Does Greenpeace attack Inuits who go whale hunting?
Just curious.

Greenpeace, AFAIK, harasses the big factory whaling operations that
massacre hundreds at a time. While I am certain that many of them
sympathize directly with the whales (I know I do), their fundamental
goal is species and oceanic preservation. The same is essentially true
of Sea Shepherd, although I think their people may even more strongly
identify with the plight of the whale being hunted.

I don't think they bother the Inuits or others who hunt on a
subsistence basis, although if the target species is truly endangered
they work to find other options.

Bruce,

All the above that you state is right on the money. No one should ever
begrudge an indigenous people their chance to eke out a living on extremely
limited resources (such as with the Inuit). It's the commercial whalers or
thugs that slaughter rhinos and elephants for horns and tusks that p*sses
me off to no end. Humanity has killed off enough species on this planet and
sooner or later such extinctions will come back to haunt us.

Oh my god! A ****ed off Canuck. That must be really something to see.

What do you do? Wave a hanky? Stamp your foot? Pout? Refuse to eat your
vegetables?

LMFAO
