    Default Cruise Ship Avoids Pirate Attack !!!!!!!!

    CNN) -- A luxury cruise line will re-evaluate whether to offer future cruises off the coast of Somalia after pirates attempted to attack one of its ships early Saturday.

    The pirates were in two small boats and were carrying machine guns and a rocket-propelled grenade when they attempted the attack on Seabourn Cruise Lines' "Spirit" about 5:35 a.m. local time Saturday, Deborah Natansohn, president of the cruise line, told CNNRadio.

    The ship was carrying 150 passengers and a crew of about 160.

    The ship, she said, immediately instituted its emergency response system. "The occupants of those boats did not succeed in boarding the ship and eventually turned away ... our captain and crew did a terrific job taking responsive action."

    yeah I saw a guy on msn talking about modern day pirates, he was acting objective, but from his tone you can tell that he thought they were cool.

    some douchebag was also saying that they were terrorists. apparently when someone robs people now, it's an act of terrrorism. I really don't see much difference between piracy and the IRS.

    Yes ,you are correct....

    i think you could be a white skinhead wearing a turban,and if you threw a brick at a biuding,they would consider it an act of terrorism.And probably find a country to "show democracy"(IE:imperialism)

    Clearly, they need to give more free cruise tickets to ninjas.

    ha, a ninja /pirate brawl on the highseas....Sounds like fun.

    but i don't think you'd ever get a bunch of pirates to fight in a Bamboo thicket.

    Well technically piracy has always fallen under terrorism...but I hear ya. Still given the nature of the attack it's just god damned funny.

    Anyone here see "The Life Aquatic"?

    yeah well seeing as how modern day pirates rarely actually harm people, and you know that most of the people that live in somalia aren't going on cruises, I'm don't find this whole thing to be much of an outrage.

    Pirates vs. Ninjas, just like in 'Tenchu: Stealth Assassins' on the Playstation...sneaking up on filthy pirates and slitting their gizzards!

    the thing i like about pirates is their lack of stealth , its more fun to rush into things guns a blazin than to do it slowly and all sneaky like. the lack of class and technique is what makes a pirate truly cool in my eyes i dont want fancy weaponry or techniques, when a baseball bat with a nail will do
