I know nothing about the protocol for this but: Can't they just send a US submarine to go there, surface just under the pirate boat...turning it over and dumping everyone out. Have some Navy Seal divers nearby to pick up the captain and let the pirates just float into oblivion. No gunshots, no weapons...just a good dunking into the deep to sink or be food for the sharks (Or even pick them up for prosecution). Do the same for the other pirate ships anytime they attack a vessel bearing a U.S. flag.

That’s what I say—my grandson’s crew is ready and able, aboard the US nuclear sub Jimmy Carter. They have a whole pod full of Seals ready to go.

Awaiting orders from the Coward-in-Chief?
