I always thought it was a shame both sides couldn’t lose.

Maybe he can outfit a Range Rover and name it "elephant watcher" to block the Trump boys on their killing sprees in deepest darkest Africa. 👹 (Am I allowed to use 'darkest' and 'Africa' together?)

Sea Shepherd’s Captain Paul Watson Defends Decision to End Southern Ocean Anti-Whaling Campaign

Watson's cause is as tattered as his flag.

Sea hippies ran out of filthy capitalist dollars, that’s all.

Somewhere, Yamamoto is smiling.

Whales are intelligent critters. I can’t see, and don’t agree with killing them for Japanese food, perfume or whatever else that nutty society has in mind for their products.

Elephants, same-same.

Culling of an over-abundant species is one thing. But I’m not into hunting either, not that I wouldn’t blow the hell out of a gun range.

I guess it’s just that much of the Old Testament in me.

I am a “radical right winger” and no enviro-weenie but I support Sea Shepherd, have given them money and will continue to do so. They are a lonely, radical voice defending a few whales against Jap and other factory farm behemoths and it is my decision to ally myself with them.

I miss the Whale Wars live threads. Their seamanship made the crew of the SS Minnow look like geniuses. Whether is was pumping the bilge water into their fuel tanks, randomly welding stuff to the deck for no reason or running a million dollar carbon fiber boat in front of a steel Japanese ship they provided hours of unintentional humor.

I loved whale wars, road runner vs. Wiley e. coyote on the high seas. “Deploy the Acme prop fouling rope...we fouled our own prop...again!

The Japanese changed the rules of engagement for whaling ships.

The Japanese should have sunk the boat and left the survivors to freeze to death.
