Pirate ships were self-governing autonomous collectives, typically with a high degree of internal democracy, that targeted treasure ships and the like, not folks like you and me. Your simple-minded parroting of the usual cliches betrays a lack of interest in the true origin of the word.
Have a piratical day! :) :)
