Fly over the boat and gas them with a non-lethal nerve gas to stun them. Collect the bodies and arrest them. No more talking, just action. Any pirates that attempt to help, blast them out of the water.

The US military only has CS gas, also known as riot or tear gas. There's still stockpiles of CN gas - a harsher form of CS gas, it's not distributed or used anymore. In fact, I can't remember CN gas being deployed the last 45 years. Because we're signatories of the Chemical Weapons Convention, we don't carry nor use any nerve agent, lethal or otherwise
