There was endless handwringing about Obama hitting that dude with a drone strike. But regardless… are you seriously going to pretend that is at all comparable to what is happening right now? A US citizen, in a foreign war zone, fighting for the enemy vs. kidnapping and trafficking US citizens from their homes in the US to a prison in El Salvador. A country they’ve never been to. C’mon bro.

You should proofread, bro. But I think I get your meaning.

It’s not for you or me to claim or “pretend” that any of these alleged crimes are comparable (unless we’re on the jury). It’s not the president’s job either, really. That’s why we have judges, juries, trials, and all that other boring “due process” shit.

Thank you for at least trying to answer the question. Even though I do secretly believe that assassination is more severe than deportation, I was genuinely asking about the difference in public response instead. I don’t recall nearly as much “handwringing” about Obama killing a kid, but that could just be because I was paying less attention to news during that time in my life.

I really don’t understand why people are upset about due proces now. The US established over 10 years ago that it’s OK to kill US citizens if they’re “terrorists”. But deportation is crossing the line?

Am I missing something on this subject? Or is it just typical political hypocrisy?
