So your answer to the issue is that people should have just left the ships completely alone and let them do what they want to do? If no one ever protested and acted against the whalers then we would have allowed the whales to be hunted to extinction. All this in the name of something people don't really need. We don't need to hunt whales for food or fish oil anymore. The Japanese hunt whales for the simple fact that some rich people in Japan like the taste of whale. The Japanese like a lot of strange things (used girl panties are a prime example).
Anyway. The Japanese have decided to delay their "research" hunting of humpback whales for two years while the subject is debated.
Japan to Drop Humpback Whale Hunt
I wonder if you think that people should have left the other degraders of the environment alone instead of trying to fight them?
To Moon: I haven't searched the archives but I wonder if you protested in these forums over the Japanese mass executions of Dolphins or just the political issue that caught your eye?
Love and Kisses,
