I think piracy is a bit like drinking. You want to stay out all night doing it, you pay the price the next day.

In the immediate nearness of the gold, all else had been forgotten [...], and I could not doubt that he hoped to seize upon the treasure, find and board the Hispanola under cover of night, cut every honest throat about that island, and sail away as he had at first intended, laden with crimes and riches.

Piracy is robbery with violence, often segueing into murder, rape and kidnapping. It is one of the most frightening crimes in the world.

The consistent story is how last generation’s pirates join this generation’s country club-until now.
