with my risk of death from a big snake, shark, dog, ecsaped big cat, marine mammal, chimp, car, airplane, jet ski, motorcycle, terrorist because in reality all these are so rare to bother waiting time on. Lets cure cancer or some real things that matter and stop trying to legislate personal safty or trading freedon for safty because to safe life becomes the more scared people become.
