Sell Steve Irwin for scrap too. “That’ll leave a mark!”

Yeah, looks that way. Perhaps Bob Barker has selected a new "cause" to support.

Hi.

“I was sorely disappointed when the Russians didn’t give them a long term in Siberia”

I thought we wouldn’t be hearing from them again.

Well, one could only hope.

Is that where the term “BOOM!” comes from?

It’s amazing more of these seafaring shitlibs haven’t been killed. The ocean doesn’t suffer fools.

My thought is that Japan should arm its whalers with miniguns or RPGs.

The Japs should have mounted little 3” naval guns to deal with green piracy, from a range of 2-8 miles.

I once saw a bumper sticker,”NUKE the WHALES”.

Did not know it had gone this far?

Last item from pdf http://www.icrwhale.org/eng/history.pdf;
2002 : Watson tells Animal Rights 2002 Conference in Washington DC that if a person dies from one of his actions, he would consider it “collateral damage”. He believes it is not possible to “commit violence against non-sentient objects Property damage is not violence.”

A few highlights (low lights? there are so many it's difficult to figure out which is the darkest & lowest) from http://www.targetofopportunity.com/paul_watson.htm;

The Environmentalist Connection

Environmentalists love him. His opponents hate him. Of course Environmentalists love him. This is just another example of the terrorist activities and tactics that these organizations use daily. More proof that these are not "Non-Violent Activists" as they would have the public believe. Who says that these people are not terrorists?

Watson is a terrorist who has said that "earthworms are far more valuable than people." It is that attitude that explains why he has started the careers of some of the most violent animal-rights activists. SHAC terrorists Rodney Coronado and Joshua Harper have both served as crewmembers on SSCS expeditions.

...

... Here are a few other words of wisdom from Paul Watson showing what he really believes.

Paul Watson protects whales because they're basically distant cousins. They're both tubs of blubber. The difference is, whale blubber is actually good for something.

That self-righteous piece of squat should be squid food.
