On your Marque

Ron Paul recently suggested that congress issue Letters of Marque and Reprisal as a means of dealing with the Somali pirates. This is absolutely legal under the US Constitution. It also sounds like a potentially cool campaign premise. Me being me I'd probably use a sytem like Unknown Armies or Over the Edge for a mystical wierdness pirate hunting or Feng Shui for an over the top action movie pirate hunt, because I suspect I'd be bored with a purely realistic contemporary pirate hunts, even if I didn't start adding in all the complexities of the real world political situation.

But done right, it could really rock!
