I was thinking more of those vikings in Iceland, but yes, you are right.Kim:They already did...twice!
You should be ashamed of yourself. Sea Shepherd is the only organization that physically intervenes with illegal whaling. They haven't hurt anyone so far, and they make it a point not to. Go Paul Watson!DennisS:Hopefully the next time this egomaniac tries to sink a vessel on the high seas they have a rifle and a seaman that is a good shot.

After the sinking of the Icelandic whaling vessels in 1986, Sea Shepherd lost its status as observer at the IWC(International Whaling Commission). The organisation claims that it is merely enforcing IWC rules. In February 1994, IWC Secretary, Ray Gambell, declared to NTB (the Norwegian Telegram Agency) that the IWC and all its member states ardently condemn Sea Shepherd’s acts of terrorism.
If you want to support an organization that tries to save marine mammals go with Greenspeace, they got rid of this nut long ago.
Wow. If filming a whale being killed is crazy, what isn't?RichKirby:And I thought Greenpeace was crazy...

Is it better to kill whales or to defend them?
I wouldn't be surprised at the content on those websites; activistcash.com has a whole list of mostly environmentalist groups, including Greenpeace, which it bashes incessantly. That's what the whole site is about. The High North Alliance is a Norwiegan whaling club; need I say more?

...and, my dear friend, your position is consistent with that of a whaler and anti-environmentalist.Kim:Given that, supporting Sea Shepherd/Paul Watson is just a consistent position.
Zingtea:Dennis needs to give better proof than content from clearly biased web sites. Paul Watson's actions are illegal, are they? So is whaling.

I know he's sunk ships; show me something said/written by Paul Watson or a Sea Shepherd member saying that people were aboard any of those ships.DennisS:He admits sinking these ships with people aboard.
