Pirates

Have you heard about the real life pirates that are holding the oil tanker or ship hostage and asking for a huge ransom of millions of dollars?

This sounds far out with pirates in today's sophisticated world. When I think of pirates, I usually think of Capt. Jack, and that type of thing - not honest to goodness, real live pirates!!!!!!!

There has to be some sort of way to control these types of situations and stop them from happening so often, especially with all the high tech naval ships, equipment, manpower, etc., available to the world today.
