Unlike you and many others, I think that the Pirate of the Caribbean… should never have been knighted. It was always clear to anyone who looked at his activities would have had questions… serious questions. People – many of them decent people – were so glad to open their pockets and politicians were so eager to back-up their pick-ups that they did not take the time to notice that he was busy picking people’s pockets – worldwide!
If it was wrong to bestow the honor on him… then it is right to revoke… rescind… yank it away from him. Mshaka @ http://www.AntiguanVoices.com
