Whale Wars

Postby Lizardiar » Fri Jun 04, 2010 3:03 pm

As many of you likely know, Whale Wars is getting a new season.
I don't think they should have, though I don't support whaling. They are just Environmentla Terrorists...Or for those that think it's a strawman, pirates. They boarded a boat that they did not have permission to board. Then the Japanese are criticized for not letting them go back to their ship immediately. Somalians can race toward a tanker in a speedboat and the people on the ships are well within their rights to try and get rid of them (Releasing them in the middle of the ocean should work ;) ) But if a whaling ship does anything, "Oh no! They kidnapped our boarders!"

What does NSG think of Whale Whores?

I fully support Sea Shepherd. Whale wars is just a drama/TV show used to help gain publicity.

I've just had a look on Wikipedia about this 'Whale Wars'. I'm sorry, but the Sea Shepherds are by all accounts worse-behaved than Somali pirates!

I ate minke whale last week.

It tastes like beef, except it's cheaper, healthier, the animal didn't suffer as much as cattle, and it isn't endangered.

Right... How many people has Sea Shepherd killed? Hint: The number is a member of the set of integers and between -1 and 1 non inclusive.

How many things have they stolen? Hint: The number is equal to the number of people they have killed.

They are not terrorists, they sail under the Dutch flag, so aren't.
Me, I'm no hippie, but I support them. The Japanese seem to need a rather large amount of whales for "research".

I wouldn't support this if "binding" international treaties and diplomatic solutions worked. As it is, I would hand them the keys to a speedboat

If they're going to have 'whale wars', then they should help me research my idea to arm the whales with torpedoes.

So? I said worse-behaved, not worse. On the other hand, I don't see Somalis throwing bottles of acid at other human beings...

Congratulations, you can make mindless south park references. Do you have any opinions of your own that address his point regarding all the whales Japan seems to need for "research?"

I find it hilarious how incompetent the crew is. Every episode they are fubaring something, and its usually common sense stuff too. They fail epically the majority of the time.
