You're going to love this. CNBC found out why the ships who are getting attacked by pirates

Don't have guns to protect them. BECAUSE their machinery insurance would be null and void.

But the best part is... That now their paying PIRATE INSURANCE TOO! LOL

I'd like some Republican to explain what this has to do with trial lawyers. I thought, according to them, businesses only got shook down by insurance companies because of "frivolous" lawsuits.

Maybe we can use this as an example of why we don't want insurance companies in the Healthcare business anymore!

PS Wouldn't be funny if they all had AIG for an insurance company.

2. "You're making a claim on your pirate insurance policy?"

"I'm sorry, but you were attacked by terrorists - not pirates. Now if you had opened a terrorist policy with us you could file a claim. But, only if the attack occurred in an area without pre-existing terrorist activity."

4. LOL!

5. Hahaaa!

And then the insurance scammer gets into his very expensive car to go to his very elaborate home after a dishonest day's work.

:rofl:

Sorry, but you're the one who decided to use the ship at sea.
