Even if they were all filled with drugs it wouldn't make these actions any better or any more acceptable don't let them control the narrative and change the goalposts.

No, even if they are carrying drugs that's not a reason to summarily execute people.

While I think this would be good, why can't they track the boat to its destination, stop both the boat and determine who is distributing it within the US.

People in the US have to be distributing it. I realize they don't typically use official ports but even if they go to a specific spot and drop the drugs in the ocean and later another ship comes by to pick it up, track each stage and make the arrest after the transfer to the next person.

Is that the same majority that voted a convicted sex offender insurrectionist with 34 felony convictions as President of the United States?

[-] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca 9 points 10 months ago

No. They aren't a majority. At best, they only make up a third of the population.

[-] Zorque@lemmy.world 2 points 10 months ago

Slightly less than a third.

He didn't even get a majority of people who actually voted for president, let alone majority of Americans. More people voted for someone who wasn't him than for him. Our election system is garbage.

Some poor fishermen when they hear a jet above.

Generation after generation continue to adore the fact that the world now only sees America through smiling corporate industrialists or predator drones.

Vote. Vote Millenial. Vote Zoomer.
