The first fight on illegal drugs I can remember was Nancy and her, “just say no’ slogan.
Since then, the drug trade has escalated to killing thousands of Americans. “In 2023, fentanyl was responsible for about 199 deaths every day. Over a quarter of a million Americans have died from fentanyl overdoses since 2021.”
https://usafacts.org/articles/are-fentanyl-overdos...President Trump is the first President I am aware of who is really serious in ridding our Country of illegal drugs and drug runners by conducting military operations and force.
President Trump has declared an actual war on drugs, mincing no words and action to that fact.
Yet you and the rest of the TDS left cry and moan over the loss of one fisherman’s life that could
have been mistakenly killed, and at the same time hate President Trump’s efforts to save thousands of American lives by actually going to war, a real war on drugs.
In wartime mistakes happen, not intentionally, think Pat Tillman, killed by friendly fire. How many times has that happened? I suspect more than once. The overall intention still, is to win the war.
If the fishermen was innocent, compensate his wife and family, but don’t stop the war on drugs
because of one mistake. President Trump has already saved many American lives sending tons of drugs
to the ocean bed and the drug runners to hell.

That's why Dozzy Don pardoned Juan Orlando Hernández, the former president of Honduras, who was sentenced by a U.S. District judge last year to 45 years in prison for using his position to help drug traffickers import more than 400 tons of cocaine into the United States, while accepting bribes to fuel his political career and protecting violent drug cartel leaders from prosecution in return.
Hernández used his position to support one of the largest and most violent drug trafficking conspiracies in the world.

Nope.
Though drugs do make their way thru Venezuela, fentanyl/opioids are not among them. They come by other routes.
Perhaps you should know what you’re talking about before attempting to lecture on the subject? Just a suggestion.
Further, no drugs have been recovered, no “fishermen” have been captured and interrogated, and no evidence has been offered, and no authorization from congress has been sought by this administration which continues to simply blast boats in the Caribbean for your viewing pleasure.
The next stage in this monstrous charade will actually be the main goal of this little theater production- taking Venezuela and their 100 billion barrels of oil.
And you will cheer for the atrocities as you always seem to do.
In conclusion:
1. This whole thing is not about drugs. It’s about stealing the wealth of a country.
2. It’s also about normalizing Trump’s power and ability to kill whoever he damn well pleases. If he can get away with it in the Caribbean, he’ll be bringing that road show to the United States- extra-judicial killings; no indictments, no evidence, no trials, no appeals- just death to whomever he calls an enemy.
And as you have for every single one of his atrocities up to this point, you will most likely cheer for that one as well.
And Trump will have done little to halt the flood of drugs into this country.
But you won’t want to talk about that.

I saw it sometime in the 80s, must have rented it on VHS. The thing I noticed about that trailer was it made Hayes out to be some sort of hero. He not only was so terminally stupid as to try an amateurish attempt at smuggling, iirc, he murdered one of the guards in the prison, before escaping in a stolen guard uniform. The Wiki article on Hayes says he was sentenced to 4 years, in 70, then sentenced to life in 73. The life sentence was commuted to 30 years in 75. As the TV advert, probably produced before much of anyone knew or cared about Hayes said, "when you're busted for drugs over there, you're in for the hassle of your life". Of course, that was 50 years ago. Interesting, isn't it, that some northern European countries have, by USian standards, lax drug laws, yet have a lower rate of drug use than the US, with it's puritanical approach.

It never seemed to work out that way for many, however- mostly because a young and innocent drug dealer, just starting out, tends to radically underestimate the amount of his supply he will be consuming, and how that consumption will affect his ability to conduct “business”.

The drugs don't even have to be headed to the US.
"The Trump Administration’s justification for striking a boat in the Caribbean in early September, killing all 11 people on board, was that it was carrying a cargo of potentially deadly drugs that was headed to the United States.
But that justification appears to have been undermined by a briefing from the commander of that operation before lawmakers on Thursday, who reportedly said the boat in question was heading to the coast of Suriname, where it was planning to transfer its drugs to a larger vessel.
The revelation contradicts the Administration's claims that the boat was on its way to the United States and means that the U.S. was likely not even the final destination for its alleged shipment. The U.S. government’s own intelligence has said previously that the majority of drug trafficking routes that go via Suriname head on to Europe."
