A salute to my fellow Americans

Amen!

Three simultaneous shots in the dark on rolling seas after a wet landing air drop. These guys know their stuff!

According to the news, the pirates were only 70 yards away from the US Navy ship. It would be an easy shot at that short yardage, especially for a Seal.

This type of marksmanship is normal for the Seal Team snipers however that does not make it less impresive

PIRATES, YE BE WARNED

Excellent end to a challenging mission. Unfortunately it is like smashing three ants. . . long past time to go all Orkin on the colony.

It sure is refreshing to hear points of view from people who agree with me. I get in trouble with my wife for expressing these points of view, but then I'm just a brutish barbarian who has has been smiling nonstop for two days now thinkin about how this whole affair came to an end. And even at only 70 yards, the conditions and the location made that shot reasonably difficult. You've gotta love those Seals!!

I think it was a disaster. Reasons...

We didn't ask permission of the French...

or the Germans...

or the Russians.

We didn't take it to the UN and ask for a resolution warning that there would be "terrible" consequences.

The President failed to get the approval of Congress.

We failed to take into consideration the dire effect this will have on the "pirate street."

This will only breed more little pirates.

GO NAVY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well done lads. It's time to arm those cargo ships with deck guns and blow those scum bags out of the water. The only thing that pirates respect is someone with a bigger gun than they have.
