Flares and smoke is a “shot”?
Wouldn’t simply sinking these Iranian vessels put an end to this recurring nonsense?
I hope under Trump no warning shots are fired, just the real thing. What’s that saying....”Due to the high cost of ammo, no warning shots will be fired” ..:)
Trump will blow these bastards out of the water if they make such close approaches to our ships in international waters.
” The IRGC and the Trump transition team were not available for comment”
Somehow I find this to be an odd statement

“Trump vowed that any Iranian vessels that harass the U.S. Navy in the Gulf would be ‘shot out of the water.’”
I do love this guy!!
Maddog Mathis is straining to get out of his leash!!
After Jan 20, simply inform the world that our ships have a 2k personal bubble, no exceptions. Then sink the first vessel to challenge it.
I thought Barky had his head up Iran's butt...what is he doing with ‘warships’ and ‘plastic bullets’ firing on an Iranian ship? They want more money, did they use up all that money that Barky just gave them?
Trump’s “warning shot” will be sinking the first boat.
So why isn’t the media attacking Obama for sending TENS OF BILLIONS to a criminal terrorist regime we are SHOOTING at? RUSSIA is our enemy, and Trump is a traitor for not denouncing Putin...but Iran is our FRIEND?
Don't you remember the State of Georgia and a couple of other States that said they had the ISP address from Homeland Security Department...is that department now housed in Russia? I thought it was in Washington D.C. or did all this come from ‘Black Widow’ which is housed in NSA in Maryland???
You see, Americans know how corrupt and evil you and your people are, we worked it out and now we know what your doing...isn't going to work, hope you have a nice time in the prison cell for your treasonous acts you've done for 8 years...in the 1800’s you would be hung, but of course you wouldn't know that because your not American to begin with...
It’s likely just a decision by a local commander who assumed that Obama wouldn’t even find out about it before January 20, due to the bureaucratic processes at the Pentagon.
USS Mahan, isn’t she the ship that had missiles fired at her off of Yemen?
Who’d have thought? Billions of cash dollars to the criminal Iranian regime is not making them less chippy.
It’s like emptying your pockets to the neighborhood bully. They always want more.
Change isn’t coming! With this incident it shows that it’s (Trump is) already here!-)
Will 0bama fire the captain now for aggressive response?
I thought it was illegal to fire warning shots. You are either in fear for your life and defending yourself or you are not?
