    If the fish are in a natural reserve, then you pretty much pit your soil on the line. We're missing that detail here and treating it as if this is the difference between one lake or another

Gary's point is: sell what people are buying. But you think: that's immoral.

What about a functioning market is immoral?

    You're still responsible for the consequences of what you produce and sell.

    Surely you would agree that making landmines simply because there are people who want to buy them would be an immoral choice.
