What’s next for the British Navy? I’m betting pastel uniforms and playing new age soothing music as they hold hands with the pirates and dialog with them about respecting personal boundaries and not being so confrontational when they rape and kill. God help my ancestral home!!
I heard the French have already started spreading British surrender-monkey jokes around the EU.
And sadly, I think I believe every word.
Weep for them, they have lost the soul of the nation they call home.
Rich is right. I might have to rework my cheese eating surrender monkey graphic and change the flag and the hats. And change the cheese to Stilton. Very sad.
An appropriate deterrent would be to do exactly what Cmdr Wilkinson did, but wait until the speedboat is 100 yards from shore in full view of the pirate village, then blast it to smithereens. Message sent. Re-enforce that by sinking every little boat in the harbor. Message received.
Now Drew, THAT would be a deterrent. Punish the pirates where the rest of the people can see it. They aren’t watching CNN or reading the Times, NY or London. A lot of this… people don’t have TVs and the education level is absolutely atrocious.
A perp-walk down the main street of each local capital with a bit of the gallows would be rather appropriate.
Shoot on site - problem solved. How hard is that to understand.
