Is a 14 year old holding an AK-47 on a pirate ship the same as a 14 year
old holding a Glock at the gas station?

No, but a 3 yr old sitting there with his mom on a boarding boat is,
though.

It doesn't make any sense. We know the DOD monitors every inch of the
gulf, they surely must know which mother ship a skiff came from. As to
the "world courts", if you vaporize the mother ship and skiffs, there
will be nothing left for court

If Obama wanted to, he could stop this overnight...

Didn't it happen in the Indian Ocean, thousands of square miles?
That's my understanding. There are hundreds if not thousands of
fishing boats out there, all looking a lot alike.

The problem predates the current administration, no reason to
politicize the discussion.

Not trying to politicize anything, Obama is the one who can stop it
"now". When Bush was in, I had the same feeling, in fact I am sure I
noted it here.

I've heard " rumor story's " of some dudes doing that **** right on
Lake Erie. Looks like its time to carry a Winchester Defender...lol.

The loss of 4 lives, fellow boaters, is a tragic event - no question
about it.

If you were president how would you rank it on a scale of national
priorities compared to Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, terrorism, Iran,
the economic crisis, the impending food and energy crisis, etc. ??

That is why I like Plume's idea of drones. We seem to think it is OK
to kill a terrorist and everyone else in the building.

Especially when you do it by remote control and there are no TV crews
around to show it live on the 6 o'clock news. :-)

I think it's all a matter of priorities. Four americans go where
they didn't belong, in a boat, and pay the price. Is that a crisis or
just a personal tragedy for the friends and families involved? It's
not happening every day, and it's not happening on our door step.
Most of the pirates around here are running marinas and boat yards.

It would still get to the media Wayne. Seems like that stuff does
anymore.
