any updates?
Yeah...I posted one. Apparently we don't have a Navy sufficient enough to
handle the pirates. :)
I agree. Let's quadruple the Navy's annual budget, buy a hundred thousand
inflatables equipped with a 50 cal. machine gun and a radar mast with blue
flashing lights. Enlist and commission an additional couple of hundred
thousand personnel and go into the law enforcement business, world wide,
stationing the new craft in every major port and patrol every nautical mile
of the world's shipping lanes..

Or we could try Harry's suggestion.... cut and paste em' to death...
At least I know how to do that. Your computer skills are...well, no more
developed than any your other skills, though I do understand you know
how to be bounced down a flight of stairs.
Harry, we're talking about ways to do in the pirates here. Stop trying to
change the subject.
Your moronic statement of this morning is creating a hilarious ruckus. You
should be proud!
Right, Herring. Unlike you and the rest of the right-wing retardos, I
don't think the ka-billions of dollars we spend each year on the
military buy us what we need. We certainly don't have the wherewithal to
fight a major war against a big-league country, we've been fighting in a
fifth-rate non-country (Iraq) for more than five years, we're doing
diddley in Afghanistan, and we can't even interdict Somali pirates.
Oh, and thanks to the military and officers like you, we got our asses
kicked in Vietnam.
Good job, Brownies.
