Greenpeace get a taste of their own medicine

Taken from the Cfact Facebook page although there is nothing on their official site just yet. It made me laugh anyway.

I still prefer the French method of dealing with them

Apparently it was last year.

Blimey in that case they are worse than me for updating their facebook profile. It came up in my feed as being posted 2 hours ago. Still, worth it for a laugh.

As much as I disagree with their general attitude you do realise the French murdered someone in that particular incident?

Greenpeace annoy and disrupt the whaling ships - which gets the thumbs up from me!

So.... who are they? Their website makes them sound like another bunch of greenies.

This all sounds a bit People's Front of Judea.

Much as I hate tree huggers, this boat has done a lot to stop whaling which is a cause worth fighting.

I believe they are but they haven't fallen for the carbon nonsense and indeed campaign against it which makes them OK in my book.

Why? Wales are just floating cows.

I could understand being irritated with them going after endangered species, but the reality is they essentially don't - it's common as much crap like minke and pilot whales.

fk the whales.

Each to their own, but first you've got to catch one, unless you get friendly with an Icelander and don't mind the necro scene.

[Tsippy]

Cfact speak a lot of sense to be fair to them

[grumbledoak]

Indeed. Greenpeace lost the plot so long ago their own co-founder left in disgust. You can find his open letter about it on t'internet.

It was manslaughter but don't let the facts get in the way of your point. The Greenpeace ship illegally made an incursion into a French military zone. I am often confused by the attitude of these idiots. The French are governed by a reprasentative democracy and yet because some hippies with a ship disagree with the government of 2 countries they should be allowed free reign to put across their viepoint by whatever means they wish?

The right to protest is one thing, pissing about during a nuclear test is another. The French murdered nobody, one photographer was to thick to realise a ship that had just been blown up by a mine was a stupid place to hang out and decided to go and have a rake about below decks. Unfortunately he copped it when mine number 2 went off and the ship sank, but lets face it, if they hadnt been sticking their noses where they werent needed none of it need have happened.

Greenpeace are a bunch of morons with theor own agenda with little respect for the laws of the land or sea, I couldnt give a crap when it comes back and bites them on their hemp covered asses.
