So its okay to dump heavy crude oil into the ocean, but its not okay to throw some sponges onto the deck of a ship, that will eventually shrink away once they are removed from the water spray? If the sponged end up in the sea its the whalers fault for not caring enough to clean them up, so they just throw them away.

Unfortunately it isnt illegal to throw junk into the ocean, but I do believe that letting your oil into the water is. Sea Shepherd cant be under the legal gun, but why the whalers havent been charged with anything is beyond me.

Sea Shepherd has never dumped fuel into the ocean! The whalers have! Many people have said it, and you never said anything pertaining to teh Nisshin Maru spilling fuel into the ocean, you just store it away from that.

Yeah, some might have fallen into the ocean, but as far as legality, its not illegal. Yes I do agree, little plastic eggs in the ocean are bad, but the sponges probably arent going to be as big of a problem as the eggs. And we arent talking about neighbors, we are talking about the Steve Irwin and Nisshin Maru. The two subjects are nothing alike. Sea Shepehrd throws them onto the Nisshin Maru, and its up to the whalers to clean it up. Why would you care about some sponges (that could be used as, guess what sponges!) but not some rotten butter or cellulose powder?

Uh, do you have a problem thinking? I was just restating that throwing garbage into the ocean isnt illegal as to avoid that discussion!

The litter could be swallowed, and kill an animal, but chances are low. Very few creatures live there that would end up swallowing plastic eggs.

Fine, if its Sea Shepherds duty than they can just waltz onto the Nisshin Maru and pick it up without being harrassed. Oh wait! The whalers make a big deal if Sea Shepherd gets within 1 mile of their ship, so obviousy that isnt going to happen! Sea Shepherd has been throwing their ROTTEN BUTTER and cellulose powder onto whaler ships for a long time now, and just now its becoming an issue. And if you are pro-whaling why do you care about the sea creatures? Why should you care about them, and not the whales? Doesnt make much sense to me!

Yes, it is about the eggs, but think about the billions of people who everyday throw their trash into the ocean, and get away with it, without having some prick whine about it on the internet. Its just 50 thin plastic eggs, that if the whalers cared for sea life, would be picked up by the whalers. And again, I know some might not have made it (even though they were thrown from very close by probably) its probably nothing compared to what is already floating around there. and if the shells are thin enough to be broken by a growing sponge chances are its thin enough to be cracked and crushed by any animal that may want to eat it.

Why would Sea Shepherd bother buying surplus butyric acid when it occurs naturally, and cheaper, in butter? Just let it rot! They just want to make it any unpleasant work environment, and to taint the whale meat, without harming the whalers. The rotten butter does just just that. Its not pure, concentrated acid.

Really? Well think about it like this for a second, if you have an attention span long enough to read more than a sentence. I have whats called a life. They are really magnificent, you should try getting one. I wake up early, get to where I am needed, I do what I need to do, spend time with friends, get home, finish up my work there, do some stuff on forums, THEN I check on ecorazzi to see what new trash you have thrown up. I dont go on ecorazzi while I’m on the clock. You, on the other hand, have NO life. You post-whore on an environment-based blog, when you obviously dont care for the topic, and call supporters of Sea Shepherd morons when they have too much to do to do anything more than voice their opinions. You are the complete opposite. You sit at your computer, on a boat in the middle of the Great Lakes, looking up needless information on a topic you dont care about, always saying “I’m right, and anybody who goes against what I say is a complete ignorant moron who needs to agree with me.” Guess what dude, NOBODY CARES!!! Gt off your high horse, and GO TO WHERE YOU ARE ACTUALLY APPRECIATED!! Nobody here gives a wink about what happens to you, so stop post-whoring get off this site, and get a life!!

Most other people dont have time, and dont believe the first Google result. You cant change people. You cant change their opinions, you cant change their personalities, and if you knew about the thing called feelings you would know that they dont take kindly to being called slow, stupid, or a retard.

Again, you say something that immediately applies to yourself. I got a bit angry when you called me slow. I am not one of those people with a high self esteem, or ‘inflated ego’ like you may have. I dont care if I “win” the debate over these little plastic eggs, I am just angry that after I said “do you have trouble thinking?” you flew off the handle. I called you that after you asked if I had trouble reading. Obviously you dont like your tactics being used against you. You too are using SSCS tactics by calling others idiots, and expecting that they’ll leave you alone, and add to your inflated ego.

If you truly knew who I was, you would know that whole bit about being around people who think the way I do, is about as truthful as saying the Great Lakes are red, and the sky is made of wood. I am around people who hate me just because I dont believe what they believe, and I have proven them wrong in several occasions. Others dont even have a reason to hate me!

I suffer from low self esteem, and this is not the way I cope with it. I have NEVER had a very high self esteem. Stop saying I’m slow, stupid, or retarded. That is what got me a tad angrry. Since you dont know who I am it is very possible that I am smarter than the people you sit around with on that boat. Now than, since I have a real life, and a time to keep, I will leave it like this:

I will always support the SSCS. I dont care what you do, say, or think. I just want you to stop calling me an idiot. Leave little ‘ol ecorazzi.com alone so you can stroke your massive ego. Obiously you cant see logic through the thick mist of fog you call your ego.

What didnt you say that I claim you did? Look, the only reason I got mad was because I am so tired of your condescending, your “I’m better than you” attitude, your post-whoring, your hipocracy, and you calling everyone stupid because its not possible that you are wrong in any way because you are on a boat in the Great Lakes, and we are on land with actual things to do.

And you know NOTHING about me, so dont tell what I do and dont have.

Answer my question, what did I say you said that you didnt?

I know those ‘here are the facts…..’ people, and most of the time, its completely untrue. One person with that attitude claimed something every self-aware human would know was a lie, but he didnt cave, he walked away stubbournly, as I assume you would if I was talking your face. But over the keyboard we get a bit too confident.

I am judging your attitude from your posts. You cant tell someones self-esteem via post, but you can tell attitude. Now you are going to ignore my question and refere back to where you think I judged your self-esteem, well just shove it! You obviously arent accomplishing anything by doing this, so I suggest you drop it. I am getting a bit tired of arguing with someone in a dead topic.

If anybody opposes what you say, you immediately come back and say that they are wrong. To you everything Sea Shepherd says, is wrong, anything that is right, you either twist the words to make it wrong, you change the subject, or you ignore it.

And I was judging the ego thing by how you normally resond to me. Again, its the way it was perceived/received/context in which it was delivered.

Toxic chemicals?

Are you talking about the dumping of agent orange into foliage/villagers during the Vietnam war?

SS does not use toxic chemicals. Check your facts and think before posting mia2. Pathetic
