[Bhuryn]

Leave it to the russians. I like russian solutions sometimes.

[Parkbandit]

That's the most awesome thing ever to come out of Russia imo.

Except perhaps for this:

[radamanthys]

I'll bring the beer!

[AnticorRifling]

That's great. I wonder if you can bring your own weapons?

I like the comment saying they are worse than the pirates and they are just paying to commit murder. I think it's more paying to go on a cruise with a high probability of armed in counters that result in you protecting yourself.

[Methais]

Russia is the best cause they don't take shit from anybody.

[iJin]

That isn't funny.

[ViridianAsp]

....Can we dress up like pirates...while we kill said pirates? Oh god, that would be so much fun!

(Seriously though, killing people isn't right...even for fun sounding entertainment.)

[Androidpk]

1. It would be best to dress up as ninjas.
2. They're not people. They're pirates.

[radamanthys]

That would be the most epic thing to happen ever.

Somalian pirates wear cloth, right? What would have the best DF against them?

[Androidpk]

White phosphorus.

[radamanthys]

White phosphorus.

If you wanna go the 'major fire' route, wouldn't napalm or a flamethrower be better?

[Kuyuk]

Lightning bolt! Lightning bolt!

[Androidpk]

Napalm was replaced by the mark 77 bomb, which also includes white phosphorous in it.

[4a6c1]

I like it

Number three thing the russians did better than us. The first two being, of course...

sign me up!

[Jayvn]

Holy fuck that's the most awesome vacation ever....

[radamanthys]

Shit, what would be better than a case (or ten) of beer, a grill with burgers and dogs, a boat and a deck mounted .50 machine gun shooting at pirates?

[4a6c1]

Answer: !NOTHING!

[Androidpk]

Shooting pirates from an AC-130 gunship. :D

[radamanthys]

I'd rather be in the gunner's seat in an A-10, but that's better for big things, like tanks and Decepticons.

Shooting them from the Death Star.

The second one, so it wouldn't blow the planet up.

That's like fishing with hand grenades, there's no sport.

At least on the boat you'd have to chase them a little. It's more like deer hunting from the driver seat of a pickup.

I MEAN A HAND HELD DEATH STAR!!!!6

Ok, that's awesome.

But it would have to have a mini-vader.

Getting to do it for free?

[Tisket]

Man, if I was on one of these cruises and got attacked by pirates I'd totally have a heart attack before I'd even be able to get a shot off.

You're tougher than that. You'd insult them until they committed ritual seppuku.

I might be brave with a keyboard but I'd still wet myself if faced with a real pirate.

That's what the beer's for!

[Sean of the Thread]

Fuck it they should commission privateers again. Allow them to have mk19's and .50's mounted or hell even a 5incher from wwii. Shit would end fast.

New photos released Friday show what the U.S. Navy says is the aftermath of suspected pirates attacking a Sierra Leone-flagged tanker this week in the Somali Basin.

The confrontation between the MV Evita and two suspected pirate skiffs was disrupted by the U.S. Navy destroyer, USS Farragut, according to the U.S Navy. The suspected bandits’ “mother skiff” was destroyed and sunk.

“The pirates have become bolder and are attacking ships further away from the Somali shores,” said Rear Adm. Bernard Miranda of the Singapore navy.

The Evita fired flares and sped up to ward off the attackers, who were armed with rifles and rocket-propelled grenades.

Coalition forces were summoned by the International Maritime Bureau in Kuala Lumpur and the UK Maritime Trade Operations office in Dubai, who received a call of aid from the Evita.

The Evita was also assisted by a Swedish vessel, which located the suspected pirates’ skiffs and witnessed them throwing equipment overboard.

Farragut coalition forces found 11 suspected pirates aboard the skiffs, along with fuel drums and grappling hooks.

Coalition forces released the suspected pirates after making sure they couldn’t attack again.

I dont understand why we are releasing them... I much prefer the French/Russian solution of just killing them.

By releasing them, we're just teaching them not to get caught. And when you do get caught, you'll just be released back to do it again.

Piggy backed this thread, because I think the pirate hunting cruise would be fun.

Did they cut off their trigger fingers? Because otherwise, I think they'll be back ...

[Androidpk]

When pirates are caught most of the times their weapons are confiscated and dumped into the ocean, then the pirates are released..

Yes, that is what I highlighted in the story, but my question is why would we release them?

Are they not breaking several international laws?

Pluck yew!
