I'm not making this up:

Defence expert: I have sympathy with pirates

"The 44-year-old, who works in Bromley and south-east London, said: "Desperate people take chances. I do sympathise with people who are that desperate, I mean you've got to show some humanity towards them as well. I think that's pretty important."

“They can’t help it.”

Hundreds of years of piracy.

Yep.

Foolish antiAmerican idiots.
