    Just as good as blindly going along with what your government tells you is right and wrong. I hope that nobody on this boards wedding happens to go awry, but if it does, please quote the above so i can have a smug smile on my face. Thanking you in advance.
    nice..

    So we disagree.

    I'm sure the hundreds of thousands of "collateral damaged" in Iraq and Afghanistan wouldn't.

    Probably not.

    What? You would have a smug smile on your face if someone on this board was killed by a drone strike?!?!

    You may want to rethink what you just typed.

    Why? It would be a hapless mistake as you were not the intended target, just somebody who got in the way of a strike. Be sure to quote your buddy before you say I'd smile if somebody on this board died. It is the quote that you have to swallow! It is the quote that is the amusing part. See you and your buddy would have to accept the fact that: A: they missed and got the wedding party. B: that they didn't care because what are you really going to do about it. C: realise that when they do something about it, you can't hide from the fact your government has a lot to do with it.

    Maybe they thought your president was in Boston and... j u s t m i s s e d t h e i r t a r g e t. OOOPS!

    Who is my buddy? You have posted some bizarre things in the last few week but this one - that you would smile smugly if someone here was killed - really takes the cake.

    Good god...

    I had a friend who was given a dildo as a gag birthday gift and it would happily wiggle away on the kitchen table at every party for everybody's amusement. It was never stuck into any bodily cavities. Doesn't mean anything.

    There is no excuse for targeting civilians, ANYWHERE. That includes drone strikes in Pakistan just to get one guy.

    No one wants to see civilians killed but unfortunately we're dealing with cowards who use them as shields to protect themselves. If we locate a terrorist who is hiding out with his family should we do nothing?

    Would you rather we send a seal team in and risk the lives of American soldiers to take out these terrorists when a air/drone strike will do the same thing albeit with the possibility of collateral damages of the people that choose to shelter them?
    seal team sounds kinda fun.

    let's use those a lot

    to me, intent doesn't matter.

    Well that is strange, all I ever hear is how intent does matter. It matters if someone kills another person because of the color of their skin, becomes a hate crime. I also thought there are things such as involuntary manslaughter, etc. Intent doesn't matter? News to me.

    Up until a week ago, they must have thought the prez was hiding in crowded bazaars spread throughout the Middle East for the last decade.

    Yes. Because that is what SEAL teams are for. Every time we blow up a building and kill 10 innocent people including women and children we create more terrorists. We perpetuate the image that we are evil. Our enemies use it to recruit.


    Exactly. That's what the CIA terms as "blowback".

    of course in the contexts you mention, of course you are correct. if you aren't sure what I meant by that, then let me explain: people here are trying to paint people who intend on causing mass havoc and killing on US soil as evil. Those same people say because we try to get rid of "evil" people, killing good people in the crossfire, that the US deserves a free pass for that. I disagree. If you can't fight on a battlefield, you don't fight at all. You don't bomb a residential fucking area and kill a hundred civilians to get 3 targets.

    both sides, in those examples, in my opinion, are terrorists.

    I am sure he thought of it as another way to stick it America. I am waiting for Republican Congresspeople to use this as political fodder to get rid of welfare or public assistance or whatever you call it. Its coming.

    I was thinking the same thing - you know he got a hard on knowing he was being funded by the people of America to be here in the first place, and then turning around and doing what he did.

    I feel bad for his wife and daughter, assuming she didnt know about it. I wouldnt be surprised if she didnt. From all accounts he was a MAJOR FUCKING ASSHOLE to everybody including women in his life. Apparently admitted to hitting a former girlfriend. The poor daughter. How do you think she will be treated through out life?

    ive read the charges against...ive seen the video of them walking with backpacks, ive seen the images of them near the bomb blast....is there a video of them dropping the backpacks on the ground as referenced in the charges? i havent seen that. are there images of them without the backpacks after the blasts? i havent seen those. one website claims that one image shows one of them with the backpack on after the explosion but they didnt provide a link or the photo, so i havent seen that either.
    no conspiracies, im just asking because i cannot find any of it online...has anyone else?

    thats the mistake here...we do internet court..
    so if i post a video of them doing it or not doing is legit??a photo with backpack and one with not??
    if its photoshop??i
    thats why there are courts,justice,judges laywers,police,DA,fbi,analyst..
    they will give all evidence to the trial,to prove or not to prove the case..
    i dont understand why the authorities need to give the evidence in public..
    only the jury need to convince ..the rest of us we can say or believe whatever we want..it doesnt matter
    so if someone post videos at yoputube,or at the forum,if post webpages with photos with backpacks or no backpacks and put red circles on them..you know what proves??
    nothing..
    you know who will see them at court??
    no one..
    you know how matters if u believe it or not??
    no matters at all

    And we will. That is what the courts are for. The last thing any of us want is the prosecution tipping their hand now. I want him tried and convicted.
