Thread Name: BS: Update on Somali Pirates
Subject: RE: BS: Update on Somali Pirates
I think y`ad have to be an idiot to take a civilian pleasure yacht or other type of boat into `their` waters. I have little sympathy for people who can be that stupid. That said, I don`t understand why big shippers are willing to negotiate million dollar buyouts for the crooks and not hire mercs to take care of business.

The highlight was the seal team who shot the bastards. Calling this scum pirates almost legitimizes them. And even the older days-of-sail pirates were nothing to look up to. Search and destroy has always had a place in warfare, and if this ain`t warfare, then what is!
