Don't get me wrong, I'm not exactly for whaling, but Paul Watson is both a danger to his cause and his own crew; the stunts he has pulled with his crew of inexperienced volunteers on the high seas is absurd.
These whalers are ignoring international discourse and are not in waters they have dominion over. The conservationists believe they're protecting something. So is it a free for all? Because to argue the security boat was provoked by preceding incidents certainly isn't citing a case of innocent party vs attack.
