Per Fox and Friends, the captain tried to escape this morning, swam away from the vessel, but the pirates were able to recapture him.

I am no expert on these matters, but why the hell weren’t any Navy divers in the water, ready to capture him in the event that something like that was to occur? Fox reported that the Navy was too far away to be of help!

Are they serious? That poor captain probably thought all he needed to do would be to escape from the vessel, and he’d reach freedom. Instead, he’s probably tied up or secured even more by these thugs.

Again, I’m no expert, but it seems unconscionable that HE did his best to escape, but no help was available to lead him to safety once he left the vessel.

Convergence of pirates is like having fly paper around to catch them! Time to shoot them all!

Want to bet some captain had to go up the chain of command to get permission to bomb the boat to bits.
