This won't help our hobby . . .

The authorities are aware of the diver involved and watching what happens to him legally will probably give any that are paying attention a good idea of how involved the Sea Shepard people were in instigating and accelerating the situation.

According to witness accounts there were 6-8 Sea Shepard people harassing, and perhaps vandalizing the collector's boat and other equipment, yet conveniently enough Sea Shepard only leaked footage of one of their own being attacked. Which this footage also coincides with an initiative Sea Shepard just announced.

Anyone that follows the activity and often aggressive actions of Sea Shepard is not surprised that if they were the aggressor in this situation.

Very well said. Why did they release such a short segment of video? Maybe they don't want anyone to know the whole story. It would be premature to make a value judgement on the situation without more information.
 
The next comment about using spearguns, knives, etc will get this thread closed. Political commentary will close it just as quickly. It is never wise to make rash comments about a situation where definite agendas are involved.
