What the makers of the movie don’t want you to see.
Since we launched Awesome Ocean, we have had a number of occasions to write about the mockumentary called Blackfish. We have also been fortunate enough to have others weigh in on the film here as well, including guest editorials from Bridgette Pirtle and Mark Simmons. If you’re not immediately familiar with those names – they were both a part of the making of the film but have since come forward to tell the truth about the agendas and lies behind it.
The short version is that Blackfish as a “documentary” is a lie pushed upon the unsuspecting public by the most extreme animal right activists like PETA and the Humane Society of the United States. It’s goal is to prey upon your emotions and to use them to turn you into a pawn for their ends.
We’d like for you to see the other side. So, take a few minutes and check out a few of the articles we’ve published about the topic. Most of us want to have the facts before making a decision.
