Just a reminder, Rodrigo Duterte is currently in jail in The Hague for crimes against humanity because he was ordering the extrajudicial murder of suspected drug dealers.
There may be a little bit of a scale difference between the two, as abhorable as both situations are.
“suspected drug ship”
Dude, it either is or it isn’t and you better damn well be sure before you fuckin blow it up…
What? No even if you’re sure the ship is full of drugs you can’t just murder everyone on board.
More murder from us imperialists.
Anyone else find it odd that they continue to just blow up boats without providing evidence of narcotics on board meanwhile the single time they boarded a boat to find narcotics it turned out to be fishermen and was a huge embarrassment?
I don’t find it odd. They just blow up fishermen and refugee boats because it destroys the lack of evidence as well
Or just lie and say you blew up a boat. Bonus in the paycheck, and no one to dispute you.
Nah I think he gets off on killing people
No i mean the fuckers out there floating around looking for people to blow up. Trump probably set some insane quota not based in reality. These guys can just make shit up to make him happy.
When has “suspected” ever meant it’s ok to kill these people? Hell even if they were bringing hundreds of pounds of fentanyl directly to a kindergarten we still wouldn’t give them the death penalty for their crimes so what gives the turnip the right to murder these people in international waters?
The American people chose to give him all the power.
And continue to choose to give him power. Every minute they don’t act is another minute he takes more control.
We can’t Rambo ourselves out of this no matter how much we all wish we could. Get the action movie shit out of your head. People are acting and resisting. You aren’t going to see it on mainstream media yet. They’ve got a narrative to push.
I never mentioned Rambo fighting. You’re the one that seems to have it in your head.
I’m suggesting organizing, protesting, striking, blocking roads and shipping, cutting power, throwing a wrench into the machine in any way you can. Shut. It. Down. It’s your only way out. You have all the power. Use it.
You’d be surprised how many Americans just have no fucking clue what is happening. I have relatives that don’t know a thing, they’re just going about their days as if everything is completely normal. Until this shit starts hitting everyone personally, nothing will happen.
People aren’t posting their revolutionary activities guys. They just aren’t. Enjoy.
Do you think they gave him a button to press? Not even remotely joking.
In his first administration, the button on his desk literally summoned Diet Coke.
Probably, but it probably didn’t actually do anything they just timed it or something. Make manbaby feel special.
Suspected? Not even confirmed? Are they even trying to pretend not to just be murderers?
Well yes. They still believe in innocent until proven guilty. They aren’t monsters!
Weird way to spell extrajudicial execution
I know I’ll get downvoted, but Obama really accelerated this with the cruise missile and drone strikes during his tenure. Yes, yes, Trump is infinitely worse, but Dems handed Trump the tools instead of dismantling them when they had the opportunity.
The current situation is the result of degradation of checks and balances and increasing presidential power since the cold war kicked off. Long time in the making unfortunately.
It was wrong when Obama was doing it but Obama isn’t making the decisions right now. We gotta worry about Donald J Trump and his lackeys right now.
Meanwhile in Venezuela…
Venezuela Announces Capture of Alleged DEA Agent With Massive Drug Shipment
Ah yes cause the pot calling the kettle black is usually the trustworthy one.
Fwiw I don’t know who to believe in this one. They’re both massive liars.
Believe no one and be sad about everything lol.
This must mean that it is totally ok to blow up American boats and kill americans then?
A rich American asshole’s superyacht would be a good test subject.
It would definitely contain large amounts of drugs
Only if you can take on the US military.
Trump says
Have these killings been confirmed by any reputable sources?
You still have reputable sources left in the US?
No, obviously we’re talking about external journalistic sources.
They don’t go there cause they will be sunk and then declared drug traffickers after the fact.
Maybe these are just boats full of the missing people from Alligator Auschwitz and they’re using this as a ploy to cover it up?
They have no need to cover it up. Those people can disappear and then when they’re challenged about it (assuming any journalists with an ounce of balls are allowed to ever ask another question) they’ll just respond “They were undocumented, so they disappeared. What of it?”
