sunken pirate ship found

Hello Tom,

Anyone that has known me for very long on this forum knows I hate government waste and the top-heavy bureaucracy inherent within. I also despise creating laws that benefit the entity called "the state" with no regards for the people who actually are the state. I also despise it when archies refuse to collaborate with treasure hunters.

Having said that, I can't be in agreement with your recent posts encouraging everyone to steal artifacts that are in state waters. Like it or not, it is simply wrong to do so...not to mention your loved ones wouldn't benefit too much if you ended up in jail. Besides, if you would steal from them, why wouldn't I wonder if you would ever steal from me? I could go on and on about the ethics of diving on wrecks, but just know that our hobby (or the salvage industry itself) will be destroyed by guys who think like you. It will only become more difficult. I don't know how most feel on this forum, but I would humbly ask that you please refrain from promoting illegal hunting.

Respectfully,
Darren

Very good point Darren! It's definitely tempting give the government the finger as I have bitched about many times before.

Pcola
 

I concur Darren.
