Is there not regulations still on the naval books that Pirates are to be shot on site?

Ever wonder what the Russian version of the PHALANX CIWS would do to a skiff crowded with Somali pirates?

After some vodka, these sailors found out....loudly:

Notice the Muslim sucking media never refers to them as “Christians”, only that they “distributed Bibles”.

They were exterminated by Muslims because they were Christians. Period.

I feel sorry for them. No one should have to die like that, being executed by savages. But, being rich and stupid is not the free pass in the rest of the world that it is in the US.

“Slain yachters called ‘brave adventurers’”

I’m sure their deaths pleases the Kenyan Mau-Mau traitor infesting the Whitehouse.

As for you secret service scum protecting this piece of commie garbage, the law of Karma is eternal.

I feel for the senseless killings of these fine people... supposedly they were on a religious mission...

However - Anyone who sails within a 1000 miles of Somalia is foolhardy ... Just don’t do that kind of thing...

I wouldn’t drive at night on the bad sides of Dallas, Texas USA... I would be risking my life as in any big metropolitan area ... It would be just damned crazy to push the odds like that...

And - there is NO PLACE in America as violent as sailing off the coast of Somalia -— GOOD GRIEF how could someone be that vacant of mind... Somali pirates are Islamic nuts after all... not only that they are bloodthirsty money hungry pirates ...

Instead of sailing off the Somalia Coast one should just save time and play Russian Roulette - with all six chambers loaded in a revolver.

Get a GRIP RICH PEOPLE - sail somewhere else for Heavens Sake... Save people for Christ somewhere else...

Good God Almighty the dumbness of some...

I am surprised only in that I figured the Pirates would have at least tried to get a $Mill or $Two ransom out of them before creating shark bait out of them. Now all the Pirates got is this crappy boat and a couple of bible-thumping t-shirts. I think I heard elsewhere that the US Military was trying to make some rescue attempt when things went so horribly bad for these folks. I am guessing we’ll hear all about it soon. (NOT) I admire their ‘quest’ for adventure. They certainly got a boat load of that. But for them to either not understand or to ignore the extreme dangers that existed in the path of their course and to not chart another after the many past illustrations of what happens off the coast of Somalia is just not smart IMHO. What’s wrong with sailing around either coast of the USA as an adventure? This is an extremely dangerous world. If the only way to get your adventure pleasures is to stick your neck into a Pirate’s den, I can’t really muster up a whole lot of sympathy. I will pray for their families though.

Sad story, made even sadder that the 15 pirates weren’t shark food.

Too bad they weren’t union members calling in sick. Then the president might have done something for them.

So I guess what I am getting from this is that Somali “pirates” can kill American citizens with impunity as long as a muslim is in the WH and Boehner is SOTH.

I would never be sailing on the open ocean without a .50 cal gun mounted to my boat an my collision radar set for 16 miles. Anyone getting too close would get a shot across the bow.

Seems useful idiots are getting a crash course in “guess what? The world really is a savage place”. Will it resonate? My money says no, they will still excuse the savages and twist their brains into pretzels finding ways to blame the USA.

Not by me.
I call them brain-dead self defined loser victims.

Sailing anywhere near the coast of Somalia is right up there with a "hiking vacation" near the Iran border.

What would Jefferson and Reagan do?

Isn't it about time that we break out the daisy cutters and bomb Somali pirate ports to smithereens?

How many times does it have to be posted here or on other threads that these two couples were NOT missionaries, nor were they connected to any official ministry.

They were retired couples who decided to fulfill a dream and sail the globe. They were churchly folks of sufficient incomes, lovers of sailing, belonged to a local yaching club, one was an expert skipper, and all evidently were adventurous.

Carrying the Bibles aboard their vessel for distrbution during their travels was a commendable and very nice touch. However, this doesn't make them missionaries or religious "martyrs" any more than distributing pocket Constitutions at their tourist stops would make them official emissaries of our State Department.
