It's all fun and games until...

"All we wanted was money. Oh, that's illegal? Then we wanted to protect our fishing and ... something noble... We're patriots, not pirates. Spelling error, really. Heh, heh... We're just not very good at semaphore. ... Don't shoot."

When I have Pirates ask me for $20 million for food, I just buy food and bring it to them instead.
