Oh, what the hell, here I go.
I'd hate like hell for one of my kids to get involved in Greenpeace, because I'm still hoping to have grandchildren one day, but I'd be proud of them if they did.
In case you haven't looked up and around, big-ass corporations are changing the way the world has worked for millennia, and the whole balance of how the world works is getting out of whack. And in a growing number of areas, life has changed for the worse.
If some crazy-ass, under-employed, buried-under-student-loans twenty-year-olds have the guts to get into a Zodiac and try to interfere with a local representative of some massive multinational fishing conglomerate, then I say more power to them.
The whole multinational thing might not have hit you yet, but just wait: it's only a matter of time.
And yes, the kids in Greenpeace and everything else are awfully easy to laugh at, because most people in their 20's are awfully easy to laugh at. (My apologies to all the VN members here that fit that demo, which appears to be the majority.) :hi: People who are revved up about a cause are easily mocked. (Like Grudenites. )
Goat, I figured out what your show reminds me of.
Remember Mystery Science Theater?

Paul Watson would be on my short list of people I would like to have a beer with. Probably losing alot of respect on here but oh wellI applaud their taking a stand. But dude the dumbassery is funny. Paul Walker is a self serving SOB that even a lot, probably even the majority of eco-warriors can't stand.
I hate the smell, but it is hilarious to watch her fart. It startles her, so she turns around and stands all puffed up like she is ready to defend her turf against the evil fart monster, but she is confused when there is nothing behind her.

IMO, it's a sad reflection of the way things are that people who want to take a stand don't really have a lot of good patterns to follow.I applaud their taking a stand. But dude the dumbassery is funny...
No loss of respect for you, but get on you tube and watch alot of the videos from eco conferences where he is caught in lies about his involvement in the wounded knee incident. The Indians hate that SOB. It might change your mind about his motivations.
