Arghhhhhh
Alright, here we go.
So i figured i would start out with a real blog post....
For those of you who dont stay in touch with pirate culture i suppose i will have to let you know the most recent turn of events.
Heres the scoops. Pirates are cool.... pirates who just take people as ransom suck..... pirates that kill Americans should be excommunicated from the pirate community and shot on site
In this recent "Pirate" attack.... (i use quotations because of my recently stated views of pirating) FOUR Americans were killed. 4!? What the hell?
Why have hostages become the primary source of income for pirates? What happened to just regular ol looting and plundering?
"Pirates - who currently hold 30 ships and more than 660 hostages - typically win a multimillion ransom for releasing their captives, a huge sum that is shared among investors and pirates. The money is often spent on alcohol, drugs and prostitutes. One ransom paid last year was reported as $9.5 million. Most ransoms are worth several million dollars."
Its a Pirates life for me.... not a criminal whos gonna get two bullets to the brain for holding people ransom life for me...
In closing, America needs to stop responding with the Navy, and come up with our own pirate fleet. Nothing says America like competition.... and blowing shit up.
So lets do this!
