Reminder: Japan's fishing habits consist of violations of various warnings from the UN, trespassing into other nation's waters, and still continue to hunt whales in an unsustainable amount.
From Wikipedia, "The Japanese government, whose whaling industry is a leading target of the organization's efforts, have called Sea Shepherd eco-terrorists for "impeding their research".[5] However, in March 2014 the International Court of Justice ruled the Japanese whaling program in the Southern Ocean was not, as claimed, for scientific purposes, and ordered Japan to cease operations.[6]"
Fucking author has a chip on his shoulder.
Admittedly, the Sea Sheperd's actions sometimes break a few laws.
