Well it looks like Ms: Lawless has Earned her name being placed on the No Enterance and No Flight list watch list,. Under the U.S. Patriot act,. First She and those Green peace Co-hort’s Breeched a what would be considered a Protected Security Area , Yes I ship Yards Port is considered a Protected area just like places at an Air-Port , They Used a Decoy as a diversion to avert entrance detection by they Ports Security / Police , Even if it didn’t happen in the U.S. It still can be considered a Serious High Risk Person Under TSA guide lines and under the Us Patriot Act.

So a BIG Congratulations to Lucy Lawless now your going to have the Test both the Patriot Act and the TSA Bureaucracies for now on.. You should have thought of the Consequences before you Breeched that Ports Protected or Secured Area,.

Regardless of the Criminal Charges Out Come of the more liberal - Lenient NZ Courts. Ms: Lawless is going to be placed on that TSA list

Bold!!!!??? I don't think so. Dress up in your Action Man flouros and mug it for the cameras. More like something out of a market day demonstration without the face painting. Lucy, if you are running out of acting jobs then you could volunteer for some more meaningful program and really make a difference.

Don't get sucked in by the phony goals and methods of the eco-terrorists known as Greenpeace. This protest is misguided. Given Greenpeace won't enter into discussions, it shows their true colours. We can't allow protests like this to succeed.

good on you lucy, if only more people had complete brain formation mayby they'd understand the problems with continued use of fossil fuels. (NOT using a litle bit now to get around and protest). i guess it must suck to be dumb tho. "Gutted!"

They seem to miss the point which is WEAN us off the use of oil. This is being worked on but will take a long time maybe even centurys. Greenpeace like most NOGOs want this to happen immediately which is never going to happen, makes you wonder if the stated aim is the real objective or just an excuse to hide the real objective, like make money.

“I'm a mother and a human being and I feel very strongly that fossil fuels are terrible for our grandchildren. And what kind of mother would I be if I did not fight like a tiger for the well being of my kids?" says Ms Lawless. I really doubt she's had any qualms about being driven around in a limo to all the red carpet events she's had to attend. She isn't a US citizen (although she is married to one). And because this is taking place in New Zealand - assuming she and her group are arrested and convicted - I suspect she will have a hard time gaining entry into the US again given the requirement that all criminal convictions have to be declared before you can travel. I really hope this comes back to bite her.

I suggest the Noble Discover drop ropes and set sail with the protesters onboard and let them fend for themselves.
