American Football star player Colin Kaepernick has launched a scathing attack on those responsible for shooting at oncoming Somali pirates in the horn of Africa. The incident occurred when a group of security personal on-board a shipping vessel decided to defend with force against the pirates, as opposed to being held hostage for most likely a large ransom.
Kaepernick, upon hearing of the self defense was outraged, immediately calling a press conference and tweeting about some "important news coming". At the hastily arranged press conference Kaepernick announced he was starting a website and fund to aid the suffering and misjustice on the Somali Pirates. He also decided the incident was Trumps fault and said he would leave no stone unturned in seeking justice for 'his brothers'.
"Today, my friends, is another truly dark day in America's journey to equality. Some of my brothers lives were taken, innocent men shot at - without having been convicted of a crime in court, and all because of president Trump and past governments failure to protect African Americans." Interrupting his speech a Fox reporter informed him that Somali was in fact not part of Africa Kaepernick replied "Don't you see, that's the problem, its happening IN Africa too." When it was suggested that the security personal who shot at the pirates were acting in self defense a clearly frustrated Kaepernick replied that "you guys just don't get it, if it was a white Somali it wouldn't have happened, they would have been allowed to board the ship, as should be the case."
Speaking on video conference after Kaepernick was musical superstar Beyonce, who revealed plans to release a song to highlight the plight of Somali pirates. Wearing a T-shirt with the slogan "#somalilivesmatter" Beyonce insisted we stop trying to take advantage of others, before announcing there was a meet and greet for $1,000 per person after the call.
Attacks on vessels from Somali pirates have become more common in recent months as pirates seek to earn lucrative rewards by carrying out such attacks. It is not known what injuries or casualtys occurred during the incident but Madonna did offer to adopt any minors who have suffered.
