I don’t understand. Can’t you throw crap at them as they climb on board? It must be a big job to climb abord, and takover.

I feel sorry for the pirates here....they have just set a bad precendent...and someone is going to open a big can of ass whopping on them....just to warn others not to pull this again.

Oil tankers are a big NO-NO.

Boiling water, or better yet boiling oil, even crude oil, would seem likely to work well.

Of course you have to remember that the tanker crew is most likely unarmed, while the "pirates", (Jihadies for Profit), have small arms, and RPGs. Still a couple of .50s or 12.5 or 14 mm's (Soviet heavy machine gun calibers) on the bridge wings, plus a 20mm on a bow platform, would seem to be more than sufficient.

But the world can't have armed civilians running about, don't you know.

As I understand it they have a bunch of RPGs aimed right at you to force you to let them on. On a ship filled with oil you don’t want things blowing up all around you so you give in.
