Pirates? Bring’em back to Norfolk and hang’em.

[unkus]

Let them have an accident at sea.

[July4]

I agree. Hang them.

[Roccus]

Take no prisoners!

[allmendream]

Make them walk the plank?

Keelhaul them?

40 lashes?

[July4]

And let’s don’t do a lot of talking. Capture them, hang them, and drop them into the sea. We don’t need any more trash in this country.

Mr. Yardarm meet pirate, pirate meet Mr. Yardarm. Perhaps you two would like to hang out for a while.

Navy Ponders What to do With Pirates.....

Ker-plunk!

[Poison Pill]

Ropes, yardarms, whats the problem?

Moving Target Practice

[Tahoe3002]

Please, no more somalis in the USA.
Re-embark Marines on USN ships, no prisoners.

[PzLdr]

The words ‘rope’ and ‘yardarm’ come to mind.

[Non-Sequitur]

Don’t take them alive. Problem solved.

[JamesP81]

Hang them from the yardarm, or have them shot out of hand. This is how pirates were dealt with and eliminated in the past. No need to depart from proven methods in this case.

[JamesP81]

Keelhauling sounds good too.

[massgopguy]

Cliches......FLOG THEM THROUGH THE FLEET!

[NEPAConservative]

What Pirates? Next you’ll be posting tales of terrorists. Sheesh Reality people ;)

[Rummyfan]

How about... making an announcement that they will be fired upon and sunk on sight. And then follow that up with appropriate actions. I think that will cut down on the activity significantly.

[albie]

Let’s first rehabilitate them. Then kill them.
