I haven't seen this on here before.
Last month's America's First Freedom magazine had an article about an armed ship's captain who had used guns to deter pirates. Had info on why the shipping lines and maritime officials didn't want armed crews, etc. Seems a no brainer to me. Sirens and water cannon are like fighting forest fires with squirt guns. 1 of the few things I support Obama on was his ordering the Navy to shoot a pirate. Let a few get killed and piracy will stop, in MHO. The captain said most nations allow armed ships, some require guns to be locked up while in port.
Feedback??
