I agree 100% that this man, (Shepard of the Sea) is a nuisance to human beings. Animals of the sea have been a part of human sustenance as recorded often in the bible, on Egyptian hieroglyphics, and through archaeological cave finds. Island communities use food from the sea as the number one way of survival. Japan is an island nation, one of many Asian countries that utilizes most portions of the fish and of other aquatic animals they retrieve from the seas. Other countries including the USA, consume a small portion of the fish (meat filets) and discard that remaining as waste. Do not get me wrong, I love the United States.
My main point as a fish eater is this man and his crew of sympathetic lunatics have placed human lives, including their own crew in serious danger, along with consuming outrageous amounts of fuel to justify their cause. Can you say hypocrisy in the name of saving the environment, or is it a way to boost ratings, get donations and earn a living as a terrorist?
Educate to save the environment but do not use fear tactics as so many other non-profit groups, swimming in the cash flow, often do to force or coerce conversion to the church of the environment.
