I dont not trust them over my own eyes and reasoning, especially when the question concerns their superiors.Do you believe JAG?
And no previous president in our lifetime has dished out such vitriol and he is only getting worse.What planet have you been on for the last ten years? Impeachments, lawfare, assassination attempts. You are probably amazed he us still standing after all of this but no previous president in our lifetime time has endured such vitriol.
Well, let's take the drama out of it. We'll just state the facts plainly and simply:I was just exposing the flaws in your dramatic response.
Then you're fine with killing drug dealers whenever they're driving across town to deliver drugs. Heck they don't even need to be driving. They can be walking down the street according to your inane position and gunned down without warning.When perps are in the act of committing [Schedule I] drug trafficking, the perp is responsible for all casualties which occur in that satanic process.
This is where we have to make note of the separate developments of the laws of land warfare and the laws of sea warfare.Well, let's take the drama out of it. We'll just state the facts plainly and simply:
The two men we're talking about weren't in a boat.
The two men were floundering around in the water.
They were hanging on to a wrecked boat.
They did that for an hour.
People at a distance watched them do that for an hour.
Someone then decided to kill them.
Is that undramatic enough for you? Does that make it any easier for you to support it? Hey, I know...let's change the environment. But the same principles. The same moral position.
The two men we're talking about weren't in a truck.
The two men were crawling around on the road.
Next to a wrecked truck.
They did that for an hour.
People at a distance watched them do that for an hour.
Someone then decided to kill them.
If the first scenario is ok with you then the second should be as well.
Well, lucky you. You're actually on a Christian site, so someone may be along shortly to help you with that.So please forgive me sir, as I work hard locating my compassion like you have for the perps. So far, I've been unsuccessful in my search.
'Sir, direct it. Mission accomplished'.Apparently now calling for help when shipwrecked and floating in cold water is a hostile action.
I appreciate that. Obviously there is a difference. Which I'm highlighting. Because we've now got to the point where people are saying that people dealing in drugs should be summarily killed. And survivors of any action executed. Period. If that's the case then why differentiate between them being on a boat off Venezuela or in the harbour at Boston, in a truck driving I90 or walking across town?This is where we have to make note of the separate developments of the laws of land warfare and the laws of sea warfare.
Let me understand this. The JAG officer said the very example of what is illegal as used in the military code training, is not illegal.Which honey bunny - is not what the JAG officer said, nor the Navel Commander, nor the Secretary of War nor Admiral Bailey - head of the joint Special Operations Command.
Thanks for the link providing the information from the head of Joint Special Operations Command - the person who would know the most of what is and is not legal.
Rumer has it - he knows even more than posters on an internet forum!
If that were true, the Navy would have just blown up the second vessel to ensure complete safety.My understanding is that the survivors were trying to access another vessel. But as in any military or police operation, munitions firing is carried out to ensure complete safety. I.e. it's not a quota of shots & you're done.
That sounds like a line said by a city slicker in a comedy movie.BTW - I'm not a dude - I don't work on a horse ranch
I mentioned that myself.If that were true, the Navy would have just blown up the second vessel to ensure complete safety.
The assassination attempt was by a Republican. There was no lawfare. He was convicted of fraud and found liable for assault.What planet have you been on for the last ten years? Impeachments, lawfare, assassination attempts.
Trump is a rapist and a fraud, and he brought all on himself.You are probably amazed he us still standing after all of this but no previous president in our lifetime time has endured such vitriol.
I need the most available vital info in order to fairly answer fatuous questions, sir....What exactly is the type of country you want to live in?
I read a book a few weeks ago called One Second After. It's about what happens in the US, primarily in one small town, when some unamed enemy sets off a number of Electro Magnetic Pulse weapons over the country. All electrics are fried. So next to no transport, lighting, power, comms...almost everything is dead.I need the most available vital info in order to fairly answer fatuous questions, sir.
oh yeah
btw
In that example, will your drug trafficking perp be "walking down the street" to go deliver enough Schedule 1 drugs to kill multitudes of Americans?
Yes, I agree with that premise.Those pirates, drug runners, et cetera, are considered "unprivileged belligerents." ... The law is what the law is, and this is what the law is:
Terrorists are classified as "unprivileged belligerents." I quoted what the law says about how they should be handled. The only difference is that they may be bound for trial rather than held as prisoners of war.
Yes, I agree with that premise.
Can you tell me how you process that when "the law is" consisting of our Dept's of State/Treasury/Justice legally classifying those unpriviled belligerents as terrorists?
