#1 I keep wondering why they don't just send a few Army/Marines/Navy with guns on each ship passing through, shouldn't take but five folks or so, and this shit would end abruptly.

#4 I have a much cheaper solution to their problems. You don't need the Navy. All you need is a metal locker on board every commercial ship with about 20 Remington Pump shotguns,a shitload of 00 Buckshot ( I like the 3" Magnum with 15 pellets), and enough balls to defend yourself. You can get the shotguns for less than $200 apiece. The buckshot for about .50 a round and start having fun. Burn anyone off the side that tries to climb on, at the Captains discretion of course.

#5 Jeez Louise, people, read the headline! It said they was UN ships which means they was UNarmed and mean to stay that way. UNwarlike! We can't allow people to arm themselves and do anything in selfdefense.
