File under: Pirates

#1 One of the defendants told the court: "It's a tragedy what happened here. Our country, my country is broken. I'm not a pirate."

"I'm a simple, but well-armed, fisherman. I fish for tankers and cargo ships. It's our culture, you wouldn't understand."

#2 It's not piracy. We're just redistributing the wealth so everyone has a fair share. Ask your President!
