Oh I am sure that wouldn&#039;t be violent either because they didn&#039;t know.The &#039;activists&#039; often can&#039;t see the deck of the ship they are throwing at, as they admit in their own videos. So how do they know they aren&#039;t throwing at somebody? Oh wait, that would be another case of &#039;We didn&#039;t mean to hit anybody&#039;, right?Hey, liar. Where did I claim they set a ship on fire?Although there own videos show them setting netting on fire and admitting they have no control over where the flares go. But we didn&#039;t MEAN to hurt anybody so it doesn&#039;t count.Hey liar. Where did I say that hulls had been pierced in an attempt to sink a ship?Although again we have their own video showing a ship with a hole in the side ofter one of the love taps. But don&#039;t let reality get in the way of a good story. Animux could care less about actual facts when lying is so much easier and more fun.
