Whale Wars, anybody watch - Page 26

personally i like the show and the cause, but i laugh at a lot of the same things you guys point out.

What would be some better / more effective ways to handle it in your opinions?
keep in mind that they cannot use lethal force.

If these people were at the UN making an intelligent and reasoned pose on the whale's behalf, I'd be somewhat on their side. Provided their numbers and claims were legit...but gallivanting across the ocean preventing hard working men from making a living, endangering their lives and in many cases SHOWBOATING ..."look at me, I'm so fearless and heroic! ". Well, I, for one, have zero respect for them whatsoever...

What they should do is what is boring if they are going to sail out there. It would make boring TV, but they should just get behind the factory ship and sit there. Don't launch the helicopter and delta to paint the research sign, don't put pete on the whaler to go back to Japan. Just sit there and block the whale ramp. Whaling doesn't happen, no one is endangered. It would make crappy TV though because they would just putt around the southern ocean following the factory ship.

That and concentrate on making what the Japanese are doing actually illegal. Lobby the Japanese government, back candidates that are anti-whaling, win the hearts and minds of the Japanese people.

No chance on changing hearts and minds....the Japanese LOVE their aphrodisiacs and soups.

Yeah, no chance on changing the japanese. No chance in hell. Another group tried to go over to japan and talk to people there about dolphins or some kind of fish or something. They got run off and almost killed.
