ARRRRRGH! Pirates...Really?

I'm still amazed when I hear about these Somalian Pirates taking over US cargo ships, and doing raids.....PIRATES! I don't know why I find it so funny that in modern times pirates can still take over ships! Well, really it's not "funny" because people are in danger, but you know what I mean. I was talking to my boss yesterday about the 3 pirates that the Navy sniped off of the last ship...just took 'em out. I agree that it was the best course of action, as they were holding people hostage, and I made a joke about "hey, at least Obama isn't having them captured nicely, and bringing them back here to sit in front of a judge...". Well, low and behold, what do I hear on the radio this morning? We've captured one and he is on his way to NY for a TRIAL! Insane....seriously, are my tax dollars going towards paying for a pirate trial?!!! ARGH! (haha) What a waste of my "booty"...
