Bloods And Crips


After the internationally watched episode that took place with the Somali pirates and the American Navy ship this past weekend. Now the American public has suddenly acquired a wealth of information that we didn't previously know anything about. It appears this has become a lucrative way to make a living in these lawless waters off the coast of Somalia .As it turns out there is even a weekly report warning ship and tug opertors scandalous incidents at sea. Read the report for yourself. http://www.icc-ccs.org/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=308&Itemid=10 Looking at the newsletter's motto, until now this has been regarded largely as a business expense.

With piracy becoming the career choice of many who reside in the Somali region . I think we can safely say it didn't just start last week. These dissident groups are nothing more than ambitious gangs looking to come-up in the world. I have a theory about why they waited until now to make themselves known, but that's just my opinion. The fact is we did what was needed by taking these criminals out. We sent a strong message to gangs that we're still a force to be reckoned with. Unlike suicide bombers, these terrorist don't want to die. Though it is rumored that corrupt government authorities and officials are involved with this practice for a cut of the loot. I said gangs and not armies because these groups operate independently. No one will admit offering these outlaws sanctuary and freedom from prosecution. Only four people kept a whole navy at bey. For a minute there I was worried. The way it was finally resolved restored my faith. Though it was about three days too late. Now I think we are safe from the Bloods and Crips.
