Good news. More of this and we’ll see the piracy stopping.

Klaus should have sunk or at least strafed the bastards.

We need to take a politically correct stance.
Sinking the pirate ship will help to feed the whales.

The very simple question remains: why aren't pirates simply blown out of the water?

Political correctness has evolved to the point that 10 evil humans are the exact equivalent of 10 normal ones.

What's wrong with this picture?

I suspect that after a few dozen or so pirate boats fail to return from out at sea, the incidence of piracy in the area will plummet.

Reminds me a documentary about wild elephants. They routinely ravaged the fields of the farmers in this small province in India because they had learned the humans don’t shoot at you.

German military helicopter chased away pirates

Don't chase then across the water, make them go straight down into the water. After spending a short time flying up into the air, that is.

Spurred by widespread poverty in their homeland, Somali pirates have made an estimated $30 million hijacking ships for ransom this year.

Someone say PC?

YO HO (A PIRATE’S LIFE FOR ME)
Lyrics by Xavier Atencio and music by George Bruns

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We pillage, we plunder, we rifle, and loot,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We kidnap and ravage and don’t give a hoot,
Drink up me ‘earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We extort, we pilfer, we filch, and sack,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Maraud and embezzle, and even high-jack,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We kindle and char, inflame and ignite,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We burn up the city, we’re really a fright,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.

We’re rascals, scoundrels, villans, and knaves,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
We’re devils and black sheep, really bad eggs,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.

Yo ho, yo ho, a pirate’s life for me.
We’re beggars and blighters, ne’er-do-well cads,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
Aye, but we’re loved by our mommies and dads,
Drink up, me ‘earties, yo ho.
