[@ryrkra8096]

Most ships usually hire PMCs or Full flegded security teams. Some still refuse because they are costly.

[@snow49032]

International maritime law doesn’t work like that, merchant ships aren’t allowed to be armed. They would have to charter private security ships which would be insanely expensive.

[@theDitchdigger456]

@@snow49032 there are slews of ship security firms that specialize in armed ship security for the most part the laws they follow stem form their flag country but its a huge grey area

[@evejunkie1942]

They only operate in national waters for the most part. Being armed in international waters without being recognized as a member of a national military or police force (or paramilitary or what-have-you) is an act of piracy. I used to work in admin when I was a student for a PMC that specialized in hostage return after ransoms were paid. It was a weird job, but I learnt some cool things. There are huge grey areas, but if you are caught armed in international waters by most navies they will detain you.

[@nightwraith1986]

@@snow49032 Wrong im afraid snow. Merchants ships are allowed to carry armed guards and small arms in International waters, and territorial waters that allow it. The reason they dont is that it would require a massive amount of paperwork, insurance documents etc... Not to mention the classic response of "You have weapon A, so I will get weapon B which is bigger" which the pirates would follow.

Every single merchant ship should have armed private security. The problem is they only accept (understandably) ex-special forces ideally or military at the very least. The PMC industry needs to be bigger. I'd prefer if there was a long extensive training course anyone could take and have a chance, that way more people have secure jobs and these pirates would be eradicated. Shit, I'd do it for a bed and two sandwiches a day.

[@evejunkie1942]

Being armed in international waters when not a member of a recognized national military is an act of piracy. SO your answer to the piracy problem is to... make more pirates?

​@@evejunkie1942 Recognised national military? PMC's are business's pal. There not apart of any national military whatsoever. Tf are you talking about?

[@StepByStepStudio]

@thematic Right either you're really thick or very misunderstood. What are you trying to say? Spit it out lad. Do you think PMC's are part of a nations military, yes or no? They're called PRIVATE military contractors and you can get all of their company info online, all the upper management and their details, how long they've been a company, where the address the company is registered at. So, what don't you understand?

[@StepByStepStudio]

@thematic That's answered my question. YOU don't get it you thick fuck. I really try with know-it-all's like yourself but you'll never learn. So, I never said they don't have permission, but this is only in territorial waters (not sure where you got the term 'host nation', and this territorial water that nations own only stretches for a measly 12 nautical miles. After that (So 99% of a ships journey) is in whats called International Waters, where what's known as Maritime Law is in place. NO ONE owns this water. They have their own set of rules and laws. Why do you think L.Ron Hubbard set sail to sea when the IRS was hunting him down for tax evasion? Because his country couldn't do shit, because he wasn't in their waters, meaning he didn't have to abide by their laws. Sunk in yet?

[@y0Milan]

@@ConscriptGaming1991 shit analogy. If you're a farmer and a massive, armed combine harvester comes and robs all your crop over and over what the fuck else do you do

[@ConscriptGaming1991]

roverr maybe that isn’t a good analogy either because the fishing vessels stole nothing they took advantage of rich fishing grounds if someone came into the industry you work in and set up a company that does better than yours because it’s say more technologically advanced you get work elsewhere or go down with your company or possibly compete but you don’t walk down the street and grab a random guy and take him hostage for money and say it’s the only way to make money because it’s not sourcing the firepower boats and men to do such a thing is far harder than finding other work

@@ConscriptGaming1991 Nope. The ships illegally fished in Somali waters. They had no right to intrude and steal the livelihoods of the fishermen of Somalia

Wish someone found a way to get rid of my hypermobility so i could join you lads out there! You'll get them pirates soon, happy hunting!

[@Orcaben1]

@Duner250R basically means your joints extend a bit further than normal which means it's easier to get injured BUT if you build yourself up and your muscles around your joints, then it basically eliminates the getting injured part, which i'm doing, so gonna try and join and convince them that i'm fit for service and training, just gotta show them i'm okay enough to be in, but sadly gonna be hard, everyone gets it at different levels, some gets it rlly bad and can easily dislocate everything and some ppl get it where they don't even realise, i'm basically down there, doesn't rlly have an effect on me so now gonna try and join because i can't not try you know, try and convince them i'll be okay and see what they say, but yeah, no cure, no one really figured anything out with it, i had to figure out the muscle building thing myself believe it or not but it does work!😂

[@Orcaben1]

@Duner250R thanks bro and sadly yeah as they look through your medical records, and if you try and hide it you can get discharged anyways so no point 🙃

[@MASTERJJ1995]

My question if the ship is too dangerous to board with hostage, then why not track the ship with UAV to it's destination and have a strike team to rescue to hostages. And they will have the drop. Better yet foolow the group to find the source. AC-130. Done.

[@Tyrfingr]

One broadside from a WWII battleship with a loudspeaker saying "Next time we're firing for effect..." should keep the pirates on shore re-thinking their lifestyle.

[@Excludos]

No, it would have them killing all the hostages. Not a great idea

[@Sarge92]

i was half hoping hed pop a berret on stand up and say "alright lads this is staff sergeant henno garvie of her majesty's sas i am taking control and we will be engaging the vessel and slotting those bastards"

No point in warship being at sea if it can’t do anything ,

[@hmrdev-billnye8166]

Unless you are a naval captain, in the military, specialise in anti piracy or hostage rescue and you’re typing this from the comfort of your home with your standard civilian job, you have absolutely no right right to say that they are doing the wrong thing and what they could be doing differently. If you want to, join the Navy, join the special forces, and say it to their face. I’d like to see you do better before you somehow criticise thinking somehow you know better. (not my comment)

[@12marcusboy]

Do they have security or armed on vessels now to protect crew and cargo? Would make sense putting something in place with all these attacks and such

[@joelangley7974]

A lot of ships do have private security firms onboard, a lot unfortunately don’t, most likely due to cost.
