    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?

      “I have a suspicion therefore the sentence is death” has been the cornerstone of American law enforcement systems for nearly 250 years.

        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.
