One thing east asia gets right is how to tackle drug issues

[/quote]

Oh yeah—extra-judicial executions??

Have you ever heard of due process?

WTH is wrong with you people? [/quote]

International waters.[/quote]

International Law, should then be in effect, which Trump and the US Navy broke.[/quote]

46 U.S. Code Subtitle VII Chapter 705 - MARITIME DRUG LAW ENFORCEMENT

--declares US has jurisdiction over non-flagged vessels in international waters and possessing drugs (or manufacturing, etc) on such vessels is prohibited
__AND states:
(b)Venue.—A person violating section 70503 or 70508—
(1)[b]shall be tried[/b] in the district in which such offense was committed; or
(2)if the offense was begun or committed upon the high seas, or elsewhere outside the jurisdiction of any particular State or district, may be tried in any district.

Nothing about summary executions

LOL

Democrats would like them tried in front of a Rhode Island District Court judge where they can be found not guilty over a trial several years later, countersue and be given a 7 figure monetary settlement.

Yeah, F that noise.   Kill them on the sea, do it publicly, and broadcast it for the world to see so others will think twice.[/quote]

Which is illegal. [/quote]

That's right. A former president of the Philippines, Duterte, is currently before the International Criminal Court in The Hague for the extrajudicial killings of 6,000-0,000 people he endorsed as part of his "war on drugs." If Trump keeps this up, he may find himself before the ICC one day as well. [/quote]

No, we withdrew from the ICC under Bush to protect soldiers from international jurisdiction for war crimes committed in the middle east.  We are also not signatory to whatever the international law is that governs the seas, although historically we act as if we are. [/quote]
