SOMALI PIRATES KILL 4 AMERICANS ON HIJACKED BOAT - TAKING BIBLES AROUND THE WORLD

You may've been following this story. Americans who were sailing around the seas and giving out Bibles were caught in the waters of Somali Pirates, and though rescue attempt was made, the four were found dead.

"Scott Underwood Adam and Jean Savage Adam of Marina del Rey, Calif., left, owners of the yacht S/V Quest; and passengers Phyllis Macay and Bob Riggle, both of Seattle. The four Americans were taken hostage when the Quest was hijacked by pirates off the coast of Oman. All four were reported killed Tuesday, Feb. 22, 2011." A video is at the site linked to above!

SIREN and HER MERMAIDS ARE VERY SAD TO HEAR THIS NEWS. We were hoping those Pirates would have some heart!
