Why do the speed boats keep coming?

The poster I replied to has been for a few days now

And of course anyone that supports his regime through their defense of his drug running

Do you support piracy?

Trump has filled his administration with unqualified minions that do his bidding without fail.
They all know there is a presidential pardon waiting for them at the end of the rainbow.

I think you’re confusing Trump for Biden

They are two peas in a pod.

Do you support piracy?

No. Do you know what piracy is?

Why do you think enforcing sanctions is piracy?

Read a bit of history. Nations would put bounties on the ships of other nations and the privateers, aka pirates, would then plunder them.

Essentially what the US is doing today expect that are filling both roles.

I like the idea of issuing Letters of Marquee.

Privateers aren’t also known as pirates

One is legal one is not

Under a Letter of Marquee, the privateer ship would terminate the voyage of the ship that was the enemy of the issuing nation, and the privateers were compensated with booty. This is not an act of piracy by the issuing nation; not at all.

What’s the bounty on the drug boats? Is that how little you think of our solders?

By now it must be common news that taking a speed boat off the tip of South America is a deadly mission. Yet they continue to try. What could drive people to that point where they're going out on an adventure that has a better than even chance of ending up in death? Extreme poverty perhaps?

If these were just fishermen I think they would probably find another place to go fishing. No there has to be more to it for a group of people like this who are willing to stare death in the face and sometimes come out on the losing end.

The left are claiming these are all just fishermen and recreational boaters, so I guess they just really, really want to fish and play with their boats. And they're willing to risk death for it. That makes sense, right?

I always carry loaded pallets and drums of material in my boat when making a run to the blue water for some offshore fishing.

It's probably just bait, right?

Or, or, maybe it's extra water in case they find a group of nuns or blind children on an outing who got stuck out there. Yeah, that's it!

I myself would be willing to die for a good piece of haddock fresh caught! Um ....no

You need to come into the 21st century. You don't have a clue.

I do love halibut especially from the oven....
It's one of the few fish you can bake without drying out

Norm is one of those guys who believes that a police officer doesn't have a right to draw his gun until after he's been shot dead.
