"their relentless campaign to disrupt the annual whale hunt off the dangerous waters of Antarctica"

I thought it was just for research?

I watched a few episodes of Whale Wars with the Sea Shepherd organization. They are without a doubt the most irresponsible people I have ever seen on the water. And there is no question that they are pirates.

They put themselves in harm's way and then claim to be victims when they get harmed. They epitomize the worst of the liberal activists.

The Sea Sheperd's ship the "Bob Barker" was recently severely damaged when it tried to get in between one of the whaling ships and a refueling ship. The smaller Bob Barker nearly got crushed between the two other ships and it did sustain a lot of damage. I would have cheered if it got sunk.

And I actually like whales. And wish the Japanese would stop the whale hunt.
