Blake managed to shoot one of the pirates in the hand, but then his rifle jammed. Otherwise he might be alive today.

I always quote Liberty Valance. Ransom Stoddard: You're not going to use the story, Mr. Scott?
Maxwell Scott: No, sir. This is the West, sir. When the legend becomes fact, print the legend.

The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance (1962)

When there is too much 'heroics', Elmat's antenna comes up and tune in to wayo.

These guys must have gone to town. Not knowing the 'law of the land' Misbehaved. Were overcharged. Did not pay. Went back to the boat.

Locals went here just to give them a lesson. kinda of "let's give a scare those guys for them to behave"

It all went badly when the "let's give a scare those guys for them to behave" turned ugly when Peter went for his rusty weapon.

The guy must have got scared. Note he didn't shoot the allegedly crewmaster, whom he supposedly was holding with a gun to his head.

He might have just shoot one of his friend on his hand. Facing a crazy kiwi high on Brahma beer shoot the crazy Kiwi not knowing the weapon was rusty.

Then "When the legend becomes fact, print the legend."

I always learn the 'law of the land' wherever I go...
