Those of you against destruction of the drug-hauling boats... question...

[mudwhistle]

Who launched em?

Shouldn't matter who launched them, idiot.

Shouldn't matter who launched them, idiot.

It shouldn't. But it does.

 

[Yarddog]

Who launched em?

Let me guess.... Israel?

 

[mudwhistle]

It shouldn't. But it does.

Not really, if you're trying to protect civilians.
We shoot down incoming missiles regardless of the source.

Not if those "missiles" are Chinese boats full of fentanyl. We ignore those. Because .... we're not trying to protect civilians. We're putting on a show for Trump's fascists.

This is where the drug boat analogy fails.
That boat was 1500 miles away from the US when they got shot down.

That would be like a missile launched out of Moscow, and heading west.

Is it heading to Ukraine? Is it heading to western europe? Or is it heading to the USA?

When it's that far away it's too early to tell.

I'm not talking about boats......unless the Chinese are launching boats into orbit.

Well.....if you know who launched the boats, it makes sense to sink them before they get to another country, dumb-ass.

 

[dblack]

I'm not talking about boats......unless the Chinese are launching boats into the sky.

Hmm.... I thought you were making a comparison between missiles and boats full of drugs. I guess not. I guess you were just hallucinating. Oh well. Good stuff?

You would think that the #1 killer of Americans from drugs comes from fentanyl.
You would think that would be our #1 concern.

So you think when Russia launches missiles against Ukraine, we should shoot down those missiles?

That would put a new twist on the Ukraine war.
We should shoot down anything launched from Russia, heading west (toward the USA).

I like it.

But I don't think Putin would be thrilled.

I'm not.
Somebody else was.

Why would we ******* shooting down missiles launched from Russia into Ukraine?

Try making sense.

 

[postman]

Why would we ******* shooting down missiles launched from Russia into Ukraine?

Try making sense.

Because using the boat analogy where the boat is still 1,500 miles from the USA.
We don't know where the boat is going, just like we don't know where Russian missiles are going that early in their flight.

So the idea of shoot first, sounds good to me.
Anything Russia fires, heading west, and we shoot it down.

I have a better idea.....sell a missile defense system to the Ukrainians and let them shoot the damned things down themselves.

When it comes to drug boats coming out of Venezuela......the only way to be sure is sink them once they get far enough away from Venezuela for it not to be considered an attack on Venezuela.

The problem with you Dems is you're selective about what laws you want to follow and which you want to enforce.

Not a Democrat. Never registered as one. Never donated. Not a any party's mailing list and blocking both in outlook, so neither shows up.

I support the Constitution, all Federal, and State laws, along with the rules of war, Geneva Convention (taught required classes on both). So, you partisans got it wrong again, as usual.

 

[White 6]

I had to go thru extensive background checks to get my TS-SCI security clearance, the highest clearance in the military. If I had any involvement in anti-American groups, or had any ties to hostile foreign or domestic groups or organizations, I never would have been granted a security clearance.

I volunteered for tough and extremely punishing, as well as hazardous, training to become an 18E Special Forces Communications SGT, and served several years on two ODA Special Forces Operational Detachment Alphas.
That's called conduct that goes above and beyond the norm of military service.

I've been on several overseas deployments, as well as three deployments to hostile fire zones.
I was involved in combat operations while deployed in hostile fire zones.

I also retired with zero negative administration actions against my record.

I think my record speaks for itself.

So, I am surprise (if that is true) you no longer believe in the Constitution, rule of law, DOD rules of armed conflict, the Second Geneva Convention (specifically dealing with protection of wounded, sick, and shipwrecked members of armed forces at sea during international armed conflicts.

What in the hell happened to you Sergeant? Did you disregard oath and all the things you used to support, when you took off the uniform, only accepting a monthly check, but retaining none of the value? That if fkn sad!

 

[White 6]

Funny, I never read you doing that when Obama was droning Americans in the ME, or droning a wedding in the ME…I guess the laws only apply to Trump, right?

You do not remember me saying that when Obama was in office, as I was not on the USMB, when Obama was in office. If you check under my picture, you will find I did not join USMB until 2019.

Fck you too.

When did "Fishermen" become armed forces?

BTW, our ROEs dictated that as long as you consider an enemy a threat to the mission's success, you continue to take them out.
My understanding is that these "Fishermen" were calling in help from other hostile units and still presented a threat to the mission.

 

[SaxonJackson]

Let's say several missiles were launched against the USA that contained drugs that could kill millions of Americans.
Would you still be against shooting down the missiles?

I'm for bombing boats that shoot missiles at us.
I'm against bombing boats that don't shoot missiles at us.
