In the article which prompted your response it was stated that US
flagged vessels are being operated by non-English speaking individuals.
no, not non-English-speaking (note the required second hyphon) individuals, but
rather non-US-citizens operating US documented vessels. this is illegal, and
the US CG has a legal right to board US-flagged vessel anywhere in the world.
If the vessel is operated by a non-citizen, the CG has a right -- indeed, a
duty -- to sieze the vessel.
you don't like that, don't operate a US-flagged vessel as a non-citizen.
what the hell do yo expect, dood?
