If the pirates start killing Americans, that will be unfortunate.
The reality is though, that the USA can't simply negotiate with these people. I don't think the Americans should give them anything at all, and should continue arresting them and persecuting them while at the same time working towards a more stable government in Somalia.

I was kinda liking the whole red dot between the eyes negotiations...

This will probably lead to more people being killed / injured by the pirates.
Until now, they hadn't really hurt many of their captives, right? it was mostly a business/ransom thing if I understand correctly...
