Bullshit - due process still applied. He was a jihadi scumbag, but he was a propagandist. He wasn’t a trigger puller. Regardless of how you may feel about him or what you think his status may be…he still had due process rights as an American citizen.
I guess you just don’t give af about the Constitution when it’s convenient.
I think you meant to say…that action was taken before the courts could rule on it. You are correct. That doesn’t make it any less illegal. That’s like me breaking the law and saying…well the court had not yet ruled on me breaking a law when I broke it so it wasn’t illegal.
Anyway I like where you’re going with this as you defend drone-king Obama. Based on what you’re saying Trump could just start taking out all of these caravans of people before they hit the border. As long as he doesn’t ask the courts I guess it’s not illegal.
No, he was an enemy combatant on foreign soil and thus a legitimate military target.
The US was at war with AQ and he was not only a member but a prominent leader in recruiting and training terrorists.
He could have been arrested and brought to the US perfectly lawfully but he could also be droned perfectly lawfully.
Again, the administration was never taken to court over his killing so it has nothing to do with this discussion so let’s not derail it any further.
That is not only a lie it would be war crime. We are not at war with the caravans or any of the countries they are coming from.
It would also be an act of war against whatever nation they were in at the time of the attack.
Complete bullshit.
If Trump were to take such actions not only would we be at war unnecessarily he would immediately be impeached, removed from office, tried, and convicted of mass murder.
Nope. He was an American citizen and still had due process rights. A court never ruled him to be an enemy combatant. His citizenship wasn’t revoked either.
No court ruling to such an effect was needed. He was killed while engaged in making war against the US on Foreign Soil.
Now let’s stop derailing this thread.
Those people are invading o̶u̶r̶ ̶̶c̶o̶u̶n̶t̶r̶y̶ my country. We don’t know who they are or what their intent is. We have every right to stop them and we should. Countries that receive financial assistance from us that aren’t helping us to stop them are complicit. As soon as they step foot on US soil there should be shoot to kill orders.
You are insane and no commander in the field or NCO would ever give such a command.
It is a crime under the UCMJ to follow an illegal order. To follow it would make them murders and war criminals.
They are illegal aliens and people seeking asylum and the second they set food on US soil are entitled to the full protections of the US constitution and there are endless court rulings to that effect spanning the last forty or fifty years.
So the president of the United States has to follow a law that’s causing the destruction of the United States 
Like I said it’s old thinking like yours that is destroying this country. You are a part of the problem not the solution.
I think we should start shipping them to Israel. What about you Rabbi? I think Israel should have open borders and benefit from the multiculturalism and diversity that you want America to be saddled with.
You’re bitching because Obama lawfully killed an enemy combatant while bitching that Trump will not issue orders to murder innocent civilians.
You are insane.
For troops to follow such an order would make them murderers and war criminals.
Nice catch there. I’m glad you detected his blatant anti-Americanism. There’s no doubt why he’s such a big Trump supporter. He is a part of the MIGA coalition. He doesn’t give a fuck about MAGA.
Neither does President Trumpelbaum.
You’re an idiot. I didn’t even vote for Trump.
The oath I took to support and defend The Constitution is not dependent on who’s in office.
I’ll support any president that adheres to it and oppose even a president I support who doesn’t.
Our country was made great by the wise men who drafted, passed, and ratified our founding documents and we will only be returned to greatness when we once again begin adhering to them.
Hey, military expert. Can you tell me when we went to war with Yemen?
Yeah, because our founders envisioned the United States being flooded by subhuman third world trash.
We didn’t. We went to war in Yemen at the request, and with permission of the Yemenese gov’t against AQ.
That’s exactly how the US was built. We accepted millions of immigrants from failing countries and brutal monarchies all over the world for a hundred years with no restrictions at all.
Negative. There was no war and thus there was no enemy combatant status to be declared. As much as you would like to believe that the US can fly around the world in discriminately killing citizens it doesn’t like…that’s generally not the case. You go on and keep defending your boy Obama though. It looks good on you.
That’s pure BS. We’ve been at war with AQ since 9-11 under the authority granted by congress when they passed the AUMF and subsequently kept reauthorizing it.
I didn’t vote for Obama either dumbass.
You are a clown bro. The US was founded by white Christian men for white Christian men. No one believes your multiculturalism degenerate nonsense was in play back in the 1700s. There was certainly a pecking order among the white Europeans who would come here but the founders were pretty clear on what they believe should be appropriate immigration controls.
