“Because the last time the law got its hands on a pirate of that stature, it yielded the following... anger, hostility, resentment, purges to combat it all that only resulted in amplifying it all, and a resistance movement that, since Captain Vane was hanged, has done nothing but grow strong enough to control almost every part of this island outside of Nassau. And you ask why I chose not to help start the cycle all over again?” - Max
