The US military says it has carried out strikes on three boats it has accused of trafficking drugs in the Pacific Ocean, killing eight people.
The US Southern Command posted footage of the strikes on social media and said the vessels were “transiting along known narco-trafficking routes… and were engaged in narco-trafficking”.
More than 20 vessels in the Pacific and the Caribbean have been targeted in recent months, killing at least 90 people, as part of President Donald Trump’s escalating campaign against gangs he accuses of transporting drugs in the region.
Why even have police chases? Just drone strike the car and be done with it. Same solution for everything. Suspected drug dealer? Drone strike their house. Gas station getting robbed? Drone strike it. Gotta be sure any potential suspects are dead. Traffic violation? Drone strike. Speeding? Drone strike. Why even bother having cops? Don’t need em. All you need is drone strikes.
This reminds me of a Bush-era Robot Chicken bit where literally everything amounted to material support for “terrorism”.
