“Somali pirate activity is at least partly, a reaction to illegal dumping of toxic waste and illegal fishing on the Somali coast by industrialized nations.”

Oh and what was their excuse in 1792? This is not a new thing....

But, as typical with liberals, we should excuse bad behavior, poor guys, blah blah, blah...I am so sick of this crap. And unfortunately, I take it out on my students lots of times...LOL...If they “forget” their homework and try to blame it on someone else, Lord help them because they get a 3 mile long lecture from me about personal responsibility.

I had an English teacher in High School who had a remedy for not turning in homework assignments.

No homework — no makeup — double 0 for that assignment.

He said that turning in an assignment with a 0 score deserved more credit than not doing the assignment at all.

Worked fairly well as far as I know.

Does anyone else find it ironic that the US Navy vessel on scene is the USS Bainbridge?
