Mexican Somalians ? The scourge of the low seas I guess.
Kill thsee pirates with extreme prejudice, don’t leave even scraps large enough for the buzzards.
The only way to respond is with disproportionate violence, nip it in the bud.
Looks like our Mexican amigos are offshoring their violent culture.
Undocumented pirates. Schumer and Pelosi call for them to receive stimulus loot.
Moslems, by any chance? I know there is a population of them south of the border.
Teenager I knew (when I was a teen) left a small port in NW Fla in 1970 with his dad to sail across the Gulf down to S. Fla. They had met a couple of women in the town before they left, and his dad let the women come with them.
The boat disappeared in the Gulf of Mexico, no trace ever found of the boat or the occupants. There were no storms in the Gulf and no distress calls. Law enforcement was pretty sure the women were working with drug smugglers, and that he and his dad were killed out in the Gulf and their boat stolen. I always thought it was irresponsible of his dad to let strangers on board the boat. Then again, in 1970 you didn’t think about drug smugglers too much. That changed in the next few years and it became apparent there was a lot of smuggling activity taking place.
Trump must Respond.

Arrrgh, Mateys. The Pirates of the Carribbean be back to loot ships in harm’s way.
In my fantasies, I dream of an attempted piracy and the ship comes into harbor with the pirates swinging from the cargo hoists.
There’d be a bloody ruckus from the pearl-clutchers but it would send a message, as well as providing the warm and fuzzies to people who think like me.
Declare them hostis humani generis and act accordingly.
There were an average of 16 pirate attacks each month off Mexico last year. Pirates attack offshore oil rigs, the ships that supply them, and cruise ships, as well as other vessels. No arrests were made.
