I just read where the Marines booted a gang of pirates off of a German ship and arrested them.
How come they did that?
Why didn't they simply make them walk the plank of keelhaul them or something befitting a pirate?
On the same thread, I saw that one person suggested breaking out the USS Iowa for use in ending the vile practice of piracy.
The USS Iowa is a World War 2 battleship that has 16 inch old-school guns on it. These guns are ideal for shoreside bombardment.
The discouragement of piracy is a fairly simple concept.
You simply find out which ports the pirates are running out of and flatten it with 16 inch gunfire.
After doing that a couple of times, the local governments get the idea that they ought to start policing themselves.
As disgusted as I have been recently, I think this just might be the way to go,
