Captain Watson shot

Captain Paul Watson cofounded Greenpeace and founded the Sea Shepard Society once Greenpeace stopped taking direct action to save animals. The Sea Shepard society has been trying to enforce international laws on whaling by interfering with whaling ships that break the laws with impunity. The Japanese whalers have struck back, by having the Japanese coast guard open fire on the Sea Shephard society. Luckily Captain Watson was wearing a kevlar vest when they shot him in the chest.

Yes, that is a grenade the Japanese Coast Guard is throwing. The Japanese government has called Captain Paul Watson “a pirate”.
