Sadly, I am unfamiliar with the Somali language.
If it in fact turns out to be English then "Hi, let's hope someone with some money likes you or this isnt going to turn out so well for you, also you just happen to be piloting OUR new ship"
There is a tendency to forget that pirates are not people running around singing pirate songs and wearing funny old hats but rather very cruel people doing inhumane things. |

I use to kill pirates when doing costal patrols on the East Coast and the Caribbean. I have no idea why people romanticize them. It's not much different than "dress like a terrorist day" IMHO/ Primary Test Subject GÇó SmackTalker Elite |

Indeed but many people not having to deal with such things seem to live in another planet and actually manage to make those "victims" or "martyrs" some even admire them, ignorance might be one of the main factors they have such "weird" behaviors. *removed inappropriate ASCII art signature* - CCP Eterne |

Not always. Sometimes it's desperate people doing what they can to make enough to get by. Which is how the Somali Pirates started - International trawlers were massively over-fishing their waters, and with no functinoal government, locals took up the task of protecting their fishermens' livelihood. *Then* they figured out it could be profitable as well.
Oh, and: Blast me rafters and flog me 'round the fleet! I clean failed to clap a deadlight on this here scurvey thread before this watch. CCP, debuff Barges, or buff Ganking. Either will do for me, but we need more Yaaar! in this game lest it become WoW in Spaaaaace! -á~ Me |

While you seem fine with excusing pirates for kidnapping, ****, murder and of course the least of their crimes, ransom.
I happen to find these activities apparently far more objectionable and stand by my original statement that these acts are inhumane and to my original statement i now add inexcusable. Yawn,-á I'm right as usual. The predictability kinda gets boring really. |

Did it occur to you that turning the idea of Piracy or any other evil idea into a cartoonish parody of itself is a way of deflating that 'evil power' that is piracy ?
Nope ?
But feel free to go ahead and complain to Disney about the silly depiction of Pirates in "Peter Pan" and try to please please please change it all to be absolutely historically accurate.
