The UN today announced that it has stopped an armed attempt by Somali pirates to hijack a Norwegian ship. The pirates tried to ditch their weapons, but they were taken prisoner aboard a Canadian ship in the Gulf of Arden. The pirates were detained and questioned, but eventually allowed to go free. (It appears that we are now we are giving a slap on the wrist for armed pirates attacking ships attempting to take hostages)
Here is the Gun Shy special pseudo comical ending:
In a humanitarian gesture, the Somali pirates were given $100 US (they asked if they could get it in Euros instead) and a white 1962 Ford Fairlane automobile upon being released from custody. There was no news footage of the actual release, but the attached photo shows how the pirates should have been sent on their way home just after their release by the Canadians...
