Rocky,

I would say the ones we should shoot at are the ones that refuse to pull away from a cargo ship when hailed and act in an offensive manner. The USS Cole allowed a boat to tie up along side before the suicide bomber pulled the pin-that is TOO close. No boat needs to fish within 200 yards of a cargo ship on the high seas.

Another point: Any small boats with 6, 8 or 10 dudes with RPGs and machine guns coming at you, confirmed by binoculars, are safe targets.
