” when someone does get killed on that show it will be because of jackasses like you cheering them on from behind a keyboard.”

Conversly then, when the Japanese government halts whaling, as they have just done, and every one of the Sea Shepherds return to Australia safe and sound, to a heroes welcome, it will be because of me, my monetary contributions to them, and brave souls such as our own cowgirl.

Gee, you’re making me feel kinda good about myself!

It never mattered to me whether they whaled or not, personally I have no problem with them going out and taking a few whales each year, there are plenty of the species they are hunting. What matters to me is a bunch of people dangerously interfering with a ship in international waters like they were doing and the tactics they employed. If you support what they do then where does it end? If you believe that global warming is killing your beloved whales will it be okay for them to do the same thing with supertankers someday? Even Greenpeace admits what they are doing isn’t cutting into the birth/death rate of any species hunted so this is nothing more than emotion driven at all levels here. Your love of whales finds it okay to do whatever is necessary to save them, cheering people on using their tactics is damn near supporting terrorism when you get down to it, and THAT is what I have always had a problem with Watson over.
