I think if you read it as "campaign meant for drug boats," it isn't editorialized. The actual boats struck are alleged drug boats indeed; the stated desire was to only hit actual "drug boats."
At any rate, even if all the boats struck were carrying drugs in violation of American law, murdering the crew is still not an acceptable form of punishment.
- BugsJustFindMe 4mo agoIf the desire were in any way to hit only actual drug boats then the boats would receive due process instead of murder. It is definitionally a campaign meant for alleged drug boats. > even if all the boats struck were carrying drugs in violation of American law, murdering the crew is still not an acceptable form of punishment. Agreed.

And we've seen a very good decrease in fentanyl deaths -- though that could also be attributed to the higher availability of Narcan. Fentanyl remains a primary driver of overdose deaths, with synthetic opioids, primarily fentanyl, accounting for 60% of all overdose deaths in the United States last year, totaling about 48,000 people. While opioid overdose deaths remain high, there has been a decrease in fentanyl-involved deaths from 2023 to 2024. More National Fentanyl Overdose Data The CDC reports a 35.6% decrease in synthetic opioid overdose deaths from 2023 to 2024.
- Arodex 4mo ago>Fentanyl remains a primary driver of overdose deaths You missed a few steps here: fentanyl isn't injecting itself magically into drug users when it arrives in the USA. >we've seen a very good decrease in fentanyl deaths -- though that could also be attributed to the higher availability of Narcan. And also just the fact there are less and less fentanyl drug users still alive. BTW, what happened to the members of the Sackler family?
