      What!!!John Lennon…no lyrics for the family of the 3 pirates?
      Don’t they deserve some sympathy too?
      NEways….if it’s true that a cop is dead in the line of duty, then condolences to his family. These guys put themselves through danger to make us safe.

    Continue the shooting, blast all the pirates of the globe, hope that no police or joint services injured/killed. Must be on their heels, they have to be eliminated those blood suckers, would be a great relief for those poor fishermen.

    Finally something to thank the Police / Coast Guard for since their anti-piracy campaign was launch with much fanfare.

    NB: One of the reasons the pirates maybe were ashore is the very swells affecting the entire western Atlantic and Caribbean
