I cant respect anyone that would hinder that
“Dead in the water”...my patootie! Bat boat throttled up before collision.
somali pirates are illegal
Japanese fishing - presently legal -
I support the law
I support these liberals.
plainly - because both you and them are acting emotionally instead of thinking through your position
To poorly paraphrase a line out of the movie “Broken Arrow”
sic “I don’t know, it shows a lack of total commitment”.
If they were SERIOUS about saving whales they would have let the Japanese ship run over the cabin of their little boat and they could have written off the crews as martyrs to their cause.
Fire a high powered green laser at me, in an attempt to blind me and I will shoot back with real bullets. The Japanese ship should have turned around and made a second pass over their hull.
What the enviro-wackos are doing is to declare a personal war against Japan. I would not be unhappy in the slightest if this group found a limpet mine attached the hull of their boat and they were sunk to the bottom of the Antarctic sea.
If we (Americans) are against terrorist fundamentalists then we need to not make a distinction to what cause the terrorists fight for or against.
Actually, what you're supporting is the Japanese using a loophole to get around the law.
There are no good guys in this fight.
Last night I heard a carrot scream.
” you can’t recycle carbon fiber. So much for being green”
Well, we all know “green” is about green and not anything concerning the planet.
of course, thats plain to everyone - my point is, change the laws, dont point green lasers, or cut in front of a bigger ship....both actions will make chum of you on the high seas
“They are not trying to harm anyone. “
Green lasers are harmful and using them an act of aggression worthy of violent reaction. These are not “harmless” liberals.
Let me shine this green laser in your eyes. OK?
Bull...they don't prevent anything. They have YET to prevent the fleet from making their quota. Even Paul Watson admits that.
Pirates...hmmm...SSS are pirates.
Not trying to harm anyone? You admit you watch the show...so I guess you are not able to put 2 and 2 together? Let me enlighten you:
When you are attempting to foul a prop line...you are doing so in an effort to disable the vessel...so it cannot move. Having no steering in the open ocean is a death sentence as your ship will capsize in heavy seas.
On more than one occasion they have attempted to prop foul the ships in heavy weather. If they were to succeed...the ship would have likely floundered killing all on board.
And you sit here and say they aren't trying to HARM anyone? OMG....
And you are wrong there too. What they are doing is not illegal. They are obeying the laws as written. They are exploiting a loophole in an "international law" so that they can eat whale meat. The law allows them to harvest for research then sell the meat. The law doesn't say how the research is to be conducted. Technically there is nothing illegal.
Hmmm...wonder how many loopholes you exploit every day....or how many you will exploit come tax season.
I imagine some time in the future if the UN decides to make us all stop eating pork...will you exploit any loopholes...or will you just support the vigilanties that are trying to kill us while we exploit the loopholes?
Like my ol’ grandpappy used to say “son don’t bring a carbon fiber speedboat to a whaling ship fight”.
cos 500 ton 12 knot fishing boats can get up to flank speed from stationary within a few metres.
Should have left them to drown.
We don't but you apparently do.
Would you care more if they were killing (cute) Polar Bears?
No.
I support these liberals. They are not trying to harm anyone.
Yes they are. Green lasers blind. That is trying to harm.
Do any of you critics ever watch their TV show?
Let me guess, you loved "Fahrenheit 9/11"?
funniest thing ive read all night
This is a good read:
http://www.greenpeace.org/usa/news/paul-watson-sea-shepherd-and
Greenpeace calls out (erstwhile comrade) Paul Watson and Sea Shepherd for their dangerous stunts and general bullcrap. Whatever our disagreements with many of Greenpeace’s positions, at least they seem to sincerely respect ALL life (including human life) and are committed to non-violence.
Genesis 9:2 And the fear of you and the dread of you shall be upon every beast of the earth, and upon every fowl of the air, upon all that moveth upon the earth, and upon all the fishes of the sea; into your hand are they delivered.
3 Every moving thing that liveth shall be meat for you; even as the green herb have I given you all things.
4 But flesh with the life thereof, which is the blood thereof, shall ye not eat.
5 And surely your blood of your lives will I require; at the hand of every beast will I require it, and at the hand of man; at the hand of every man's brother will I require the life of man.
