Illegal fish cartels?

The video shows a convenient short segment, what it doesnt show is them harrassing them while they are trying to catch fish, or the support group above them harassing the boat.

The lady & snorkel bob are quacks who thinks they have the right to force their beliefs on others.

 

Just went to snorkel bobs web site to get an idea of what their foundation is about. I'm pretty confident they are not on our "like" list... Sounds radical and quite clear they are anti aquarium. Seems to rattle off statistics but does not really bring a point to their bantering. Example: they state "The aquarium trade fills 80% of all tanks in the U.S. with Hawaii reef fish, 99% of which die in a year." They don't state the impacts of populations in the ocean. In my opinion fish spawn such large amounts that by thinning the population it would increase survival rates of the remaining spawn. Simply my theory. Also the 99% death rate seems like its skewed. I would assume these are feeder fish which are meant to be killed however they use those numbers to make it sound like 99 in 100 tangs die after harvesting.

 

They guy is a little on the rough side... The reality is that the commercial fishing endeavors (where this dude should be focusing) is completely wrecking our aquatic environment... When compared to... Say harvesting fish for an aquarium (which the wider spread at this point are aqua-cultured) are so minute compared to other environmental impacts. I smell "Look at me look at me!!"
