I'll bet the pirates don't have any HOAs bugging them when they park a swiped ship in the driveway!!!

Seems to me that if they were smart businessmen, they'd find a way to cut out the 1M+ ransoms and delays added to their trip price. Someone, somewhere is paying the price for it, and I'd imagine that the cargo ship owners just pass it on to the consumers. I don't recall that there have been any big battles with pirates, seems that they just give up. When the flies are annoying you...get a fly swatter. Sorry, I just think that they are expendable.

Doug, if you have a vessel that will that will float, I'm ready to go get em............

Can I wear an eye patch like the pirates of lore?

Yep, that eye patch will prevent loss of night vision in the covered eye (as long as you remember to uncover it in th dark).............

Man, if I'm HOA president, and the pirates want to paint their house lime green, I guarantee that would be the end of HOA piracy in this century.

I'm flexible, but Lime Green would bring out my inner Tasmanian Devil.

I agree with Doug, it wouldn't cost millions to hire a few sharp-shooters to man a few 50 cal. guns from the deck railings. At least we can show them that we Americans "will spend millions for defense, but not one cent in tribute".........now where have we heard that before?
