It sounds like if we eliminated or deterred the Orcas who are exhibiting this behavior it would stop others from learning it. No?
Orcas are endangered, so no, you can’t go around trying to shock them or blow them up.
Never stated I wanted to blow them up. If they attack my rudder I want to ensure the safety of my crew and scare them away from the boat.
And if either of your ideas were actual viable someone would have tried it always. But your plans risk injuring the orcas, which you can’t do because they’re endangered.
If they attack my vessel I have every right to respond and defend my vessel. It’s even easier if I’m in international waters.
No, you don’t actually, tough guy.
If you ever get a boat, I hope the orcas eat it.
They wouldn’t, I’d zap them or throw half sticks of dynamite overboard to scare them away.
Hmmm harpoons are effective against whales… maybe if I added a cattle prod tip it would make it a great “non-lethal” deterrent…
Ahh, you’re just a troll. Ok. I see.
You go have yourself, idk, some kinda day.
You don’t seem to safety seriously when on the high seas. I hope you stay on land.
Wow, you're so cool and manly!
Tell us more!
You're an idiot. When has that ever worked?
Your a moron, no one has been documented trying. Go flap that uneducated cock holster somewhere else.
Yeah, they have. Just because you have the bare minimum brain cells to stay alive and don't know shit about the subject doesn't mean it hasn't been done before.
Your word is worth less to me than bullshit. Bullshit is at least useful for fertilizer.
It's cute that you think I care. Well, I do, cos shit like this is why the world is falling apart. But your personal attacks hold no weight against me. I ain't a pretty person, I've been insulted all my life, this is nothing compared to what I've heard. But then, that's probably on me for expecting better from you. Especially since I have plenty of evidence that your intelligence is questionable...
LMAO, the first three words of your first comment to me was an insult. Now you complain about my personal attacks and try to take the high road.
Do you always pick fights and then act like a bitch when you get hurt?
I didn't complain, merely stated they don't bother me. But you have a room temperature IQ, so expecting you to pick up on nuance isn't gonna happen. my apologies for not talking in single word sentences so you'd understand.
Room temperature IQ? I’ve been called far worse by better people. Go flap your cock holster somewhere else you little bitch.
That's the second time you've used that jab, already run out of ideas? I'm surprised you lasted this long. Any sexual partners you may have had (although, let's be honest, with your smarts that number is likely zero) probably thinks the same.
