American Drone Strike Policy Discussion

[NYC Rebel]

obviously it's always been status quo. Are you outraged now because they are telling to about the killings?

Would you rather American citizens, or anybody for that matter, be targeted without us knowing anything? Would you rather us just bomb those people like we've always done? Would you rather us send in troops to try to arrest these people while they try to kill our troops?

Like I said the outrage is misguided. If you want to rally against something rally against the status quo, not Obama. He didn't set the status quo and he's done nothing to change it.

In fact bush signed the first order saying it was ok to kill citizens deemed as threats.

It wasn't status quo to a public that was not informed.
And second, I criticized Bush for pushing that agenda.

The public applauded those killings of civil rights leaders.

ALL presidents are guilty not just bush and Obama. It's the American way.

Again, why do u keep using that bullsh1t list. The government didnt kill Malcolm X. Kinda ruined the list.

Good for the dumb ass public applauding "those killings." I"m talking about no one applauding giving the US rights to unjustly kill their own citizens.

What's the alternative. Do you think we can just waltz onto terrorist compounds and arrest people peacfuly?

we're talking about targeting americans on american soil. and as far as assassinating americans abroad, we shouldnt be commiting "acts of war" in countries we're not at war with.

Again it's the American way. Turn your outrage toward the status quo, not any one single politician.

youre just defending obama because he's half-black. you wouldnt be saying this shyt for bush jr.

my outrage isnt against any single politician either, i hate repubs and demos alike. i was out in the streets protesting bush. obama is doing the same shyt.

Not true. Race has nothing to do with it. In fact his skin color is what gets him a lot of criticism that he wouldn't otherwise have. You might have protested bush, but most of the American public(including myself) supported his war efforts

No, I'm not concerned with "my team winning". I'm only concerned with taking care of my family. The Last 2 elections Obama was my best choice, next time we"ll see.

You refuse to move past there possibly being other reasons beyond "terrorist compounds" for the US to use this.

The slippery slope you talked about earlier in your attempt to make me seem over the top.
