Even the Georgians and Victorians, those infamously brutal eras with too much of a penchant for capital punishment, didn’t execute smugglers without a trial, and mostly didn’t execute with one. (Transportation or impressment was more common.)

It honestly doesn't even matter if it was cocaine in that boat.
Smuggling isn't a crime with an automatic death sentence.

NGL: I don’t even believe the assertion it was cocaine in that boat. Those images aren’t that clear.

Let’s be CRYSTAL CLEAR:
If a man born Chet Williams became Chet Anderson when his stepfather adopted him as a toddler, and Samuel Anderson as a young adult because he didn’t want to be named after the man who abandoned him, his name on that wall would be Samuel Anderson.
There’d be no question.

The Supreme Court paved the way for a felon to return to the presidency — where, behind the shield of office, that felon has ordered a string of murders.
The boat was split in half. 9 men were dead. 2 more clung to a floating piece of wreckage and tried desperately to flip it over for 41 minutes straight. There was no possible way they were going anywhere.
Then they were killed in cold blood by the U.S. military.

The USPS posting a NINE BILLION DOLLAR LOSS!!! sounds terrible. Certainly worse than if you said "USPS costs thirty dollars per person per year" even though that means the same thing and more accurately describes a government service
