what the hell pirates

[Robert.Fitzgerald]

Get some SWAT Gunboats, learn how to fly them then take the fight to them. I can kill most of the tridentes I've seen without even losing my shields in my Orca. I'm fairly sure it'd be within the LPI's RP to use them, and they also work well against smugglers. The smugglers work with the unlawful gunboats, so if you catch a smuggler expect to find a tridente coming (in populated hours).

They populate New York (though not to the exaggerated levels here) because there are a lot of traders, a lot of people to pirate / kill and not much resistance at most times.

Edit: Restricting gunboats is not really the solution, given not all liberty unlawfuls in gunboats are losers. The players are the problem, so beating them out of liberty can work. Just don't send small groups of bombers against them unless there's a giant skill gap between you - you'll likely die or just teach them how to fight bombers properly.
