Subject: Re: SCOTUS finds immunity for offiical Pres acts
Under the USSC decision released today, I would say Obama is immune from prosecution, or at worst given the presumption of immunity. In my opinion, the targeted killing on foreign soil of those fighting against the United States in declared or undeclared acts of war is well within the circle of immune official acts per this ruling. Such killings also run the risk of collateral damage, including the deaths of innocents. That collateral damage should be minimized, but the risks of collateral damage don't have to be completely eliminated. That the son was killed separately from the father doesn't seem to change anything.
Precisely.
You can't order the US military to kill anyone. It needs to be connected to acts of war against the US. Killing a person such as a political enemy on the streets of the US is outside of the official acts of the President, and outside of the scope of the military.
Also correct 100%.
