they should be taken to the center of that town and hung, and everyone told the next time a boat leaves this place to hijack we are coming back and kill everyone and destroy everything here. one warning.

like you said:
God we have become stupid.
The law, American and international, says Pirates must be tried by an admiralty court.
In America that is a Federal District Court
It’s amazing the crap we tolerate these days.
