Admiral Coco Puffs (Paul Watson) has lost more flag ships than the Japanese Navy in the 40s.

Good. A call for more contributions for these maniacs is less $$$ going to the Obama re-election WTF campaign. Win-win.

This is my heritage. Dad went to sea on one of these when he was NINE years old. It was brutal and dangerous enough putting fresh fish on America's Tables without being harassed by Hippies who decide to make up their own international rules as they go along. I could almost understand the hippies caring about Whales, as they are intelligent Mammals, But TUNA?????

Admiral Coco Puffs (Paul Watson) has lost more flag ships than the Japanese Navy in the 40s. LOL!!! OMG I'm calling my dad to tell him that one.
I told my friend about the ship being seized and he asked, "How come they didn't tie cement to their shoes and throw them overboard?"
But expecting to get trashed tomorrow during the Whale Wars Drinking Game. I'll look at past threads and try and come up with some more (DETAILED) rules so that I'm not obliterated by the first commercial.

Dear [Stinking FReeper Troll],
I need your help to free the Steve! You may have heard about the dire situation with our flagship vessel, the Steve Irwin. This issue is so urgent that I have recorded a special call to action to share with you. Watch the video!
Never has the need for your help and support been greater! Our ocean-defending vessel the Steve Irwin has been detained by the UK courts because of a civil lawsuit brought against Sea Shepherd by a Maltese company Fish and Fish Limited. This is due to our actions that saved 800+ illegally caught bluefin tuna during Operation Blue Rage 2010.
Now, unless we post a bond for USD$1,411,692.87, the Steve Irwin will be held indefinitely and possibly sold. This detainment is delaying our ship and crew from being able to get to the Faeroe Islands to protect endangered pilot whales who are mercilessly being slaughtered as I write to you. Further, this will inhibit our effectiveness to defend whales from the Japanese whaling fleet in the Southern Ocean Whale Sanctuary this December. Sentient lives are at stake!
We have received quite a few donations in support of this effort, and while we are extremely grateful, the reality is that we barely have attained 10% of our goal. By next week, unless we post a bond for USD$1,411,692.87, the Steve Irwin will be held or possibly sold. I urge you to watch the video and please give the largest gift you can today. Your donation is incredibly important and will make a difference.
Thank-you!
For Our Oceans and for the Steve Irwin,
Captain Paul Watson
Founder and President

I know there are some whack job leftists on the "chair" committee including Martin Sheen. The only celebrity supporter I have any respect for is Richard Dean Anderson because I am a Stargate SG-1 fan, that's pretty much it.
This whole thing is getting ridiculous now. I bet you that fat slob has millions of his own money. Whale Wars obviously makes money otherwise it wouldn't be on the air.

It was hilarious watching that piece of crap fiberglass boat get creamed by the whaler. Priceless. Do it again.

Stupid hippies. Playing chicken with other ships down in the Antarctic circle, +1000nm from civilization.
These greenies want everyone to be forced into their “sustainable” and “smart” marxist utopia.

Kudos to the Admins for keeping the loons off our thread!!! We have had no crazy SS supporters come and defend the hippie scum.
And we ALL need to thank Pan_Yan for these threads and his amazing HTML skills. I am going to go the the Admin_Moderator thread to make an HTML post for the Whale Wars drinking game.
I will try and get a different image off google than what Pan uses.
Pre-Game Tailgate starts at 7PM CST tomorrow (or as soon as Pan posts his thread :)

If the Brits can’t find a buyer, maybe they can sink her to make an artificial reef. That’d help the fishies!
