Goodnight Sweet Pirates

Brb, going to the Indian ocean in my yacht like a dumbass.

Reminds me of the idiots who were hiking at the Iraq/Iran boarder.

Not as bad, but still fking stupid given the circumstances.

[Duffs88]

Why the hell are they going over to there waters they are crazy they asked for it the pirates have nothing better to do

[LongHornsBruh]

theyre on a 1965 boat that barely runs with 4-5 sweaty black men carrying ak-47's

[Water_American]

I don't even understand why the navy has to fire warning shots and stuff. Just kill them all. They're lawless scumbags who deserve to die. So much easier just to blast their faces off and throw em in the water.

In b4 crybabies.

P.S - this is what the pirates would do if given the chance

[Gator286]

Pretty sure those are blackwater guys. I think they all are ex special forces though?

Yeah, they were contractors.

If you can spare a few bullets and reduce the risk of losing out on hostages, why not..

I guess it depends on the circumstances. If they're all exposed to long-range fire then just get rid of them, but if they're hiding out with the hostages going guns ablaze might not yield the ideal outcome.

[NYRB]

inb4 they're all killed with ruthless efficiency.

as for the ****lia thing, one of the very few times something like that has ever failed. best trolls can do is reference something 20 years ago while having no idea how many similar operations have been successes since then. oh well

seals vs pirates part 2

I was just referring to pirates in general. Everything is so politically correct these days. They are pirates...cmon now...fuking pirates. just kill them

Those were not navy seals. They were American contractors who were ambushed in Falujah Iraq back in 2004.

You might be thinking of what happened in ****lia back in the early 90's. But i think those were either marine Recons soldiers, or delta force operators that were dragged and dismembered.

Stephen "Scott" Helvenston (June 21, 1965 – March 31, 2004) was a former United States Navy SEAL, and worked as a security contractor for Blackwater Security when he was killed in the 31 March 2004 Fallujah ambush within days of arriving in Iraq.

So you verified he was a contractor when he was captured and killed, not working in a seal team...cool.

lol @ silly americans

remember these navy seals ?

You do realize that those were civilian contractors, right?

[BlackCarter]

I don't agree with his post, but these guys are ex special forces. They are heavily armed. It's not like its some diplomat with a pistol.

You're right... However, they are defined as civilian contractors.

You're both right? How did this happen!

[SeanP35]

ITT: The ****lian pirates are just pirates and have no reason at all to be doing what they do aside from the thrill of killing people and making a bit of cash on the side, Navy SEALs are the most badass people ever and there is no way ****lian pirates can kill any of them no matter what they do, a SQT video gets posted showing SEALs going through no more difficult training than other soldiers, and all news sources including Yahoo give all information and hold no bias to make sure you get all the news and have an unbiased perspective on all things going on.

Didn't know what, oopsssssss

One was, but these contractors don't get any military support. They roll around in civilian cars with their own equipment. No fancy infiltrations or anything.

But the jakes on them since that place was leveled to the ground anyways.

[Poon_Handler]

I wonder how USA will deal with them. I've seen videos where the Spetsnaz handcuff them to their boat and blow them up.

Just because they aren't with the military does not mean they don't have any support from the government or lack good equipment and vehicles.
