As would I.If they stuck with the peace part of their name as well as the green, then I'd be all for it.
Resorting to Piracy shows the trouble with their claims as a peace organisation.
If you're going to be pirates, at least have the decency to fly the Jolly Roger.Scouse Git (2) La Fayette Adam Smith Solomwi and Loinburger will not be forgotten.

Piracy? Yes. Twenty years in prison? No. Punished and fined to a lesser extent? Absolutely.
Kind of reminds me of a funny/cool/pathetic story the Canadian military pulled a few years back. We had a good chunk of our military equipment (vehicles, etc) on a private cargo vessel returning from Bosnia, IIRC. The owner of the ship hadn't paid the crew due to some dispute or another, so the crew stopped the ship dead off the coast of Canada and refused to take it to port until they settled the issue with the shipping owner. The Canadian government tried to mediate, but neither side would budge. Eventually, we sent out some armed naval personnel on a helicopter, took over the ship and forced it to dock."The French caused the war [Persian Gulf war, 1991]" - Ned

Um......... did any of you actually read the article?
They didn't seize control of the ship, they just chained themselves to it. They refuse to leave until the ship turns around. I can't believe anyone would consider that piracy. Trespassing, certainly, and probably some other minor crimes, but nothing like piracy. No threats, no violence, no force. Just hoping that their insistent presence can effect change.

The key, of course, would just be to hire a couple of ninjas to deal with them. Ninjas hate pirates. With one swipe of a ninja sword the pirates would be headless and then the ninja could pop a 10 foot boner for charity... OMFG ninjas rule!!!!!

Sounds like piracy to me.Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...Comment
