Because dead lobster spoils very quickly. It generally isn't safe to eat lobster that was dead before it was cooked.

Says you.
Flies and geckos serve a purpose. If I don't kill them, should I condemn you for killing them?

ALS: Who wrote the petition? It's not really worded very well and personally, it keeps me from taking it all that seriously. I don't mean to say the crime isn't serious, I just mean that I generally give more credit to things that are well-written than things that aren't.

ThetaDancer, don't worry. I know what you mean. I admit (and I need to put this in my "Do you Judge" thread) that when I see poor grammar, I don't take things too seriously. I was just invited by a friend on FB. I then signed it-without looking at the grammar that much. I'm sorry, I do not really know who wrote it. It is unfortunate that stupidity could turn people off to signing. I'm not saying YOU, I'm saying that there are many people out there who think like us that would NOT sign for that very reason, understandably.

I am not signing the petition for the simple fact that I believe that sentencing is best left to Judges.
Also, I would not eat my dog. Not like he'd harvest much meat, anyway.

I steam lobster. In beer. Tastes better.

Lobster and crab are only to be steamed LIVE in beer.
It's a family tradition for me.

Plus it is fun seeing the lobsters and crabs fight to the death and scurry if they ever get loose. You can also hear them scream!!!! You get used to it after the first few times of doing it. You also know it's gonna taste YUMMY.
"Crabs in a barrel" is so accurate because when one crab gets close to the top, the other crabs say "oh no you don't!!!!"
Damn, I love cooking lobster and whole crabs. And I'm not a sociopath or serial killer.

Supposedly, the screaming sound is really just air escaping from the shell (think tea kettle type effect), but I think they are truly screams of terror, from the vocal cords. Really.

Lobsters don't have vocal cords.
