Of course most of them don't, but most of them are fishermen.
The reasoning is that some commit crime out of seeing their livelihood abused without legal redress.
Some others will do it out of ill-feeling against the countries who seek to bring them to justice without imposing justice on their own.
Maybe a minority, granted, but I think there is something in it.
I personally do not know any Somali pirates, therefore I can't comment peremptorily either way: all I know for sure is that there are always two or more sides to a story.
