Coast Guard spokesman: "Our goal is not to make arrests, our goal is to keep everyone safe".

News reporter: "I'm hanging out with the protestors right now..."

Greenpeace is for profit disguised as communism.

Activist are saying, "We have already won".

My level of disgust knows no bounds. Every day, every stinking day, another indication that our once proud and beautiful country is over.

Yep pancakes. I remember the Rachel Corrie pancake jokes. She was stupid paid with her life trying to be a human shield.

sue Greenpeace and all aspect of the organization for the costs of delay.

Also in keeping with the sea sheppard outfit, per court order, charge them with piracy.

Assumption of risk. They got in the way of a ship lawfully navigating those waters. If they die, it is their fault.

Sorry—Misread the headline and got all excited.

I thought it said protesters hung from bridge.

Oh well.

It’s sad that they wouldn’t do this in front of Planned Parenthood!

Half of Portland are the same as these eco-terrorists.

It is going to be 100F in Portland today and hotter tomorrow. Look at them as being over a BBQ. The ship will repeat the process tomorrow. Wouldn’t want them coming down before the heat wave is over.

Be even funnier if Shell was playing a shell game and had the technologically advanced equipment on another ship already headed up there.

Ramming speed!

Break out the fire hoses and prepare to wash down the ship.

Darn hippies are probably dirty and stink. I think a shower from a 250 PSI ship’s firemain through 2 1/2 inch hoses should clean them up nicely!

I don’t know about those ships but IIRC Navy ships used up to 900 PSI.

That would be down right fun.

These are low level law breakers that are blocking legal commerce.

They should be arrested. There is a clear attempt to interfere with legal commerce.
