This is very tragic news indeed and my heart goes out to the families of these victims. I also wish people who want to travel to this part of the world by boat would be more aware of the seriousness of pirate attacks.

[ConservativeNewMedia]

@OceanDesert2 Agreed. No idea why anyone would want to go yachting in that part of the world with the danger that is there.

somilia is a basin of shit and i dont just mean what most of the people smell like. THey need to arm these ships and blow the hell out of them. THe navy should have wasted all of them. Piracy is punishable by death

[notemapez]

What were the details? None! Were they killed trying to fight back or was there a military intervention? The lack of details is very suspicions. Dead bible thumpers, very sad, but they knew the risks, yes? Should american tax dollars go towards protecting Christian missionaries? The had no business in these waters. This is not news, this is conservative spam!

[SomaliDate]
