Anyone may apply for a Letter of Marque and Reprisal. These have not been issued since the war of 1812. They are issued to anyone who is willing to become a "legal pirate" , against a named enemy of the state.

It was used as a way to create added pressure on the seas against our enemies by using the profit motive, as the "pirates" got to keep the captured goods and ship.

I would assume that you could apply for a letter of marque to the State Department. But I wouldn't hold my breath.
