to be fair some pirates did end up living long lives and never getting caught and sent to the gallows. I think there was a Chinese woman pirate who actually ended up living quite long and died rather wealthy.

Edit-just checked it was Ching shih.

Full honor to Ching Shih and all others who faired well. But a Pirates nation is a no go in my mind. And we should have those gallows :D

She was sex worker first then she was sent in front of pirate lord or something like that and he allowed her to command huge numbers of ships and she was fearsome to the point where she was allowed to live till natural death occured or something like that long time ago I was reading about her

Gallows? Really? If YOU wanna rot on execution dock be my guest, but I won't be hung by anyone. (I'm not telling you to kill yourself)

Being hung is not a very glorious way to go. All the best pirates died by cannon and cutlass, not at the end of a rope.

I recommend to everyone to watch Black Sails. Very good pirate show.

I've heard of him. All I was saying that the most famous pirates either lived, got hit with cannonballs or taken by swords. Examples include blackbeard and Black Bart Roberts. What's glorious about this friend of yours?
