I’ll never understand why Japan puts up with this. They should just sink them and kill every last pirate.

Rinse and repeat. The world does not need Paul Watson in it.

Let’s see. If those hippie losers tried to board my ship, what would I do?

Give them the OBL burial at sea treatment or cut them up for chum?

Chum wins, and Paul Watson would be first.

(Gutsy call)

Why are they so worried about the Shaonan Maru? Maybe if they didn’t drive the Ady Gil in front of it would still be floating.

The sea hippies seem to have completely forgotten that the Ady Gil was sunk when it was cutting across the front of the Japanese ship instead of just sitting there.

Denial or insanity?

so brave Capt Watson’s number one plan is “Retreat” to the safety of Australian waters?

How moonbat of them!

I hope the Japanese follow them in.

LOL about all the hottie sea shepherdettes being on the bridge.

They’re definitely hippies, but is it or is it not illegal to hunt for whale meat? From what the show claims, the Japanese are doing it under the cover of scientific research. So, what’s the deal here?

Do they have a job other than standing around the bridge and waiting for Admiral Chubby's dramatic exhalation?

They failed to realize that the Shaonan Maru is not a whaling vessel anymore but a government vessel and apparently can follow them to port. Idiots.

So even if they are doing something illegal it’s up to the Sea Hippies to right the wrong?

I hope the Japanese sink every last one of their boats.

It’s not illegal. And some is done for research purposes as well.

The Sea Shepherds also have tried to shut down traditional whaling operations in the Faroe Islands. (Operation Viking Shores)

These idiots are eco-terrorists.

Dang - I didn’t get to see the Brigitte Bardot in pieces like the Ady Gil. I’m bummed.

I don't like the whaling but I don't like the sea hippies either. I'm rooting for spectacular failure for both, but especially stupid and humiliating failure for the hippies.
