My inner Ronald Reagan would probably Navy SEAL the hell outta those turdlets. I want skullpoles on the decks of US merchant vessels and I want the stars and stripes to scare the shit out of people. We're the most powerful nation on the planet (or so we often suggest) and yet some two-bit jerkoffs with a third grade education and a couple of AK47s think they can harass our civvie shipping? Pfft. We've failed because they even contemplated it.

Security on merchant vessels is a joke at best, but it was also a reflection of the perceived threat at the time. Now that the threat level has been increased due to a h'yoog incident, I predict that black-stripe-over-the-eyes types will be commissioned to protect such ships. E-Xe come, E-Xe go. (rimshot).
