What do you think of Greenpeace?

[BSM1]

The right hates people who try to do the right thing and use "do-gooders" as an attempt to smear them. I guess the right is in favor of "do evil" rather than "do good"

Uh-huh...

 

[ChristineM]

I could ask you the same thing..

You could but you made the statement in question.

So do i assume you cannot justify your claim?

 

[ChristineM]

This is RF. We simply don't do that.

I only asked, i don't actually expect any evidence...

Another Commie organization...

Odd, I thought they were ecological radicals, not economic radicals.

 

[Father Heathen]

Self serving bunch of misguided do-gooders...

Says the staunch supporter of the evangelical agenda.

 

[Father Heathen]

I'm all for environmentalism and animal welfare, but groups like Green Peace or Peta that resort to radicalism do far more harm than good.

Shows how little you know about me...

Shows how little you know about me...

You don't have to be an evangelist to support their agenda. All you have to do is back their enablers.

A very simple question to ask, What do you think of Greenpeace? Do you know what they actually do for the nature?

I have mixed feelings about them. I met one of the founding members back in the early 90's. He was a direct action radical, too militant even for Greenpeace and was removed from the organization. A very compelling speaker, but that type of person often is.

They have been successful in achieving the protection of some marine species from exploitation, but they favor their own political agendas over science when it suits them.

 

[Dan From Smithville]

I've had really bad experience of these people. They seem to be cynical exploiters of public opinion, addicted to public grandstanding and indifferent to the science if it does not suit their agenda.

My experience relates to this: Brent Spar - Wikipedia

They approach GMO's with indifference to science as well, in my experience.

Yea. Real do gooders ...

Greenpeace breaks the law, again

That's interesting. I had the strong feeling, at the time, that the cynicism they displayed over Brent Spar was unlikely to be a one-off.

They're just the sea version of ELF.
