Do pirates really exist?

My teacher says they do. She in fact says there was a Black Beard whose real name was Edward Teach, she also goes on to say that they still exist in Somalia. However, I have my doubts. First off, there is no treasure in Somalia - in case you do not know, Somalia is often considered the rubbish bin of the world (Mauretania being the recycling bin). Moreover, if this is indeed true, then how old are video cameras? How is it possible that in the eighteenth century they were able to make coloured motion pictures when they did not even know that Pluto was not a planet! Lastly, whenever I search the internet for Captain Jack Sparrow's demise it comes up with nothing! How is this possible? Where is the evidence?

Update:

But what about Captain Jack Sparrow?

  • Me thinks we are being "trolled".

    You know damned well Captain Jack Sparrow is a Disney character! LOL

    That's what blew your cover.

    Captain Jack Sparrow? LOL

    Just for the record --- modern pirates make their money from raiding ships and stealing the cargo.

    Many are drug runners and gunner runners.

    Some are even involved in the Slave / Skin Trade in Eastern Africa and Southeast Asia.

    Pirates of the Americas are usually involved in drugs and boat stealing --- stolen pleasure yachts is BIG business --- they Shanghai the boat, dump the passengers if the passengers are lucky, repaint the boat, and resell them -- just like car thieves.

    Pirating today, in fact, is much, much larger than it ever was in the "olden days". (So is slavery)

    Captain Jack Sparrow? Still laughing!

  • People who board ships and rob them are pirates, they do exist. It's not necessary to have an eye patch, a wooden leg and a parrot to be a pirate.

  • Yes, they exist. Watch the news.

  • Yes they do exist. There's this new version of pirates their called Somalian pirates and use gins instead of swords

  • yes but not the kind u see in the movies

  • Anything can be true if you keep saying it. Nothing is true if you can't be forced to admit it.

  • PIRATES EXIST DUMB DUMB!!! :)
