Pras is Pirate Fighter

Pras of the Fugees is caught up in this whole pirate nonsense. He was making a documentary about the subject and feared for his life when he found himself under fire after pirates invaded the Maersk Alabama cargo ship and took Captain Richard Phillips hostage.
Pras, who immediately relocated to Ethiopia after the terrifying incident, tells CNN, "We were there last week when the captain got captured. We were supposed to actually meet with a couple of the pirates, but the capture happened so we had to retreat... There's a big anti-American sentiment going on (among the pirates) right now."
Regardless he’s going back.
Calling for fans to pray for him, he wrote on Twitter, "I'll try to keep all of you posted in Somalia if I don't get back here in at least three days then know something went down, but hopefully all your prayers will guide me down to the gateway of hell. ...We're supposed to go on one of the ships tomorrow!! It's on!!"

That’s activism on a whole nother level…Good luck and God speed Pras.
