We had to have teams of guys with charged up fire hoses to spray at them to keep them from boarding the ship. One guy even got onto the anchor before the sprayed him off and into the water.
aw man... that sounds like a really fun job to me.

Liberals, however, will destroy the same mound claiming they were saving it and saving the environment. So they have to lie to themselves more than conservatives who have a "F-uck the environment" mentality. Liberals are as heartless but they hate to think of themselves that way so they have to rationalize. Conservatives don't care how heartless they are being. To them it's just, "Awwww, cry me a river so I can pollute it for you!" As long as it pisses liberals off then they'll do it and f-uck all. Liberals are the same about conservatives but make up narratives that deny it otherwise they wouldn't be able to distinguish themselves from the conservatives they hate so much.
how about the fact that conservatives lie to themselves about global warming because it makes it inconvenient for business? if they were like you say then their line of rhetoric would be "**** the environment, money over everything." or when it comes to evolution their rhetoric would be "**** any theory that disagrees with the bible." instead they put most of their effort into disproving solid science. long story short: everyone is full of **** (except for me).

Save the whales how?? By chasing Japanese ships all over the place?? The Japanese are not and never were the cause of the whale's problem. At first it was the whalers of Europe and America that did it but since the 20th century, it has been because we are destroying the whale's food sources (fish stocks and plankton) and habitat:

Australia

Half of Great Barrier Reef Lost in Past 3 Decades

Warming waters linked to giant jellyfish outbreaks, Sea of Japan | Global Warming Effects

Great Pacific Garbage Patch - National Geographic Education

You want to save the whale, start there; otherwise don't bother.

Totally. But not stopping a practice that's cutting down endangered species' numbers is retarded. Should we let poachers kill elephants for ivory just because we're not doing enough to preserve their habitat?

The whale's habitat and food sources are vanishing at an unsustainable rate. If you have too many whales, it vanishes that much quicker. Their numbers must be necessarily small because a single adult humpback whale eats 5000 lbs or more of plankton a day--two and half tons--every day. With plankton vanishing faster than it can reproduce, how long do you think that can go on?

The whale will be extinct or nearly extinct by 2100 and will go the route of other animals as the honeybee, the tiger, the polar bear, the koala bear and the rhinoceros. I just read today that a Northern white rhino died leaving only 4 or 5 left--in the world--and those live in captivity. And we can't keep whales in captivity like that, it has already been discussed and dismissed as unworkable.

We needed to address this problem decades ago and didn't and so now we pay the price. And pointing fingers is just stupid.

But that's all you've been doing. Pointing fingers at Greenpeace for being hypocrites. Pointing fingers at Quakers for killing so many whales in the first place. Now all you're doing is saying to let the Japanese kill whales, almost as if you just want to spite Greenpeace.
