the Sea Shepperd Conservation Society Terrorists

(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sea_Shepherd)

-They have admittedly (and proudly) destroyed whaling vessels of other nations.

-They have rammed fishing ships and whaling ships with their own vessels to destroy equipment.

-They have thrown glass bottles of butyric acid at the crews of whaling vessels from their ship.

The Sea Shepperd Conservation Society has used violent and destructive means, as a way to stop activities to which they object, threatening the livelihood and possibly the lives of the people who perform said activities

They are terrorists, and violent criminals.

They are terrorists, and violent criminals.

And beating to death a million seals, a fifth of the seal population, at a remote area of the world in three years does not terrorize the seals? What possible threat are the seals to man? Man kills them not for survival but for pleasure. Some faggot will make a lot of money designing fashion furs. Some society bitch will fawn all over her pelt garments. Somehow, I think Watson may not be a terrorist, but a freedom fighter.

It's interesting you provide the wikipedia link, but ignore citation in the link supporting Watson. For example one citation says Costa Rican prosecutors dropped charges against Watson [after they saw the films of the fishermen ILLEGALLY finning sharks}.

I'm sure the hunters will start screaming about depriving them of their rights. I don't see any right listed in the Constitution to kill animals for pleasure. The moralists will come out and tell me I am a hypocrite for eating cows. Cows are prey food. They need to be eaten to prevent them from eating all the vegetation. Seals are predators. They are on our side.

Equating Watson to a terrorists is a stretch. We are a war with Islamic terrorists who daily cut off heads or bomb to kill people. Who has Watson killed? Has he hid from his actions? Is he asking you to eat veggie burgers or else he will ruin you? I think the commercial slaughter of seals and whales using modern technology is a rotten aspect of man. It's at the same level as African poachers who kill Gorillas or the savage Muslims who torture an ancient [ENDANGERED] sea turtle before slitting it's throat. If tradition is so important to the Japanese, Aleuts, and the like, make them use the flimsy weapons and boats their ancestors used. At least give the animals a sporting chance and make the hunter take the traditional risks.

Your blood lust has you confused about terrorism.
