This ^^^ is not good news for APS Pirate Cruise, LLC or the possibly hundereds of persons who have thought of booking a cruise in the near future.
If the pirates are going to remove themselves as targerts of opportunity over such sillly matters as land rights (who ever heard of pirates "owning" land - they just occupied it (usually previously uninhabited islands) and fended off those who came looking to see the big "X" painted on the ground) or young girls raped in the woods - wasn't that a hazzard of pre- or at least wenchhood anyhow (and IIRC it used to happen in the "jungle", not the "woods") then it seems to me they are giving up piratehood and becoming middle class.
We ceratainly cannot allow freebooters to occupy the middle class, for whom, then, will we rail against when the politicians and liberals are declared off limits?
And, besides, I have a RIGHT, I tell you, a right ordained by my ordained minister and his ordained School of Ministry, to hunt pirates. That RIGHT predates the War Between the American Colonies - you know, the one where King George threw a dollar bill across the Mississippi, or some such thing somebody did. That RIGHT is unalienable, which means that undocumented guest workers who were not born here first cannot have that right until they are later on born here by becoming citizens or getting amnesty.
I'm not going to stand for this, I tell you. I'm going to sit right down and call that jacka$$ed bonehead of a Congressman, and both Senators, and tell them that if they expect to see any more PAC money out of me they had better write a law fixing this situation right now!
And I expect all the rest of you to be sending emails to your Senators and Congressmen telling the exact same thing!
No more PAC money until we can hunt pirates just like our great, great grandfathers' indentured servants did for them!
stay safe.
