[QUOTE=lolwutdude;20245837]most likely trying to get close enough to hose the bastards down, not trying to ram it, they're smart enough to know that shit looks like it can ram.[/QUOTE]
I'm sure they weren't trying to ram them. They aren't stupid. However they did confront them which resulted in the crash. Had it been the Sea Shepherds who came up to the whalers and then crashed it would have been their fault but this time it's the other way around.

[QUOTE=Armotekma;20245834]That's like harassing a bunch of jocks at your school, throwing shit at them, following them around then expecting not to get your ass whipped[/QUOTE]
Then the Jocks go to detention/juvie/get expelled. The Japanese are breaking more laws then the Sea Shepherds here.
This guy's a badass.
Though I'd choose the Renegade option. Knocking everyone on board out and sailing the ship into New Zealand.
Added some video to the OP.
Finally someone put that fatass in his place.

This one showing him run up to the bridge.
Ok fuck-it. It's not letting me put media tags around that.
Why are you guys against the Sea Shepherd society? They're not batshit insane like PETA - I think saving endangered whales is a noble goal.
I said he's a badass and it's common knowledge that if you don't agree with me you are wrong and are an idiot.

cause they're manipulative jackasses
they portray whalers as some psychopaths who has no feelings and kill whales out of joy.
Whalers are usually family men who whales because they needs that paycheck to support their family. But do they show that side of the story? No. They just portray theirs and make themselves look like honorable crusaders.
They also make shit up like their captain getting shot when there is no sound of it whatsoever.
I didn't say shit about the Sea Shepherd society, it's just this guy who's a badass.

Their in illegal waters. Go back to the pacific if you want to do legitimate business and make an honest living.

PETA is preferable to Sea Shepherd.

You can see what they were trying to do, make the harpoon ship return to port either way.
But it doesn't actually matter, because he boarded their ship, and he doesn't exactly have many bargaining chips. They'll probably just try and forcefully return him, or transfer him to the factory ship to be put under guard for the rest of the whaling season.

they could just float for awhile until no one can see them then kill the Captain without anyone knowing. Their explanation? He jumped.

Sea Shepherd has two ships and a helicopter on their ass 24/7. Floating would just get them surrounded. This would just add another offense onto the whalers record.

They could, it's perfectly viable, it happens all the time - I know my dad threw a couple of stoways over board when he worked on a VLCC. But their under the spotlight and I doubt they would get away with it without a massive inquiry. The factory ship probably has plenty of space and supplies to hold him, and that won't bring them much heat.
I don't support what the Japanese are doing, but I don't support SS putting their own people, and the Japanese crewmen at risk. Sea Shepherd is way out of line ramming ships, boarding ships and throwing things at ships.

That's what I would do. He boarded the ship which is an act of hostility. They can detain the captain until Japan agrees to release him.
I think that was a whale of a catch :smug:
I'd love to sit here and shoot down your arguments all night, but unfortunately I have to go to bed.

They arrested Peter Bethune, not Paul Watson. :v:
Even though Peter Bethune said he refuses to be transfered to a Coastguard or Navy ship, the Japanese can just ask them to forcefully remove him and arrest him.
