That is an extremely poor way to go about this. That means our navy could litteraly summarily execute anyone they capture in war or smugglers, pirates etc.

Yes, I just realized that from a second reading... As the amendment is functionally impractical, I request it to be removed from consideration if possible.

I personally don't mind if we go to a final vote, unless someone else has an amendment.

This has enough votes to fail, SEnators have 24 hours to change their votes.

"It is by cutting off supplies, not by attacks, seizures or assaults, that I expect deliverance from enemies" - John Adam's

"Of a common class of mankind are actuated by no nobler a principle then self-interest, enlist the seamen and give him all the prizes. If our enemies, with the best established and most formibable navy in the universe have found it expediant to assign all the prizes to the capturers, how much more is such a policy essential to our infant fleet?" - John Paul Jones in a letter to financier Robert Morris

Meant to post these sooner than now but I have been tied up with other things.

NAY I guess since it doesn't really ban privateers anyway.
