"JAPANESE WHALERS HAVE OUTSTANDING WARRANTS FOR THEIR ARREST. SEA SHEPHERD CLEARED. Japanese Whalers say they fear being arrested if caught. The crew of the Japanese Fleet have been convicted in Australian Federal court. However, they have fled from conviction & have failed to surrender. If any japanese whalers set foot in Australia, they are are subject to warrants for arrest. The Whalers fled and sailed back to Tokyo and are now felony fugitives from justice." worldnewsnetwork.posterous. com
The Australian case was a civil trial, not criminal. And the crew of the Japanese fleet weren't even the defendants. So unlike Paul Watson, the Japanese whalers are not felons.

Bless you Sea Shepherd. Thank you for saving the japanese people. The mercury in whale meat will soon cause Minimata's disease if more and more whale meat is consumed. Bless you Sea Shepherd! And i'm sure Japan thanks you too Sea Shepherd!

@dealerofjustice Unfortunately, there are no shortages of gullible suckers in the world (examples: info145, tasteegold7772, majalca03, hizzleyo, RecentlySeen). They believe and devour every morsel of bullshit/propaganda that SSCS feeds them with, as if they were pieces of gold or nectar from the gods. Their victims/targets are impressionable youth, the mentally disabled/racists and those who are simply too stupid & lazy to check facts for themselves to make informed decisions.
The Sea Shepherds are mutli-national, and those crewmen represent the wishes of the world's majority (and that majority are the people who WILLINGLY donate, so that the Shepherds may act in their proxy).
@info145 Please provide proof that the majority of the world agrees with the SSCS.
Because the majority of the world doesn't even care enough to join the IWC. If the majority supported the SSCS and joined the IWC then they could close the loophole that Japan uses. The fact that this hasn't happened points to your claim being false.
@info145 I guess you really live in some redneck area/boonies/parallel dimension where ignorance/racial slurs is a normal way of life. I actually kind of feel sorry for you.
@info145 You mean the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary that doesn't apply to Japan? Or the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary that was established in violation of the applicable regulations?
@dealerofjustice would that be the deformed dwarf propaganda buster? The same club footed midget who pretends hes from TEXAS when in fact hes from some north east sewer pipe? And what exactly do you expect that little piece of shit to do to help you out? Maybe you should do a little homework on that phony son of a whore and see he can hardly walk like a normal human being let alone help anyone. Sure the japanese love him but theyre a nation of blubber chewing midgets themselves.
the most hilarious part of all this is how much you japs adore and try to emulate us westerners specifically the great AMERICA!!..if your not stuck in a perpetual time warp parading around the streets in dance troupes dressed like fonzi complete with pompadours and 1950's leather jackets singing rock around the clock or some shit you lunatics are strapping skateboards to each foot and stumbling all over the place trying to be like us..now THATS just fucking too much on the funny bone for me!
You bellyache about "racism" being used against the whale killers, but you blind yourself to what is said about those who want to protect the Whales. It's always violence and wishes of death.
It's always the racism counterattack with you fuckers! Again and again. Stop trying to divert the issue from the japanese crimes.
The Sea Shepherds prevent the whaling under UN GA RES 37/7: World Charter for Nature, which specifically allows persons or associations to take action
@info145 Sorry but you are just swallowing more of Watson's lies.
He even admitted in court that he knows the UNWCfN does not give him or the SSCS any authority and does not allow him or the SSCS to do anything. That was his defense to try and get acquitted of 3 felony charges but sadly he was found guilty of one of the felonies.
@info145 Go out into the real world and interact with people in cities and other cultures, I have no doubt that you'll get a very harsh wake-up call of how delusional & wrong you are. Maybe THEN you'll see who's the "mentally limited" one here. Of course, if you decide to spend the rest of your life glued to your computer chair or isolated from modern civilized society (like you are now), you'll die being the same ignorant, delusional moron that you are now.
"A U.S. judge has refused a request to stop the Sea Shepherd activist group from disrupting Japanese whalers. Several Japanese whaling groups had been seeking a court order to prevent the Sea Shepherd group from 'engaging in physical attacks' on their ships in the Southern Ocean." w w w. abc.net.au/news/2012-02-17/whalers-lose-case-against-sea-shepherd/3836614?section=world
2/14/2012: Actress Zina Bethune has died at the age of 66 following a hit-and-run accident in Los Angeles California. The screen and stage star died in the early morning after she was struck by a vehicle while trying to help an injured animal. She's been seen in TV dramas including The Guiding Light, The Nurses, Police Story, Planet of the Apes, Route 66, CHiPs, Gunsmoke and the Naked City. She also starred in the movie: "Who’s That Knocking at my Door?"
Movie: Avatar... In it, the humans had decided they were the supreme intelligent lifeform and they should use their superior technology to take the resources of other species that they decided are of lesser intelligence (who were physically larger than them). So then the humans became the invaders of a world, killing them at will as if they're insignificant. The invaders thought only of profit. The invaded were in tune with nature and only wanted to live in peace. Seem familiar?
yes, in that giant peice of hippie propaganda the humans (in perticualr the mil) was 100% evil and the wonderfull peace loveing natives (who just happen to have poison tipped arrows) are all wonderfull and what not.
the whalers and there supporters are fishermen and scientists.
so the whalers are 'killers' for killing whales, but the sea idiots arnt even though they continualy try to sink enitre ships and kill the entier crews? granted in most cases they are more likely to sink there own ships not the whalers.
I wonder how much of the people who write here have ANY knowledge about wildlife o danger species, take care of enviroment of how a natural habitat cam be destroyed by a simply "mistake" by human beings. Theres a fact , soon we get 8 billon people on the planet, how can a planet support that if humans cant control 1 single thing and vegetal and animal cyrcle its everytime more weak??? we are doomed and u discuss without ANY single knowledge more that u can see on TV.
@yamipablo instead discuss and fight and say "u are hippie, u are this or u are that" try to make something, probabbly all of u dont know how to do ANY thing , just open the mouth and speak without think, try to Study envirometal science, or try to comunicate with someone in a real conversation, im sure u cannot do that cause u dont know shit, but u make an opinion, what a strange people
Wikileaks also released documents proving that cove guardians put in mercury in the dolphin meat they bought and claimed that it had always had mercury in it.
@dealerofjustice At least I'm not Japanese. Unlike those yellow demons, I was born with a moral consciece. It's good what you say about the mercury in the dolphin meat. I hope it kills enough dolphin eaters that they won't want to do it anymore. Let's keep our fingers crossed my good friend. Keep the good news coming, and I wish you luck with the Paul Watson fantasies.
Curing a body of cancer requires radical and invasive therapy, and therefore, curing the biosphere of the human virus will also require a radical and invasive approach.

@dealerofjustice I'm not sure if the google translator worked very well with your message. Let me see if I got it right? Your mother is a bitch, and you want me to fuck her because she's a racist? Well, I 'm not too sure about that, could you send me a picture of her? I mean, how ugly is she? I already know she's stupid, because she gave birth to a retard and didn't abort you, but if she's ugly you will have to find someone else to fuck her, because I won't touch her the fat bitch.
@dealerofjustice I'm sorry my friend, but I'm afraid that the google translator really isn't up to standards and I can't quite get the message.This is what I understood: You said something about you being a hippie and that you would be willing to pay Paul Watson to fuck your fat ass? I wouldn't know if he's into fat jap guys, but it doesn't hurt to ask. I wish you luck my friend. Best regards.
@majalca03 Shut up you filthy republican. You have no idea what you're saying. if watson isn't an eco terrorist, then explain the bomb in Norway that killed over a hundred people.
@dealerofjustice I think that now you are using better translating software, I think I got your message now, let's see, you said that Paul Watson is da bomb, and that you'd like to live with him in the Republic of Norway? Listen bud, I'm not gay, nor am I homophobic either, but seriously, you have to stop using me like I'm Dr. Ruth or something. You are going to have to solve your own sentimental problems bro.
@dealerofjustice P.S. Did I tell you that you are an idiot? What fucking bomb in Norway you dumbass!!!???? The one that the rightwing extremist set off and then proceeded to shoot a whole bunch of teenagers on an island back in July? What the fuck does that have to do with S.S.? And what do republicans have to do with anything you moron? How fucking old are dipship? Nothing you say will make me support whaling of anyking anywhere you fucktard.

can you explain exactly what 'aggressively tailing' is? isnt that what the sea idiots do when they find the factory ship? (except that the whalers dont keep the sea idiots from doing legal things, like the sea idiots do to the whalers)

REAL FACT; commercial whaling was never banned, a temporary moratorium was put in place
REAL FACT; before 1986 the Japanese used the whales caught commercially for research, when that source was eliminated their only source for research material was an increase in research whaling
REAL FACT; when you want to catch whales for ANY reason your best choice is a whale-hunting ship
the one who burns the trees trying to kill the logers. just becuase you are doing bad things for a 'good' reason doenst make them good things. the sea idiots are TERRORISTS. as such they should be shot when they illigaly board anouthers vessel.
are non-endangered whales any more 'precious' then deer? cows? mice? cockroaches?
so you are admitting that you only care about 'cute' animals? if its not cute enough for you, you dont care if people kill it? whales have lots more meat then bugs (and they taste a hell of a lot better).
@info145 Your comment on apes is an opinion just like the implication that whales are the second most intelligent is also just your opinion. And of course whale isn't a species it is a diverse group just like apes.
Hominoidea contains two families of living (extant) species:
Hylobatidae consists of four genera and sixteen species of gibbon, including the lar gibbon and the siamang. They are commonly referred to as lesser apes.
Hominidae consists of orangutans, gorillas, common chimpanzees, bonobos and humans. Alternatively, the hominidae family are collectively described as the great apes.
@info145 Well isn't that thrilling. Of course it has nothing to do with anything I have posted. But if posting random shit that is totally off topic makes you happy, who I am to tell you to stop
@info145 Well your paranoid fantasy are no concern of mine. But again if it makes you happy go for it. Don't worry that it makes you look mentally ill.
LOL, wow, are you an untruther also (the 9/11 = inside job crowd)? they also think that anyone who disagrees with them must be just one person under multiple names. the simple fact is that the sea idiots are 100% ILLEGAL and the whalers are 100% LEGAL
i love how you switch between the words 'commonly' and 'collectively'. humans are COMMONLY described in the catagory of 'great ape'. doesnt mean that humans are the SAME (as you claimed) as apes. when you are dealing with matters of 'intelligence' there is a lot more to it then what scientific 'family' they come from.
@DTofMN Are you that stupid? Chimps are the 2nd smartest species in the world second to humans and orangutans are the 4th (both of whom are apes). and dolphins are the second smartest animals (who are essentially whales) there have been studies that show evidence of the Ape's and dolphin's comprehensive abilities and logic. Indo wasn't saying all species of apes and whales were smart, but just certain species within the family.
@hizzleyo How do you know what indo (whoever that is) was saying? And if he only meant certain species then he should say certain species, shouldn't he?
Dolphins are not whales they are dolphins.
And as I said, the definition of what intelligence is in humans and the measurement of intelligence in humans are both difficult and contentious. So claim anything about how some other animal's intelligence compares to humans is simply an opinion.
@DTofMN actually, it's true that whales and intelligent animals can be killed as long as it's for food, but chimps and other animals were tested for logic and comprehension and it's solid evidence.
@DTofMN matter of opinion? Ha after all the posts you made, I couldn't think you could possibly get dumber, but you just topped it. You might as well say that humans being the most intelligent creatures is a matter of opinion.
@hizzleyo Well humans being the most intelligent animal is an opinion. Since humans design the tests and decide on what constitutes intelligence it is only to be expected that humans would rate as number one.
actauly humans split away from 'apes' to our own species eons ago. if you are hanging out with sea idiots i see how you can have missed that little change. so, humans are the smartest, followed by some simians, followed by MANY differnt mammals, THEN come mammals such as whales... anywho... are you saying that we should only care about 'smart' animals? and you dont care how we kill the rest of them?
oh and killing a few hundred minki whales wont 'kill' the ocean.
great, you are a spelling nazi also? hate to break it to you, but this in the net. not exaclty a bastion of writen etiquette. besides i refuse to spell/topo check for people who dont fact check there statements
@hizzleyo What a joker you are. If the SSCS was effective at stopping fin whales being killed then why didn't they kill 50 fin whales per year before the SSCS even started coming to the Antarctic? And why have they killed more fin whales since the SSCS started their Antarctic campaigns than they killed before the SSCS's campaigns? And why hasn't the SSCS done anything about Iceland killing over 250 fin whales in the last 2 years?
@DTofMN SSCS is on them at the beginning of the season and while they are on the run, they don't have too much time to kill whales. SSCS has been to Iceland already.
@DTofMN I quote you saying "Oh and just because he is racist against one group doesn't mean he can't be racist against another group also. Then there is the fact that people can change their attitudes becoming more or less racist over time."
seems to me like you're accusing him of being racist to the Norwegians too.
@hizzleyo Well then you need to get your seeming ability checked. That statement doesn't accuse him of being racist toward anybody. It claims that peoples attitudes, including being racist, can change over time and that someone can be racist against more than one racial group.
@DTofMN At this point I have no idea what you're even saying. At one point you said that PW was racist to the Japanese for not using similar tactics against other people and when I gave you an instance of them doing worse to other people, you said that he was racist to both peoples. Now you're saying he's not racist to anyone? You're such a two face.
@hizzleyo That the Netherlands decided not to extradite him. Doesn't say anything about guilt or innocence.
Have you ever heard of Roman Polanski? He admitted to and was convicted of raping a child, yet Switzerland won't extradite him. Does that mean he is innocent?
btw, its not a 'quota', its a MAX. if they dont feel the need to take 50 samples for the study, then they dont. isnt that just proof that they really are doing the research and not just whaleing as you guys claim?
@GGDaolonWong And what proof of that claim do you have? I mean in years before the SSCS even showed up in the Antarctic the Japanese didn't achieve their quota.
really? they 'try'? so every year before the sea idiots showed up (and all the years the sea idiots didnt find them or didnt get near the factory ship) they caught 100% of there 'quota'? i would love to see the proof of that. whats your source?
@spcantwell If you can show me an instance before the sea shepherds showed up that the whalers were 863 whales under their quota, I will drop my claim.
well, most years before the sea idiots started attacking perfectly legal whalers, they didnt reach the maximum number. so does that mean you will drop your claims?
besides YOU are the one claiming that they allways caught all of there 'quota' each year before. so YOU need to prove that claim
so you admit that takeing even a thousand minke whales (out of the MILLION or so in the southern ocean alone) wont?
the fin whale pop is estimated between 15000 and 38000 (depending on who you ask) in the southern ocean. with a few hundred thousands elsewhere. so '50' a year isnt going to do much against that number either.
btw, how do you think that population surveys are done? by KILLING some to find out age/sex/number of calfs/health/diet/etc... air photos are USELESS
@spcantwell Final circumpolar estimates from the International Whaling Commission (IWC) IDCR/SOWER population surveys (1978/79-2003/04) were 338,000 — only 39% of the 1985/86-1990/91 surveys.
So you need to kill species to find out whether you can kill them or not?
@GGDaolonWong First your numbers make no sense. The population from 1978/79-2003/04 is higher than from 1985/86-1990/9, which fall in the middle of the original date range, so what do you mean did numbers increase after a drop in the middle years?
But second the last estimate from the IWC is 1982/83 - 1988/89 population of 761,000. They haven't issued an extimated population since then.
sorry, your numbers are wrong. i want to be specific though. which species are you talking about?
as for lethal vs non lethal research look at
icrwhale. org/pdf/04-B-jen. pdf (page 8)
remember you cant knock out a whale and take blood samples, and forceing one to remain on the surface for a second longer then it wants would lead to the destruction of a boat (and possible death of scientists)
@spcantwell You can actually. I don't have the source on me but I will pull it up later but an American biologist used high end tranquilizers to knock whales out and collect blood and tissue samples and was able to find out everything he needed to know about the whales, all without killing the whale. and the whalers have left their original survey area for this year, adding weight to the fact that they're not interested in research
@GGDaolonWong Good for him. The Japanese obviously aren't trying to find out the same things as the American biologist.
Oh and the whole area is covered by the research plan and for easy of research and to save time and money they planned to alternate between the east and west sides of the area in alternate years. But changing conditions like weather or ice conditions can cause them to alter the plan. It is still all research area.
@DTofMN Hey man. are these guys pissing you off too? send a message to PropogandaBuster or anyone else who seems to be against Sea Shepherd and tell them to help out here and slam these sheep.
i never said it would. the question becomes WHY stop them? what makes NON-ENDAGERED whales so speical? remember watson has said on multible occasions that he wants to stop ALL forms of fishing EVERYWHERE. that would hurt the economy of many countries.
no, they are attacking people who they dont like. they are trying to KILL people who do something that they dont agree with.
as far as i am concerned they should be treated EXACTLY like the 'pirates' they pretend they are.... and they should be hung as soon as they come into port (or killed on the high seas if they board someone else vessel with out ther permision)
The japanese use the old "racism gambit": Claiming the rest of the world is racist and they are not. Those foolish enough to believe it will think the japanese are the helpless victims under attack while they're whaling. Any robot minded drones of the world would then be doing their dirtywork for them. Everything the Sea Shepherds do is to bring attention to what happens in the Southern Ocean. The decent people of the world are against whaling. The Sea Shepherds are doing as THOSE people wish!
@DTofMN All i can find still happening in the NO since 1993 is,Norway 300-400 ayear,and IceLand under a permit in their own waters 200 Common Minke Whales since 2003,and a smattering of Aboriginal permits,and Japans research.For the IWC I should add.Why would the Sea Sheperd go there?Are Whales more endangered in the NO?Mostly seems everybody there is happy to research or Hunt the nests they shit in.
@poopy2010tative The Sea Shepherd would go there because they CLAIM they want to stop ALL whaling, not just Japanese whaling in the Southern Ocean. Plus the Japanese whaling in the North Pacific is still under research permits which SSCS claim are illegal.
And yes the species hunted in the North Pacific and Atlantic are listed by the IUCN as more endangered than the Antarctic Minke.
@DTofMN Well it's obvious then.Limited resourses,and friendlier waters.I am sure they do what they can.What Japan is doing seems to be legal under the IWC rules.Everybody should go to theIWC home page and read"Statement on the future of the IWC.Small working group on the future of the IWC,2-4 march 2010,ST.Pete Beach Florida USA.Then remember the IWC is not a conservation group.They are in the business of growing whales to hunt again one day.
@DTofMN the North Pacific is too close to Japan and the coast guard might get involved and arrest them. plus there is no sanctuary established in the north pacific
@hizzleyo But there is still a moratorium on the whole globe isn't there? So since the SSCS claim the research permits aren't legal, then the existence of a sanctuary has no relevance.
And I thought Watson has said over and over that he wants to see whaling put on trial, wouldn't an arrest and trial give him his wish?
Despite their claims to be willing to die for the whales they are not even willing to get arrested. I guess they are more worried about themselves than the whales.
November 1986: "SSCS activists return to Iceland and take action against illegal Icelandic whaling operations. Sea Shepherd members Rod Coronado and David Howitt engineer the sinking of two of Iceland's four whaling ships in Reykjavik harbor.
They also destroy the whale processing station at Hvalfjodur. This mission shuts down Icelandic commercial whaling activities for the next 16 years. The attack becomes a headline story worldwide."
@info145 Your joking right? That's like saying he has Japanese friends so he can't be a racists. Someone who is a general douche and fucks with lots of people can still be a racist. Although I guess you could make the claim he hates all humans.
I would use a rocket launcher to stop this idiot japanese murders :)

Because the majority of the world doesn't even care enough to join the IWC. If the majority supported the SSCS and joined the IWC then they could close the loophole that Japan uses. The fact that this hasn't happened points to your claim being false.

Movie: Avatar... In it, the humans had decided they were the supreme intelligent lifeform and they should use their superior technology to take the resources of other species that they decided are of lesser intelligence (who were physically larger than them). So then the humans became the invaders of a world, killing them at will as if they're insignificant. The invaders thought only of profit.

At one point you said that PW was racist to the Japanese for not using similar tactics against other people and when I gave you an instance of them doing worse to other people, you said that he was racist to both peoples. Now you're saying he's not racist to anyone? You're such a two face.

@DTofMN and the Netherlands didn't extradite him so what does that tell you?
hizzleyo 2 weeks ago
@hizzleyo That the Netherlands decided not to extradite him. Doesn't say anything about guilt or innocence.
Have you ever heard of Roman Polanski? He admitted to and was convicted of raping a child, yet Switzerland won't extradite him. Does that mean he is innocent?

btw, its not a 'quota', its a MAX. if they dont feel the need to take 50 samples for the study, then they dont. isnt that just proof that they really are doing the research and not just whaleing as you guys claim?

@spcantwell It's a max but the ICR tries to achieve the quota.

@GGDaolonWong And what proof of that claim do you have?

@GGDaolonWong And what proof of that claim do you have? I mean in years before the SSCS even showed up in the Antarctic the Japanese didn't achieve their quota.

@GGDaolonWong
really? they 'try'? so every year before the sea idiots showed up (and all the years the sea idiots didnt find them or didnt get near the factory ship) they caught 100% of there 'quota'? i would love to see the proof of that. whats your source?
spcantwell 2 weeks ago
@spcantwell If you can show me an instance before the sea shepherds showed up that the whalers were 863 whales under their quota, I will drop my claim.
GGDaolonWong 1 week ago
@GGDaolonWong
well, most years before the sea idiots started attacking perfectly legal whalers, they didnt reach the maximum number. so does that mean you will drop your claims?
besides YOU are the one claiming that they allways caught all of there 'quota' each year before. so YOU need to prove that claim

@hizzleyo
so you admit that takeing even a thousand minke whales (out of the MILLION or so in the southern ocean alone) wont?
the fin whale pop is estimated between 15000 and 38000 (depending on who you ask) in the southern ocean. with a few hundred thousands elsewhere. so '50' a year isnt going to do much against that number either.
btw, how do you think that population surveys are done? by KILLING some to find out age/sex/number of calfs/health/diet/etc... air photos are USELESS
spcantwell 2 weeks ago
@spcantwell Final circumpolar estimates from the International Whaling Commission (IWC) IDCR/SOWER population surveys (1978/79-2003/04) were 338,000 — only 39% of the 1985/86-1990/91 surveys.
So you need to kill species to find out whether you can kill them or not?
GGDaolonWong 2 weeks ago
@GGDaolonWong First your numbers make no sense. The population from 1978/79-2003/04 is higher than from 1985/86-1990/9, which fall in the middle of the original date range, so what do you mean did numbers increase after a drop in the middle years?
But second the last estimate from the IWC is 1982/83 - 1988/89 population of 761,000. They haven't issued an extimated population since then.

@GGDaolonWong
sorry, your numbers are wrong. i want to be specific though. which species are you talking about?
as for lethal vs non lethal research look at
icrwhale. org/pdf/04-B-jen. pdf (page 8)
remember you cant knock out a whale and take blood samples, and forceing one to remain on the surface for a second longer then it wants would lead to the destruction of a boat (and possible death of scientists)
spcantwell 2 weeks ago
@spcantwell You can actually. I don't have the source on me but I will pull it up later but an American biologist used high end tranquilizers to knock whales out and collect blood and tissue samples and was able to find out everything he needed to know about the whales, all without killing the whale. and the whalers have left their original survey area for this year, adding weight to the fact that they're not interested in research
GGDaolonWong 1 week ago
@GGDaolonWong
you can what? knock a whale out? are you f-ing nuts? i would love to see that source. until you show me them knocking one out i wont belive it.
how does takeing skin/blood samples show what the whales are eating? or how long they lived? or how many calfs they had?
spcantwell 1 week ago
@GGDaolonWong Good for him. The Japanese obviously aren't trying to find out the same things as the American biologist.
Oh and the whole area is covered by the research plan and for easy of research and to save time and money they planned to alternate between the east and west sides of the area in alternate years. But changing conditions like weather or ice conditions can cause them to alter the plan. It is still all research area.

@DTofMN Hey man. are these guys pissing you off too? send a message to PropogandaBuster or anyone else who seems to be against Sea Shepherd and tell them to help out here and slam these sheep.

@spcantwell If you look at it that way, stopping a few whalers from killing a couple hundred whales isn't really going to kill the Japanese economy.
hizzleyo 2 weeks ago
@hizzleyo
i never said it would. the question becomes WHY stop them? what makes NON-ENDAGERED whales so speical? remember watson has said on multible occasions that he wants to stop ALL forms of fishing EVERYWHERE. that would hurt the economy of many countries.
spcantwell 2 weeks ago
@spcantwell They believe in fighting for the planet so they will do what it takes. I too can ask: Why stop the Sea Shepherds from stopping them?
hizzleyo 1 week ago
@hizzleyo Because the SSCS is breaking the law, while the whalers aren't breaking the law.
DTofMN 1 week ago
@hizzleyo
no, they are attacking people who they dont like. they are trying to KILL people who do something that they dont agree with.
as far as i am concerned they should be treated EXACTLY like the 'pirates' they pretend they are.... and they should be hung as soon as they come into port (or killed on the high seas if they board someone else vessel with out ther permision)

The japanese use the old "racism gambit": Claiming the rest of the world is racist and they are not. Those foolish enough to believe it will think the japanese are the helpless victims under attack while they're whaling. Any robot minded drones of the world would then be doing their dirtywork for them. Everything the Sea Shepherds do is to bring attention to what happens in the Southern Ocean. The decent people of the world are against whaling. The Sea Shepherds are doing as THOSE people wish!

@info145 Then why don't the Sea Shepherd bring attention to what happens in the North Atlantic or the North Pacific.
DTofMN 3 weeks ago
@DTofMN All i can find still happening in the NO since 1993 is,Norway 300-400 ayear,and IceLand under a permit in their own waters 200 Common Minke Whales since 2003,and a smattering of Aboriginal permits,and Japans research.For the IWC I should add.Why would the Sea Sheperd go there?Are Whales more endangered in the NO?Mostly seems everybody there is happy to research or Hunt the nests they shit in.
poopy2010tative 3 weeks ago
@poopy2010tative The Sea Shepherd would go there because they CLAIM they want to stop ALL whaling, not just Japanese whaling in the Southern Ocean. Plus the Japanese whaling in the North Pacific is still under research permits which SSCS claim are illegal.
And yes the species hunted in the North Pacific and Atlantic are listed by the IUCN as more endangered than the Antarctic Minke.
DTofMN 3 weeks ago
@DTofMN Well it's obvious then.Limited resourses,and friendlier waters.I am sure they do what they can.What Japan is doing seems to be legal under the IWC rules.Everybody should go to theIWC home page and read"Statement on the future of the IWC.Small working group on the future of the IWC,2-4 march 2010,ST.Pete Beach Florida USA.Then remember the IWC is not a conservation group.They are in the business of growing whales to hunt again one day.
poopy2010tative 3 weeks ago
@DTofMN the North Pacific is too close to Japan and the coast guard might get involved and arrest them. plus there is no sanctuary established in the north pacific
hizzleyo 3 weeks ago
@hizzleyo But there is still a moratorium on the whole globe isn't there? So since the SSCS claim the research permits aren't legal, then the existence of a sanctuary has no relevance.
And I thought Watson has said over and over that he wants to see whaling put on trial, wouldn't an arrest and trial give him his wish?
Despite their claims to be willing to die for the whales they are not even willing to get arrested. I guess they are more worried about themselves than the whales.

@DTofMN
November 1986: "SSCS activists return to Iceland and take action against illegal Icelandic whaling operations. Sea Shepherd members Rod Coronado and David Howitt engineer the sinking of two of Iceland's four whaling ships in Reykjavik harbor.
They also destroy the whale processing station at Hvalfjodur. This mission shuts down Icelandic commercial whaling activities for the next 16 years. The attack becomes a headline story worldwide."

@info145 And they haven't been back since. History is fine but hardly relevant when we are talking the current whaling situation.

Why was Captain Watson arrested in his past?:
1) Spraying paint on a baby seal so the poacher wouldn't want to kill it for its fur. That was Canada.
2) Assault. He got into a fight with someone about to kill sharks for their fins. That was Costa Rica.
3) Harassment of Cuban and Spanish fishing boats off the coast of Newfoundland.
ARE YOU SEEING A TREND? He did not do those things in Japan! Race is NOT a factor!
(The arrest warrant Japan issued is less than insignificant)
info145 3 weeks ago
@info145 Your joking right? That's like saying he has Japanese friends so he can't be a racists. Someone who is a general douche and fucks with lots of people can still be a racist. Although I guess you could make the claim he hates all humans.
