Pirates have spokesmen now?
"no fight broke out and that the pirates were chewing khat, a stimulant herb, when they spoke toSomalia Report, suggesting that the pirates were impaired."

All ships need to carry weapons so they can protect themselves. Not allowing them to do so is for what reason? The pirates need to be blown out of the water immediately and don’t wait and ask for permission.

Machetes. Cut them up and send them back to the mother ship.

There is no reason they can’t in international waters. But the easiest way to deter boarding is to simply raise the ladder.

Colleagues. I love it.

There was a great opening scene in “The Expendables” where Stallone’s group took out pirates.

I think it would be an ideal bachelor party expedition. For a flat rate you get to ride along on an armed cargo ship, with all the beer and ammo you need...

Yes they can carry weapons at sea but many of the ports will not allow them.

Actually was about to post the exact same thing. The corporate culture has quite a reach.
Look on the bright side “colleagues” the Bonus checks for the quarter will be up.

Bachelor Party? Why not make it a Bill Ingvall, Jeff Foxworthy, and Larry the Cable Guy Hunting Party?

Private security with their own arms is another answer.
