Reply #38: When are these guys going to be sunk? [View All]

If they keep interrupting vessels like this, they are eventually going to get something besides small-arms fire. Like a TOW missile amidships, or in their crew quarters.

I feel sorry for the whales and all that, but these guys need to understand that when you protest, you had better be prepared to die. They learned that lesson at Kent State a few decades ago. Looks like it's time for the lesson to be learned again.

And when it happens...and I say when, not if...you shouldn't be surprised if none of the commercial interests or soverign governments express nothing more than conventional regrets. In most boards of inquiry, the eco-nuts can be considered pirates. And are probably travelling in the company of real, blackmailing, murdering pirates. And you know what fate befell pirates, except in Disney movies?
