    Here's the reality, though: people, in general, are lazy. Only a small minority will dig deeper into a story.

    Just about every article on this situation talks about the act and the consequences. People are told that some activists tried to storm a rig, got arrested for piracy, and are now being refused bail. Only a small blip of these articles (and a lot of times, not even a blip) actually address the actual issues and grievances Greenpeace has.

    This is why I hate their methods.

    I thought Greenpeace dont storm aboard anything , they just get in the way and video record what people are doing?

    My understanding is that they boarded the rig.

    Oh I should read more before throwing in my two bobs worth then.
    Never thought Green peace had the balls for such action .

    Hand em over to NV Semin and his righteous brother hood of Russian politicians and their just Christian legal system then.
