Sharpton refers to Pirates as Somali Coast Guard

In Sharpton's defense (I can't believe I just typed that) the Somali's do consider the pirates as a sort of Robin Hood. But talk to anyone who served in Somalia and you will hear just how much the Somalis hate Americans, so my question is why should I care if they consider themselves Coast Guard, they are still an enemy of the U.S. and all it stands for.

SHARPTON (12:08): You can call me now at 1 877 532 5797, (to say) something about the so-called pirates. They call themselves voluntary Coast Guards in Somalia, which may be more apt. Ah, whatever your view.
