Greetings in that Divine and Most Precious Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ!
Vikings= Rape, pillage, plunder
Pirates= renegade slave raiders/traders
Ninjas= rouge mercenaries
Hmmm.. Which is best seems like a mercilessly insensitive question.

Just so I can make a more informed vote- the rouge of the ninja mercenaries, is that as in "Red" or as in the cosmetic? |

We cannot legislate morality by passing laws controlling firearms. The only evil we can combat lies within our hearts. We need stronger laws to protect the moral foundation of society against the evil of gay marriage. |

In terms of pure combat skills I think ninja training was probably superior.

vikings, at any time.  If we just ignore the fact that they were pagans, murderes and occasionally practised human sacrifice, they were awesome. Besides, we ruled over England(for some time) |

So I take it you don't have an opinion on Waffen-SS vs Viet Cong vs Assyrian? OP - If the pirate could stay sober my money would be that the firelocks would give him an edge. |

It is an education process for me as I learn about the psychology of spiritual apostasy. And others get the benefit of perhaps hearing righteousness for the first time.
Blessed are the Peacemakers, for they shall be called the sons of God.

This vote is really too simple- which out of the three can be combined with all the following?
Teenage.
Mutant.
Turtle.
The Norse climate is obviously too cold for turtles.
Pirates come close- while not a teenager, nor a turtle, the ever loving blue-eyed Thing had a short stint as Blackbeard.

On a side note, the Chinese word for "Viking" simply means "North European pirate."

As much as I love my Viking ancestors...Ninjas win. Vikings nor Pirates could touch a Ninja.
