I find this fact quite fascinating. The pipeline certainly was controversial however if it wasnt for illegal activity, it probably wouldnt have gotten nearly as much exposure. Yes, most agree with the protesters. I also imagine that most people dont want to have their meats pumped up with hormones. Does that give the citizens grounds to break into farms and destroy/steal property? To protest offshore exploitation, is tresspassing onto private cargoboats reasonable?

Id like to know if theres a form of successful activism that doesnt have to devolve into criminal activity, even if minor. From what I gather, usually companies/parties complicit in the problem activities can simply ignore protests.
