Paul Watson is one of the fathers of environmental terrorism. The group he founded and leads, the Sea Shepherd Conservation Society (SSCS), is a pirate organization that sails around the world, terrorizing fishermen.
Wearing a long bowie knife and carrying AK-47s on board, he threatens to ram any ship that wont give in to his demands. Watson was a founder of Greenpeace, but the group banished him in 1977 in disapproval of his violent tactics.
He is a board member of the Sierra Club.

I watched a news article a few years ago where this man actually rammed a Japanese whaler and scraped her side the length of the ship. I wondered at that time why the Japanese captain didn’t order his men to shoot at these criminals. Maybe Japan took all their guns away like America is trying to do. They interviewed Watson and he is one arrogant, self righteous SOB.
