My .02:

The way to stop the piracy is to go back to the rules of old.  Caught attacking ships...?  You are immediately hung at the nearest port and left to rot.

THEY DON't refuse to the best of my knowledge.....but by the time they can react to the distress call, it's well too late........

which brings us back to arming the ships. if not arming them, arm at least some of the crew...or have armed security on board.....and no restraints on if or not they can fire upon something that appears to be these pirates.

You can generally tell someone who's on the edge of holding their point together by their attacks on people who aren't even talking to or referencing them.

You'll note that I don't have an argument placed here to support, so that makes no sense.
