Dealing with Pirates 101:
Judi McLeod
April 13, 2009
Now that courageous US Navy Seals have been able to what they have been wanting to do for days, it’s time for Dealing With Pirates 101.
Barack Obama wants help from other countries in making Somali pirates accountable: The US Armed Forces already have the proven ability to deal with them.
Obama and Hillary Clinton should stop calling the pirates “criminals” and tag them for what they are, Terrorists.
Obama should have no difficulty identifying the Somali pirates for what they are:

Maybe a few sailors on the fantail went “Baa-aa-aa-aah!” After all, the pirates had been at least five days without a date.

The Navy yelled to the pirates:
"HEY GUYS, Obama has granted you amnesty and Pelosi is offering you student visas and scholarships to Berkely!" And when the Navy said, " Bwaney Fwank wants your phone numbers" ...............the pirates popped their heads out of the portholes to answer they wanted a foursome......but the pirate elders get to watch.

No mention of Winter and the No $hit Sherlocks at NCIS. Theyre probably all under the covers. Or is it undercover.No, they're hiding in Murtha's Depends. Just more proof that Murtha has sh!t in his pants.

Three snipers slowly squeeze the triggers....crack! Three heads explode. Blurtha must have almost had a cardiac. Will he keep his stupid mouth shut this time around. It is so hard to believe this clown was ever a Marine.

It has dawned on me. This was a bit like a local circus shooting gallery. Three ducks lined up within a few seconds of time. One extended loud crack from most likely three M14's and three heads explode. Easy pickings for men that trained year in and out at popping targets at 500 yards plus and keeping their shots within a one inch group without blinking an eye, regardless of the windage adjustments required etc..
Hell I popped fox and ground hogs between two hundred and out to four hundred yards with my 1970 vintage Remington 700 Custom vermin rifle with a 1" barrel with a fixed 12X scope years back using factory loads as well as my reloads of 80 and 100 grain .243 rounds.
And I could never compare in the least with how good these guys are.
I make my comments with the knowledge even in slightly rolling seas, at that short range the differentials in height between the two vessels could have a considerable variance on any given set of rolling waves etc..
Our guys lined up and did three clean head shots within a few seconds of time. I stand at attention and salute them.
Gotta hit the rack Smooth. Tis been a hard long day. Take care.
