You say conservationists, I say irresponsible clowns bordering on eco-terrorists.

I actually asked Gaurang to put this up, Im a 100% supporter of Sea Shepherd, they did some amazing stuff back in the OTT asian whaling days. My Mum was an avid supporter and even from a young age I remember watching VHS's of the Original Sea Shepherd raming whaling ships. Oh the good old days, best not get me started.

Tom - Don't get me wrong here. I'm all for conservation and saving whales, I just don't agree with the way they operate and I certainly don't agree that putting peoples lives at risk is acceptable to reach their goal. I just don't believe that the end always justifies the means. I live in Northern Ireland and quite frankly that excuse has been used for decades, usually when an innocent person has been killed. I could say the same for hundreds of places all over the world and from what I can see, the only result of violent behaviour is more violent behaviour.

So to save you getting started, we will just agree to disagree.

Yeah I also have mixed feelings about it. I'm one of the types to just donate money and put it right out of my mind. They are extremely cavalier with peoples lives out there. I support what they are doing, but its the "how" that bothers me. But you know what, at least they are actively doing something. Unlike myself sitting in a chair, may or may not be eating cheetos. Thousand of people die everyday, from things like lung cancer from smoking too much, or they get hit by buses, or get mauled by a circus tigers. So it does make sense to make a sacrifice for something you believe in, and no one can take it away from them. So good job to them! I sure as heck wouldn't be brave enough. I also don't have an Iphone.

Well if we are quoting famous words then there is this.
