    Re: Whale wars!

    I've said all of this before in a similar thread, but I guess I'll say it again. First of all, Japan is not the only country hunting whales. There are at least 2 others that do this as well. If it is part of their culture, then so be it. Secondly, Whale Wars is a joke. It's a "made for TV" drama. Supposedly, this has been going on for years, yet, only since it has beeen made into a tv show has it been escalating every season with both sides aquiring new "weapons" and tactics and such. They always say how they are willing to die for the whales, yet, how many have actually sacrificed their life to save a whale? How many times are people on this site reprimanded or criticised for even hinting at not abiding by a local, state, or federal law? Yet, people will openly support a group of eco-terrorist who, by their own admission, publicly claim to be pirates, and use pirate tactics (ie. initiating assaults, ramming, illegal boarding, etc...). They have classified themselves in the same group with Somali and Malaysian PIRATES, but they go unpunished. There are other groups who use media, as well as, strong-arm, and underhanded tactics to garner public support in the name of animal protection, HSUS and PETA. Do you support them as well?...
