Advocate the death penalty for violating this ban, do you?

You're saying it is OK to kill to enforce the ban. What's the difference?

I hope that if Watson actually follows through with his threat that no whale or humans get killed or maimed. But I will take the side of Watson and the Whales any day over a bunch of exploitive money grubbers simply looking to make a few dollars off the industrial level slaughter of dozens of whales.
So you hope his attempt at murder is unsuccessful. But you support the attempt.

Yes, good luck to the would-be mass murderer. Three cheers! Hip-Hip-Hooray!
