I think you mean, they have been peaceful,
"At least 160 orcas have died in captivity, including at least 44 at SeaWorld."
"Competition with fishermen also led to orcas being regarded as pests. In the waters of the Pacific Northwest and Iceland, the shooting of orcas was accepted and even encouraged by governments. As an indication of the intensity of shooting that occurred until fairly recently, about 25% of the orcas captured in Puget Sound for aquariums through 1970 bore bullet scars. The U.S. Navy claimed to have deliberately killed hundreds of orcas in Icelandic waters in 1956 with machine guns, rockets, and depth charges."
Perhaps they're just getting their own back?
Yet again you seem to be ignoring the fact that yachts have never been the agressor, have paid no part in capturing orcas or shooting them.
They are picking on the wrong people, so maybe they are not as smart as we have been told. They now need to be strongly discouraged.
