Our government should worry more about Australians who don't endanger lives.

Plus the sook had to get his mum to go to bat for him.

Japanese Open Fire on Sea Shepherd Crew: Three Injured

And go fuck yourself barman, you said they endanger their lives but at the same time you said he is a sook? He didn't ''get his mum to go to bat for him''... his mum is the founder of Animal Liberation Victoria and he is fighting for animal right...


moo-core  said about 3 years ago:

Yay Sea Shepherd.


Barman  said about 3 years ago:

Did yr mum post that for you tugboat?

I couldn't give a shit if his mum was a founding member of an order of nuns. These guys are on a par with street protesters throwing ball bearings under horses or mailing fake bombs to government departments.


aaaron  said about 3 years ago:

No they aren't. Don't be ridiculous Barman.


thomasr  said about 3 years ago:

whales are cows of the sea. I eat cows.


Barman  said about 3 years ago:

They make a habit of boarding a vessel at sea. They interdict the path of a larger vessel. That endangers themselves and anyone called upon to help them. T

I don't for a minute support the whalers but one illegal act doesn't mitigate another. These people are clowns.

Extremists almost always suck, no matter what team they're playing for.


VoxFuzz  said about 3 years ago:

Too rational, didn't read it.


tugboat  said about 3 years ago:

am not wasting my time to educate barman what he/she should know.


Barman  said about 3 years ago:

The case rests. You are an idiot.


fastcanoe  said about 3 years ago:

Ok fucktard..

Your government doesn't give a cuntscribbled shit about you, your immediate friends or anyone you will encounter, as to put it simply you'll never be an economic indicator.

Plus the sook had to get his mum to go to bat for him.

Your pissdrenched mother batted for you from day dot in the purely genetic sense of gene survival. Any pumped up uterus with a rational exposure to surroundings would chose a 10 week expulsion and drain blockage. Yours, like the rest of ours, was just a receptical and two way dumpster for entrenched family dreams. She took the bat and offered up her own crease for anyone with a stump.

These guys are on a par with street protesters throwing ball bearings under horses

This I find to be a rather humours little attempt at safe humanist values via the medium of the poor other creature. Throwing a ball bearing under a hoof endangers the horse first and foremost. Encroaching on a vessel by most means will generally endanger the crew if not captained/trained. See the difference yet?

Here be a little idealism test for you. Say you had some precious little product of you fucking ability standing outside a fistfester delight kindergarten in a group of little other tight holed friends. And your letting them be to mingle, as we know this will make for a great communicator later on, whilst you wait in your car. A neurotic mid forties post divorcee decides that her cuntdribbling ex's new children in law need to included in a hall of mince fame. She takes her 4wd and heads straight towards your little mindless minglefucks glory chasm of shitstains with the only intent of making the next pikelet album samples. You have a bull bar, least 94 horse power and are on the tangent of intersection. Would you sit there and take photos like me?


Barman  said about 3 years ago:

Must try harder. 2/10.

Did your mum write this or was she too busy fucking a football team?

If so it was obviously an AFL football team cos they have more players and you're pissed off that you had to wait longer for your turn.


tvforcats  said about 3 years ago:

dont mess with the canoe.......


fastcanoe  said about 3 years ago:

Actually my mother has been known to suck off the odd sperm whale for a few beads and rocks. I may have to wait my turn these days, but thankfully due to quick thinking 30 years prior my fingerprints are firmly engraved on her twitch switch. Vulval vestibule variety I seek not.

But even between gulping down the gallons of wizz fizz she can understand the inherent failures in your attempt to side line sentience. You can't even use having Qld connections for an excuse in stupidity here Barman, for I am another.


kandos  said about 3 years ago:

considering the location of the action taken by either group (sea shepherd or japanese whaling fleet), the australian government is out of its bailiwick. the australian government is to be held accountable in a strictly limited sense, the sea shepherd vessel having most recently left an australian port. even the japanese government and the commercial whalers realise that there is, in practice, no reasonable action the australian government could take in preventing the vessel leaving an australian port, as no australian nor maritime law is being broken by simply leaving port.

the sea shepherd guys have, indeed, now contravened maritime law and, in effect, their actions constitute a formal act of aggression. the japanese government has every right to insist that the australian government prosecute this transgression.

predictably, the rudd government will kowtow to pressure from the japanese government, as turning a blind eye to the actions of the sea shepherd group is tantamount to complicity in an illegal action. that's the bottom line folks; whaling in international waters is not illegal, providing regulations as to the number caught are adhered to. the japanese whalers may, indeed, catch more than their alloted number of whales, but this is difficult to prove - vastly more difficult than proving the actions of the sea shepherd to not contravene maritime law.

until the practice of whaling has been made illegal in international waters, there is nothing the australian government can do and, as fastcanoe rightly pointed out, the australian government have vastly bigger fish to fry.

whales are mammals, kandos. You should know that!

(ps - answer my pm)


kandos  said about 3 years ago:

i answered your pm, mate.


Barman  said about 3 years ago:

That wouldn't be a conclusion you've jumped to there. I have zero QLD connections.

You don't say. tugboat was the misguided soul advocating the government watching our back. I'm more likely to send a get well soon card to Idi Amin than waste my time petitioning the Foreign Minister.

The Sea Slug and her crew are more an annoyance to government than anything else. And it's skipper is still a fucking sook - as anyone who heard his interview with the PM program on Friday will attest. He didn't like them questioning his cred so the line ''dropped out''.

Really? Explain questionmark and Judy Jetson then.

Safe sailing Sea Shepherds as you depart today xo


moo-core  said about 1 year ago:

They've got a cool new (and apparently faster) boat.


Lilo  said about 1 year ago:

They spent around a thousand bucks on foods in my shop last week. Safe sailing!


Sunnyboyz  said about 1 year ago:

Enjoy international lawless waters. :)


Hellzapoppin  said about 1 year ago:

My company donated a few thousand dollars worth of food to them last week whilst a few of them were in town. There will be some vegan fun on the high seas.


Lilo  said about 1 year ago:

They bought a fuckload of Braggs (liquid gold on board ship, apparently), nutritional yeast flakes and tahini. At least they'll be eating well.


Hellzapoppin  said about 1 year ago:

What is this Braggs you speak of?

k2  said about 1 year ago:

secretly hopes this boat sinks too, for the lulz


noneabove  said about 1 year ago:

Braggs is tops!

I was actually given one of the original Braggs health and wellbeing books as a gag gift years ago. The portraits of Mr Bragg were fucking scary.


k2  said about 1 year ago:

also the sea shepherd main guy is the second greatest attention whore in the world. Second only to miserable. And maybe the new north korean man-child son of kim jong (licence to) ill.
