I’m trying to remember..wasn’t there some other outfit that used to arbitrarily kill suspects without due process? | |||

Yeah, come to think of it, the Americans have a long and bloody history of taking what doesn’t belong to them and messing in other nations affairs while trying to convince themselves they’re the ‘good guys’. Christians, who’ve never opened a Bible. Humanitarians, who get rich selling death and destruction. Revelling in their ‘Freedom and Liberty’ while simultaneously installing a dictator. Something has rolled inverted in the logic and reason of this world. | |||

We're not trying to settle the west or the Nueces Strip. We're killing people thousands of miles away without due process. Who, by the way, are not carrying fentanyl to the United States as alleged by your idiot leader. It's cocaine bound for the West Indies. I'm sure some of it makes its way to the US. Would you be in favor of summary executions here in the United States for all drug users? I mean, why not? They're breaking the law, right? Just have the cops shoot the kid who gets pulled over and is smoking a joint. Save the time and trouble of an arrest and a trial. Idiot. | |||

Probably 1/3 to 1/2 the members of this forum do or have done some form of recreational drugs, mostly pot. And every one of them lies about it when filling out forms to buy a gun. | |||

I still ask, if they are innocent, why do they not stop when ordered, or a warning shot is fired? I have said. If a drunk or impaired driver will not pull over when ordered, I think deadly force should be used on them too. Someone else should not die from their breaking the law. | |||

So why do we release the survivors with no charges? Guilty enough to be killed without a trail but not guilty enough for court if you survive? Sure seems odd to me. | |||

Kind of hard to produce the evidence when you blow it up… that and what jurisdiction does the U.S. court have in international waters? I don’t disagree that we shouldn’t be doing this though. If we can produce video that we demanded they heave to and warned them, that’s a thing that would make me feel better about it. | |||

I’m not sure this any hill to die on. These drug smugglers pose a direct threat to the wellbeing of US citizens and should be shown no mercy. I didn’t see any due process in the escalation of drone strikes during the Obama administration. Also didn’t see any dissension here on the ARPF regarding said drone strikes. Throughout history, pirate ships and smugglers have been seen as free targets by any and all territories (except those profiting of course) so I don’t see this any differently. | |||

If you have anything even approaching ‘guilt beyond a reasonable doubt’ perhaps you could provide it. Otherwise, someone could conceivably shoot you dead and be exonerated by saying “I was pretty sure he was a drug smuggler!”. There is a reason for all those laws and rules and regulations. | |||

Most everything Trump rubs me the wrong way, this topic isn't one of them. Our modern day justice system and government encourages criminals to operate in arrogance. Street thugs, petty drug dealers and predators don't fear arrest, conviction or time served. It goes right to the top. America and the rest of the world know in this day and age the right friends in office means a pardon for crimes committed, January 6th being the obvious example. I'd like to read about a 1/6 criminal getting the living shit beat out of him by a neighbor because he was pardoned. I'd like to read about neighborhood grannies randomly shooting thugs on the corner. I'd love to read about a mass grave of Cartel perps found on a farm outside of Butte MT and have the farmer shrug his shoulders in ignorance. Bring back vigilantism and keep blowing up the drug running boats. The cockroaches aren't afraid of the light anymore. | |||

To Tumbleweed: Oh fucking please… Peddle your righteousness somewhere else… Drug smuggling boats are easily identified by the intel and as mentioned above by their total refusal to acquiesce to commands to stop. I’m genuinely more interested in how blowing kilograms of fentanyl into the ocean affects marine life more than I care about the plight of drug smugglers! | |||

They were called NAZIS. Led by Adolf Hitler. Venezuela is not holding a gun to the stupid Americans heads to take drugs. EDUCATE your people. Well, we all know that does not work with stupid idiots. Who vote for career criminals! | |||

This is, & always has been, the root of the problem. All the righteous posturing will never change that simple truth. | |||

Yeah, the problem is that you either have rule of law or you don't. It either applies to everybody or it doesn't. When you have a despot like trump arbitrarily applying the law or, in this case, ignoring it, what's next Scott? How about the next liberal Democratic president confiscating your guns via Executive Order? Or outlawing hunting? Allowing the arbitrary personal preferences of the POTUS to determine what's legal and what isn't is a very slippery slope. | |||

I know it. I've thought and said for a long time that the liberties we allow our side can be used against us by the other side. I'd still like to read about grannies randomly shooting thugs. | |||

Jeff Cooper said it best. Any time drugs are confiscated they should be poisoned and put back onto the street. Poisoned to make the user sick. but not to kill. There would be a lot of users and pushers at war with each other, but that's ok. Give me a home where the buffalo roam and I'll show you a house full of buffalo shit. | |||

You two idiots are walking talking proof of why we now have the dumbest POTUS in history. Do Budweiser and Jack Daniels pose a direct threat to the well-being of US citizens? Because Budweiser and Jack Daniels and all the other alcoholic drink producers in the US kill more people in the US than drug overdoses every year. A lot more. Like 100,000 more per stats. Should we be droning that distillery in Lynchburg? | |||
