That's the end of this kook!

[Questor]

The captain that was rescued from the pirates just testified that crews should be armed. That's the lat we'll hear about him!

Yea well there wont be no interviews for him on the Today show, or MSNBC. I doubt that we will ever hear his name again!

Maersk Chairman John Clancey said he opposed arming crews because it would lead to "even more lethal weapons and tactics by the pirates and a race that merchant sailors cannot win." He cited liability concerns and laws in most ports that bar armed mariners.

Kerry said that if Clancey could trust skippers like Phillips with ships and cargos worth tens of millions of dollars, "You can trust that captain with a key and a lock and an armory … to keep weapons. … That ought to be doable."

Now thats interesting, Kerry must have forgotten himself for a minute, or was pandering! Ya think?

[rex6666]

What would kerry know about trust in the first place, he has something up his sleeve.

[ironglow]

 Probably one of those disgusting "guns & clinger" guys !

[stubshaft]

He's just extolling one of those obscure legal theories that the obamanation is against.

What give you the right to protect yourself???

[magooch]

And don't forget--Kerry served in Vietnam.  Didn't he play a very large part in winning that war?

[Oldshooter]

Well he might have won it had he been able to write the action report saying so!  But then he defected after he realized how we were brutilizing women and children and commiting war crimes!

[ironglow]

  Kerry "accused" others of war crimes (may or may not be true). However, at the same congressional testimony HE CONFESSED to his own "war crimes".

[Oldshooter]

This is what I was referring to IG. This statement was given in a Senate hearing in 1971 by Kerry, of course he never came up with the thousands of people that he claimed said these things! He also said this type of stuff to the N vietnamese when he was aiding their war effort!

"They told the stories at times they had personally raped, cut off ears, cut off heads, taped wires from portable telephones to human genitals and turned up the power, cut off limbs, blown up bodies, randomly shot at civilians, razed villages in fashion reminiscent of Genghis Khan, shot cattle and dogs for fun, poisoned food stocks, and generally ravaged the countryside of South Vietnam in addition to the normal ravage of war, and the normal and very particular ravaging which is done by the applied bombing power of this country."
