Well, we do not use cosmetics.

While I think their methods could use a bit of tweaking (not throwing acid or boarding the ships) their hearts are in the right place. They are passionate about something and they are trying to make change. The thing is, even with media education, most people just don't care. I mean, as long as someone can get their favorite shade of lipstick from Walmart, who cares about some whales getting killed over near Japan. The Sea Shepard knows this and knows that drastic measures are needed to make immediate change. If there was a house of children who were being abused and you knew they were being abused, you would not knock kindly on the door and ask them to stop abusing the children. You would bust down that door and save the children inside. These people are doing the same thing. They are actively saving whales while educating people by way of television.
