What they were trying to do is an act of piracy. They are lucky they were only rammed.

The Armada reborn....now they need to sink those pesky illegal immigrant boats from North Africa plaguing all of Europe that lies on the shores of the Mediterranean. Ole!

You live near Castroville
Artichokegrower?
Was there once when they had their artichoke festival.
They claimed to be the artichoke capital of the world.
Real neat festival where the folks accentuated what they had,
And were proud,

“Well, it *was* a video. Shocking? No, not in the least.”

Shocking that someone finally took firm action against these hippies.

They do realize that most rational, reasonable people applaud the efforts of the world’s navies in keeping the seas safe for commerce... especially if it means a few less “holier than thou” leftists contributing Co2 to the atmosphere by continuing to breath.

So the GP people are on the inflatable boats wearing a backpack. Why would they be wearing a very bulky backpack?

My guess is they were intent on boarding like they’ve done in the past.

Kinda ironic the GP boats are using oil to protest the oil producers.

My comment on their thread:

Typical greenpeace “activists” attempting to disrupt lawful activities on the ocean, and when it turns rough, they start screaming about the women on board. Duh! Hello?

Our U.S. Navy SEALs did an even rougher job 20 years ago to Greenpeace when they tried to disrupt lawful, scheduled missile tests off the coast of Florida. Our SEALs in their RIBs actually went along side the Greenpeace inflatables and stabbed a tube on them to deflate it. They won’t sink, they have multiple tubes, but the “fun” is over for the day as they must limp at low speed back to port.

Something for the Spanish Armada to consider.
