Anyone watch Whale Wars?

[Dropshot]

I watched it a few times and found it nearly comical.

"Reality" TV sucks! It's like Survivor or American "Idle" only with boats and people as ugly as I am.

Reality TV is for losers that have run out of anything constructive to do.

The IWC is a paper tiger at best. All it can really do is comment on a nation's issuance of permits, it can't really enforce anything. The research is supposed to be for proper management and "other important" things. Hell, what does Japan care about managing whale pods in the Antarctic. I think they are using the whole research idea as a total cover. They hunt whales for food, plain and simple. You should watch the show about the 23,000 bottlenose dolphins the Japanese kill every year. I don't think that there is any good reason to hunt whales.

I agree accept for native people who use it for there livelyhood like the Inuit eskamo's in the Artic.

Back to the Swamp People show. That one guy sounds just like Bobby Buche off "The Water Boy". Adam Sandler does a good impression.

Caught a couple more episodes on the DVR last night, confirmed my belief they are too stupid to ever do any good.

i've watched and they are the biggest idiots on tv right now. i would like to know how many tax dollars trickle their way to fund the sea shepherds?

To play devils advocate, what they are doing, while they may think it is justified, probably looks borderline terroristic from the Japanese point of view.

I certainly do not think they deserve a Disc channel series ot it, the should just get the Mythbusters to blow more things up.

 

[jasonkruger]

I can only imagine how much money it costs to fund that operation.

 

[SpurHunter]

I wouldnt think it would get too much of our tax money since its run by Canadians. But, IDK.

That just depends on if we are as in debt to them as we are to other countries. emoBang
