I didn't authorize ATTACKS on the Pirates, I authorized A TAX on the pirates!

Pirates: “Have mercy on us! Attacks are OK, but please, no tax!”

Suspected Somali pirates fired on a U.S. Navy warship off East Africa early Thursday in what appeared to be a ransom-seeking attack on an American guided missile frigate, officials said.

Bold, stupid or crazy?

How can these pirates expect to successfully attack a modern warship?

[oyez]

Rats, another future waste of court time.

Great, catch them in the Indian Ocean, bring them onto a US Navy vessel, mirandize them, fly them to NYC to try them, realize we don’t have anyone to translate into the particular Somali dialect they speak so they can’t get a fair trial, release them onto the streets with completed paperwork for public assistance, medicaid, government housing, etc. That would only make it fair since the Somali’s can’t just cross the border like our Mexican neighbors, so we might as well fly them over here.

For once I want Obama to talk like Putin, “we will blow these pirates to the bottom of the ocean, blow up their mother ships, turn them into shark bait, and allow their boats to become the start of a new coral reef. We will continue to hunt them and shoot them until they stop being pirates or we have killed them all.”

LMAO, what a bunch of maroons...

The pirates had to know this wasn't going to end well.

Wow.

Now that is major league stupid. We're not talking amateurs of stupid here, but full-blown, professional quality, expert level stupidity.

U.S. Navy frigate captures pirate mother ship

[Spok]

“Captures”?

Don’t our ships have a yard arm (for hanging) or a plank (for walking)? Given the red carpet treatment our CIC wants our enemies to receive, our guys need to adopt a ‘no prisoner’ policy.

[Oldpuppymax]

Not to worry. Obama will appoint White House attorneys to represent his Muslim brethren.

[Logical me]

Our commander in chief King Obama, the O wise one, will bring these pirates to the US for a civil trial and free them. Then he will give them citizenship as a compensation for their trouble and permanent unemployment for life. Dumb dodo birds attacked a US Warship? Holy crap, maybe disability would be more in line.

Gun battle? Capture? Obviously, there wasn't one Marine on board that ship.
