Start a list. Let the sponsors know they are supporting terrorism.

You keep saying "our whales". Who are you refering to? The Japanese are not poachers. What they are doing is legal. Norway and Iceland also hunt whales as do certain indigenous peoples. Incidentaly, Alaskan natives hunt whales too.

Alaskan Natives kill a couple Whales a year compared to the hundreds by the Japanese in the name of science every single year extremely lowering their population..... are you seriously that dense?

So what you are saying is that in the name of science one call make a species of animals extinct?

To answer your question: No I am not dense. Are you? Please read my post under NATIVE WHALE HUNTING in the ISSUES section. In fact, the natives in Alaska kill an average of 50 whales a year. Which is a much higher percentage of the whale population than the Japanese kill.

I am so appreciative of your supplying a list of sponsors I can now patronize! I usually don't buy from big box stores, but since they are helping to sponsor more publicity for Sea Shepherd, they can now count me as a customer. As for your lame arguments regarding the number of whales that are killed "legally" under the guise of Japanese research, do YOUR research first. Your numbers are wrong.

Your numbers are right. They just dont like logical arguments. To them, they think the minke whales are the big beautiful whales they see in documentaries and stuff. They dont realize they are large in numbers, and the numbers the Japanese hunt actually HELP their populations. (over population kills more species than hunting)

No, I am not saying that at all. What I AM saying and the whalers are saying is that a limited number of whales can be safely hunted without endangering their survival.

I appreciate that. That seems to be the case. I think whales are rather ugly. That is my own personal opinion, of course. Just because I THINK they are ugly does not mean that they ARE ugly. Radical concept, huh? Indeed, over population can be devestating.
