Anti-whalers use Lasers

Associated Press: Anti-Whaling Activists Target Japanese Whaler In Antarctic - Green - Air America

Interesting use of lasers, using them to flash blind the crew members of a whaling ship. International waters too, so it isn't illegal. I'm just hoping the laser is defocused enough not to cause any serious damage, otherwise lasers could take some rap...

I cant beleive they got the Earthrace boat, that thing is tits. I wonder how the captain feels being in control of that beast compared to the old clunker they had. But now they cant ram the whaling boats. Oh well, they can certainly outrun them.

I just read the whole thing you linked to and can't find where it says
using a Laser to flash blind the crew was legal.....:thinking:

Did i miss something...:thinking:

What I meant was possession of lasers is okay, lol. Not that blinding is okay

LOL

Anyone see the South Park episode on this subject? Epic. "Good job son, now they are normal like us."

drivinfast, also can't believe they landed that boat! Very very nice.

Honestly, I just watched the show for the first time recently and one of the question that popped into my mind was, when are they going to start blasting photons..:thinking:

Uhm, I don't support whales hunting, but i may be preoccupied about another thing, in this case .....

How can i say it .....

"No, mr Judge, i have not shooted intentionally that explosive harpoon in the boat of the activists ..... i was aiming at the whale, when a bright flash from somewhere blinded me in the exact moment that i was firing, so i don't know where the shoot is gone ....."

Just one example ..... :eg:
