I understand when people speak about the ethical problems with eating meat, but I think they do not apply to fish.

You're the one claiming they are, and you've failed to provide any support. The burden of proof is on you to show that it is unethical. A claim which is asserted without support can be dismissed just as easily.

Sure, yeah, claim like "yeah it's ethical to eat fish" with no reasoning behind it despite much prompting. You're basically claiming the that either the points I've mentioned are not things that happen, or that they are totally ethical to do. So I'm not going to waste my time.

I am merely rejecting your claims that it is unethical, as you haven't provided any grounds to support it.

I never claimed either that the points you mentioned do not happen or that they are ethical to do. I said they are irrelevant to the question of whether it is ethical to eat fish and meat.
