Nothing but respect for our fishermen, who work in one of the most dangerous occupations there is, several times more dangerous than being a cop.

    IIRC isn't it like the single most dangerous job in the US? But also at the same time commercial fishing is really destructive and bad for the environment in its current incarnation, so critical support I guess.

      According to this it is second only to logging. And it definitely depends on the fishery. Some are quite destructive, but others are relatively sustainable

        Yeah I was just thinking of the industry as a whole. Side note, ban cruise ships.
