Quote:Piracy has its risks. So bomb them, torpedo them, machine-gun them. And if any should be captured, hang them -- right there, right then.
Sunken ships and dead pirates means no more piracy.
'Course, their own people might hang them if they fear Navy will blow them up. Really though, it takes an order from the President to actually attack these guys. Down my grapevine, a lot of fellow current active duty sailor are very very very very very frustrated over tailing and not being allowed to shoot down these pirates, and after seeing very clear evidence against them. We can't shoot them!?? Why not?! Just follow, and follow and follow. Not about ability, even a regular watchstander with a M16 can take these pirates with RPGs down, more about permission than anything else.
I'm ecstatic to hear about the headshots against the pirates. Certain fools need to be taken down before they become more trouble to everyone else.
