Several Kinds of Stupid

They were pirates – major stupidity. They were Somalis – so had probably experienced hunger, if not actual malnutrition while they were growing up, so their brains wouldn’t have been top class anyhow. Not to mention alcohol &/ drug use.

So hey, why not take on a type 22 frigate. It’s not as if the prospect of jail somewhere in Africa is that appealing anyhow.
