Pyrate is a variation of the spelling of pirate. Spelling during the 1700 and 1800's was haphazard and there were many ways to spell pirate, with pyrate as one of the most commonly accepted forms.
Pyracy in the 1700-1800's was defined as the act of theft on the high seas (out of the jurisdiction of any country). Pyrates could be captured and tried in any country and were subject to any sentance laid down by that country.
Henry Morgan was considered one of the most successful pyrates of all time. He attacked many French and Spanish ships illegally and when he was captured by the English, the Queen knighted him and made him admiral of all the English fleets sailing the Caribbean.

A group of volunteer Lifer Punks, who create shows, book bands, and host events for the local punk rock scenes. Often to join you must know a pyrate and while being prospected you can do a multiple of events like handing out flyers for shows or helping book bands or providing security at shows.

A group of punks that fancy themselves above others, to spite their smoke screen outreach activities. In actuality this group follows dog whistles by whatever pretty face comes along, not caring to gather the full story before allowing themselves to be whipped up into a frenzy threatening direct violence against others. The wrongfully accused are equally guilty as the actually guilty. They play their silly games, and wear pathetic patches. But as long as they associate with known alcoholics with a long history of psychosis, brain swelling, and false accusations, who could easily be proven to fabricate sob stories to suit their interests while barely able to keep a straight narrative there is no 'chapter' that should be taken seriously.
Yo, I avoid the Pyrate Punx like the plague.
Yeah, me too. What posers....
