> Isn’t the purpose of a shepherd to preserve a flock so that the animals can eventually be harvested for human use?
Sometimes. Just as often the shepherd preserves the flock from hostile animals like wolves, so that the flock can be sheared.
> The Japanese are the harvesters here.
In this case, the Japanese are the wolves here.
I won’t often side with Environmentalists, but in this case I will. The Japanses have no business whaling in the Antarctic Ocean. They are poachers.
Thank you Japanese fishermen! Please go home via the Somalia coastline. Our pussy gubmints won’t take those little b’rds out but your on top of what’s on a lot of our minds and I applaud you.
“The Japanses have no business whaling in the Antarctic Ocean. They are poachers.”
And poaching is nothing new to Japanese fishing boats in general.
There’s not really a good guy in this fight.
I get it, its kinda like the guys who bomb abortion clinics because they think abortion is wrong. I understand and ‘GO YOU GUYS AND GALS’/s
International treaty which bans taking of whales permits this so called “research”. Change the law if you are agin’it.
The enviro wackjobs are assaulting the whalers. So far the whalers have shown restraint.
The enviro wackjobs are are escalting this not the whalers.
Its only a matter of time before the wackjobs get killed.
