Re: You are being lied to about pirates
It's funny how the US ship captain (and a Vermonter as well) is being called a "hero" even though he was taken hostage. I don't see what's heroic about being taken hostage? Why does our society automatically label such people as heroes? I thought heroes are people who've actually saved lives? Done something noteworthy?
I think the "pirates" have more guts and are more likely heroes because they dare to stand up to the status quo of the seas.
