This has gone too far

 

All the battleships on earth are worth diddly squat if the politicians in charge are too timid to use them. This situation has become asinine; one old fashioned destroyer could sink every last pirate ship up and down that coast and not even run out of ammo. The same job could be done by a dozen assault helicopters. But nobody has any balls any more. Nobody. 

1. Is there any reason a cruise ship could not have a locker of a half dozen .50’s and a couple of dozen cans of 5-1?  Shit, I’d PAY the captain to man that station. And that way the pirates would have a good indicator of when they were going to say hello to allah. (I’m a cannon-cocker - I like to bracket my targets and I like to play with my food...)

2. I agree with T.  I volunteer to man a .50 caliber.

3. Indeed. Hire a trained security crew, with night vision and belt fed weapons. Hell YEAH! I’ll go to work for a cruise ship security crew!

4. Nuke the pirate sites from orbit. It’s the only way to be sure.

5. Yo! T!  Need an assistant?  I’ll bet you I can draw a happy face on their boat before it sinks!

6. All I want for Christmas is a mini gun with a belt full of tracers on a cruise ship going by Somolia. Please Santa please.......

7. Hey, you know what!  Blowing a gennuuuwynne pirate out of the water would be pretty good entertainment for the cruise passengers!  You might even have a shipboard lottery for a chance to man one of the 50’s.  Great fun for everyone.  Talk about your performance art - that would be a real performance.  Pirates of the Caribbean come to life.
