I am good with that. How are you going to change laws, replace liberal judges and corrupt DA’s? Remember where the money comes from to fund these DA’s and judges elections? It runs full circle. Where is the head of the snake Roger?

It definitely would take some time. Nothing works as it should in this country when government is involved.
I dont like incarcerating users, but honestly its the only thing that really works to snuff out most of the drug trade.'
The other alternative is legalization.

I don't always agree with me (I have even changed my mind based on info learned on PoliBoard!).
I have mixed feelings. By predisposition, I am an isolationist...but maybe the world is too interconnected.

Well, the amount of drugs destroyed by our Dept. of War could have taken out several large U.S. cities population. So, I think it's going pretty good. Thanks for asking.

Yet its will not make a dent in the drug trade, which is supposed to be the point of interdiction.

The point of the interdiction is to save lives and it has. Even you can't argue that point.

It's not an interdiction. It's a summary execution. Just intercept the boat when it hits U.S. waters, like a civilized country would.

I’ll never understand the cheerleading for executing other human beings by executive order without a trial by jury. It’s truly baffling.
Have the Coast Guard interdict the boat. Arrest the people. Charge them with a crime and try them. It’s not hard.

That is absurd and you are completely naive
It's time for you to realize that drug cartels are transnational threats much like al-Qaeda or ISIS and need to be dealt with accordingly. Should we wait until a terrrorist threat shows up on our shores to do something about it?

Here is the thing that you miss every time. It is not just the huge amount of drugs that are caught/destroyed on the water. It is the huge amount that was flowing through our border. The amount coming in by air has been for the most part neutralized. I had an employee of mine tell me it was impossible to eradicate rats at a feed mill. I told him that is definitely true if you do not try. We have basically a rodent free mill today. I fired the employee that was not willing to give the effort to make that happen. Roger you are a prime example of the employee that I fired. I want winners not sniveling “wanta be economists” that look at everything as a glass half empty instead of half full. People like you are the reason things fail. Thank god you were not part of Washington’s army when the redcoats were coming.

No. Doubling down on failed policy is why things like this fail.

Of course, for better or worse, these extra-judicial killings are really about destabilizing Venezuela and controlling the region
If you look at all the regime changes throughout history, they have all started by bombing drug runners.
Sarcasm aside, if killing narcoterrorists destabilizes Venezuela, doesn't that tell you what they were all about?
Weak conservatives love to do nothing. Here we have a country so involved with running drugs to our country that killing a few narcoterrorists, by your own words, leads to the collapse of their entire government, and you want us to just sit here and do nothing while the problem festers.
You do nothing conservatives couldn't beat the democrats, and now Trump has the democrats at their lowest point in history. I'm going to side with the guy who produces results on this one.

Well, I suspect thats a healthy way to view things, so I certainly dont want to change your mind.
But if things dont go the way you think, might reconsider other alternatives no matter how much it pains you.

Well sure. Inspect what you expect. Hold accountable those that do not produce to your expectations.

I guess I missed the memo when drug runners were re-branded as terrorists.
