Time to exterminate some pirates.

People just trying to do their job and go home to their family at the end of a day are being killed by those who care nothing human life. Unfortunately a disease with the symptoms of pacifism, liberalism, political correctness and a POTUS who cares more about himself and his own goals is in charge of this train wreck.

In closing the United States used to be the most powerful nation in the world, but has now become a nation whereupon we are being slowly bled to death by the actions (and lack of action) of others and with each drip, the message is being sent loud and clear.
