Bullet Proof Vest Saves Anti-Whaling Activist from Japanese Whaler’s Bullet

It’s on! Japanese whalers have fired a shot in their ongoing battle with anti-whaling protesters, literally. Protesters Captain Paul Watson, of the very proactively active group Seas Shepherd, allegedly got hit in his bullet proof vest after being shot at by Japanese whalers on the high seas of Antarctic whaling grounds. Sea Shepherd doesn’t pussy foot around- their plan is to use any means possible to disrupt the Japanese whale hunt. If the world isn’t going to outright ban whaling, we should at least open up the rules to allow anyone to shoot back at the whalers. Then film the battles and package as a TV show and coffee table book. I’d pay to see that. Link [The Earth Times]
