Wow! You're completely callous. Why would anyone try to minimize 100,000+ deaths a year? Maybe this will give you a better perspective:

Combine the number of US soldiers killed during our last four major wars - 1) Iraq 2) Afghanistan 3) Vietnam and 4) Korea. The combined total will still fall short of the number of your fellow Americans who died from drug overdoses in the single year of 2023.

Wow again. When's the last time you saw a "fishing boat" powered by four 600-hp outboard motors? Do you think we ought to wait until the boats are in US waters before we stop them or blow them up? If the drugs stay in the Caribbean or get smuggled on to Europe and kill people there, are the lives lost of no concern to you?

If you want to get revenge on traffickers then you should start with the Sackler family and the pharmaceutical industry first.

Spending billions of dollars to invade and change the regime in Venezuela is just the stupidity and delusion of Trump and the Trump administration.

What’s callous is the pharmaceutical industry in America that puts profits over people. The problem we have with opiates in this country started with Oxycontin and the Sackler family and the entire profit seeking behavior of our own drug companies.

Why don’t we spend our money reforming our healthcare system rather than spending our money on the military complex and starting another conflict with not even the fig leaf of a military justification.

That's not nice. MAGA is just trying to defend some war crimes here.

I suppose the next thing you'll do is...something really mean...like...point out...

THE MOTHERFUCKING HYPOCRISY OF PARDONING HONDURAN PRESIDENT HERNANDEZ AFTER BEING CONVICTED OF DRUG TRAFFICKING.

And them Sacklers are nice people! They offered to give up $2 Billion of the $13 Billion they made killing off a bunch of folks who were...let's face it....probably NOT Trump voters.

Now... let's get back to blowing these fucking boats up! Peasants making several hundred dollars to drive these fucking boats deserve whatever happens to them. "Rules of Engagement" my ass. That's for pussies! And Libs, of course.

I wasn't minimizing ANY deaths, including the uncharged civilians our military executed with no due process on only ALLEGED offenses. And, for the record, I'm not the one who lied about the number of deaths.


Yes, it's not our MILITARY's job to police anywhere, most certainly not the Caribbean waters for CIVILIAN criminal activities.

Can you show me how you know they are 600-hp? Here's a link to the most powerful outboards created and an obvious video of "running". Ignore the white people with fishing gear.
