Here is a comment from a facebook post I saw today (edited slightly for grammar, spelling, etc):
Whenever dealing with these kinds of issues—whether it be fishing, oil, lumber or whatever is—by cutting one thing you effect another.
The fact of the matter is our oceans are over-fished and there are quite strict guidlines and shortened season restrictions on commercial fishing—go to a dock and ask any of 'em.
The other fact, then, is fish farms create both a product plus a form of income for a large amount of people. The majority of my closest friends rely on one or the other for their income. Shut them both down then it starts to effect the restraunt industry and my dear friend (Guy) from creating delicious salmon plates.
I totally agree there are issues but throwing down a statement like that (Stop Farming) for public debate is gonna spark a fire or two.
