I'm not saying this because I watched the South Park parody, but was it just me, or did nothing at all happen in this segment?

they r useless

[TheSheenkai1]

what could they do? they can just pressure them and disturb, it's their fighting way.

I know that what the Japanese are doing is extremely wrong and just shouldn't be done, but what the Sea Shepherd and her crew are doing is blatent terrorism. There's got to be a better way to stop Japanese whaling than stooping to such low levels like this. I'm not sure what it is, but I'm sure that something's out there, it's just gotta be.

i think they were chasing the whaler boat away, they weren't supposed to do anything

12/26/2011: "SSCS, the organization defending whales against asshole Japanese whalers on "researcher" cosplay, have a powerful new weapon: unmanned aerial vehicles. They have located a Japanese whaling fleet 1,000 miles north of the Southern Ocean whale sanctuary using a drone. Last year SSCS ships blocked the Japanese whalers saving 858 whales out of 1,035 - the number of whales the Japanese had planned to hunt down." gizmodo. com/5871086/sea-shepherd-now-u­sing-drones-to-hunt-japanese-w­halers

@info145 Regarding the last line of your comment, going onto a boat to willingly pirate other boats is not a "charity" or "donation", it is a "crime". If you try to make the argument that international law says they cannot kill whales but they do it anyway, I will simply point out that there has been a legal exception to that law made for Japan, if you wish to protest on the grounds that the law is wrong I have no problem with that. As of right now the law stands.

@info145 Well sorry but I assumed that you cared about what I think because your taking time to try and change what I think. And personally I care about what you think because I think one less person being mislead overall improves society, if only by a little.

Also why are you jumping to racism? Nothing I said had anything to do with racism, I was simply pointing out the foolishness of trying to amplify your cultural values in order to bypass the laws of other countries. Your opinion is not fact
