People who sail around the World have dealt with pirates since Joshua Slocum, the first to do it. He was prepared the first time and disappeared on a subsequent voyage. There is no romance in piracy in the real world, they are simply murderers and should be practice for jets and special ops.
He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself.
