Piracy on steep rise

[Jimbuna]

Where's the Christian and sense of fair play in you....throw them overboard (even if 130 miles offshore) and give them a fighting chance with the sharks and a possible swim back ashore.

Just remember folks that these pirates aren't in it to make themselves rich but rather to keep from starving.

I forgot that the cost of fuel to go fishing is more than to attack an unarmed merchant.

Then tell them to stop buying rifles, ammunition, RPGs, fast boats and fuel, and buy some food.

I wish I could earn $3m for 134 days work, of which only a couple were probably 'work'. (source - http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow...181529222.html)

"Four months ago, during the monsoon rains, we decided to set up this stock exchange. We started with 15 'maritime companies' and now we are hosting 72. Ten of them have so far been successful at hijacking," Mohammed said.

"The shares are open to all and everybody can take part, whether personally at sea or on land by providing cash, weapons or useful materials ... we've made piracy a community activity."

Must have a word with those nice people down at the Joke Centre....could well be the next form of growth in the employment sector.

Just because a couple of kingpins made some real money don't try and claim that tricked down to the rank and file. They are doing it for barely sustenance wages.
