I think that this is going too far.

I was a member of GreenPeace a few years ago.  I was not a member who went out
and physically intervened myself, I was only a support canvasser.

I believe that intervention as a method of stopping whaling is OK, but an 
attempt to destroy property or harm/kill people is going much too far.

Environmental terrorism is not the answer.
