Can you believe we (the US) has not organized a Navy patrol to wipe out pirate boats on sight? Just a simple announcement of " throw your guns and rocket launchers into the water and turn around or we shoot. " should do it. If they do not comply immediately, then our navy vessel fires and no pirates in a matter of seconds. I realize that someone, mostly the pirates, will feel picked on, but how do you think the innocent sailors or passengers feel when a group of weapon welding teenage Somali pirates board their ship? I don't know many people who would trust a teenager with an AK-47, without a bunch of supervision. It is sad that all 3 pirates shot last night were teenagers. But, still, they had an American hostage and were not giving up. OUCH!
Updates on the daily schedule forthcoming, along with other assorted ramblings.
