Japanese sink whaling ship

[OBXTucker]

Sea Shepard Conservation Society lost a really nice boat yesterday! These guys are totally nuts, but I admire their tenacity!!

Good footage here on Reuters:

Here's Sea Shepard's biased report on what happened:

And I used to think the Green Peace folks were nuts. This will make for a good segment on next "Whale Wars"!

BS Hippy "report"....dead in the water my ass! http://www.seashepherd.org/news-and-media/news-100105-4.html

And video before it all happened. Looks like they are trying the same bullshit they did on the TV show...drag a line in front of the boat trying to get it stuck in the prop. I honestly hoped they are successful doing this one day and then a storm blows up and the vessel has to make a mayday call and the crew successfully abandons ship....to me this is called PIRACY and TERRORISM!

Hmm, too bad the Japanese boats don't have a couple of Browning M2s aboard...

Holding tanks connected to water cannons would be a good non lethal weapon. Except after chili .

"a good non lethal weapon"

An oxymoron...

Bob Barker donated 5mm to buy them a new ship. Now they have 2 mother ships.

Agree the Seashepards are no more than pirates. Dont blame the japs for taking defensive measures. When I watch the show I cheer the japs.

The poop cannon is a good idea. Also good to fight Muslem Terrorists. Fact wonder if it would work on the pirates of the coast of africa.

No, that would only make them homesick.
