In all serious this may be a niche market right? Like I go buy a vessel and a crew and just escort ships in Somalia shipping lanes using Russian surplus weapons? Old school Merc/Privateer.

:lol: It was a matter of time before P&R had its first resident defender of the right to life of Islamic terrorists.

Terrorists have no religion they all must die. What called Islamic terrorists is a tool to push laws and agendas, the media is doing great job on keeping them alive in your brain to make you scared all the time.

But again this thread is about pirates, lets stay on topic.

It's called "Shiny Object Syndrome" when something much less significant than it is set up to appear greater than it is in order to distract from more significant things. Some folks here are addicted to shiny objects dangled before them.

they had to know they were in risky waters, no?

Where were you when we were talking about women "asking for it" in cases of rape?

I read a while back there were folks who didn't want to provide private security for their own vessels because international waters were to be "safe" for all. "We shouldn't HAVE TO protect ourselves." Uhh.... if you don't protect yourselves, who's going to do it for you?

High seas piracy Vs. Rape.

How to trivialise completely different issues

Well, when a poster says someone should know better than to do something dangerous and basically they got what they deserved, shouldn't that apply without regard for the situation?

What I often see here on VJ is posters who claim one thing on one issue and then don't apply the same logic on another. We've already seen that accusation earlier in this thread. It's OK for folks to get what they deserved when it comes to piracy. Not so much when it comes to rape.

Why is that?

I guess the only actual comparison that would make any sense to your logic here would be to have a woman walking into an area where there is an extremely high rate of rapes, aware of this statistical reality, and gone there anyway, knowing full well that if they were taken by a rapist that a certain outcome would be almost guaranteed. Has anyone stated there was a factor of 'deserving'... not sure, but maybe you could point out those people that do so.

The news stories have stated the two pairs shut off their radio transmissions as a supposed anti-piracy measure, before they were captured. They knew the area they were going into as high piracy waters.

There's no need to lessen the barbarity of either examples either, or seemingly seek justification of one kind of condemnation based on commentary on the other. That's kind of sick.

It really is boggling to the mind how completely pigheaded some people can become online.

I didn't say or suggest they 'got what they deserved'.

Refusing to use the spellchick!

I have put you on ignore. No really, I have, but you are still ruining my enjoyment of this site. .

Cause you're too dumb to rationalise divergent issues?
