    I haven't seen the show yet.

    But I just got back from a close friend of mine in that fishes Lobster for a living up in Maine. And there is a outright WAR going on up there. The offshore guys are basically stopping all boats from pulling traps so they can get the price raised. There is some really nasty crap going on up there to the point where they are threating to burn boats & homes! One guy that went to pull a string got a piece of steel (it was sabotage) that sliced his neck and had to be air lifted back to the mainland.
