Somali Pirates Fire at Navy Helicopter, and They Fly Away!!!

Nice....Cruising at 30kts. makes the 2nd hole a bitch,....

You might be right blackwolfe, if the crew is not dead already,.. the lack of apparent training the pirates have make opportunities available.

A sinking and/or burning vessel can change a pirates priorities....

If the Navy had fired on them, the flight crew would have been held liable for not reading them their rights over the PA.

Not so.
A International waters
B Miranda Rights only apply AFTER you're in custody
C Pirates, not covered by anything under Int'l law
D Shooting back is SD.
Odds are good there were hostages or the helo was unarmed.

Besides, there's always tommorow. Now we know where the ship is, its not going anywhere.
