as much as i admire the cause, they ran in to the Japanese boat, watch the thrust from the sponsons.

All for the whales, but why aren't they charged as pirates?

Yes i see that. A terrible decision that could have gotten all aboard killed. Well like Watson said, "people have to risk their life to protect the whales". Looks like Bethune took him seriously. :rolleyes:

Right or wrong , you would think common sense might play in there some where . Or not.

I can't even watch this show. I completely agree that this is a worthwhile cause. I have LOTS of issues with the way these people go about it. They are a bit wacko. Which is probably an understatement, but you get the idea. :D

I guess the cross bow and arrows don't count as weapons? What about the cannon they have been showing on this weeks preview??? That doesn't count as a weapon:party-smiley-004::coolcowboy:
