Interesting.
1. I have a problem with the "trained" police executing people without a trial.
2. They are not private fishing vessels. Even the Japanese will tell you that they are "research" ships, which is a load of shit.
3. No one else will enforce the international ban on whaling, so Paul Watson created Sea Shepard and decided to do it himself. Where are your "trained police"? Why aren't the duly appointed law enforcers shutting down Japan's illegal whaling? Why isn't the Australian government enforcing their own sanctuary?

Some facts:

The Sea Shepard crew are non-violent. The Japanese whalers have deliberately sunk one boat already, and kidnapped three people. One of them they (the Japanese) attempted to throw overboard which, in the Antarctic, is murder. Then they were beaten and lashed to the side of the ship. They're harvesting whales by the thousands to serve on dinner plates in Japanese restaurants. This is illegal. You support the police but you do not support the law? That's ass backwards in my books.

Still think they are peaceful fishing vessels?

Q: What do you call a "sanctuary" without enforcement?
A: Open space for poachers.
