Danger is relative, obviously.
Well, whatever the relative dangers were, this Navy vet is just ecstatic that American forces whipped the pirates and freed our man.
The only thing that would beat this is the freeing the 200 plus hostages they hold ashore in Somalia. If the zerobama doesn't do that - he is an incompetent ass. But - that's already more than proven. (If he would just get out of the way, and let our military loose - there.)
