war is extrajudicial
- harimau777 11mo agoAmerica isn't at war.
- gruez 11mo agoNot even the "war" on drugs or "war" on terror? Semantic games aside, the precedent for the president engaging in military action without congress declaring war was broken decades before Trump.
- ziml77 11mo agoSo? We hated it then and we hate it now.
- wormius 11mo agoI love me a good Tu Quoque defense. Keep em coming! I can't remember if we supported him cuz he wasn't the war candidate or we supported him cuz he was or if it even matters and we just make up bullshit excuses for what suits us at the time with whatever is convenient for the given argument...
- hulitu 11mo agoThey surely need circus for the plebeians. /s
- ta9000 11mo agoTell that to the thousands of parents that lose a kid each year. This trash has to stop making it into the US.
- henry2023 11mo agoEveryone talks about stopping drugs entering the border but no one talks about dismantling the extremely efficient logistic network that makes those drugs available in every corner of each major city. I guess it’s easier to blow up random boats in the pacific than prosecuting corrupt officials but is it effective?
- ta9000 11mo agoWhy not do both?
- wilg 11mo agoBecause it's un-American and murder to kill criminal suspects instead of trying them in a court of law.
- simianparrot 11mo agoI would say it's as American as it gets, and in this case justified as well. Do you not know America's history..? Even recent one? Obama ordered drone strikes in foreign countries as well.
- wilg 10mo agoWe know it’s not justified because they aren’t enemy combatants.
- Saline9515 11mo agoWhat is the difference between this and sending hellfire missiles on Afghanis based on cell phone data, during the Obama administration?
- wilg 10mo agoOne is illegal.
- wilg 11mo agoLosing a kid doesn't mean America is at war?
- n8henrie 11mo agoTo cocaine? By "lose a kid" I assume you mean death and not some euphemism for addiction.
