Earlier this morning, on President Trump's orders, I directed a lethal, kinetic strike on a narco-trafficking vessel affiliated with Designated Terrorist Organizations in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility.

Four male narco-terrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike, and no U.S. forces were harmed in the operation. The strike was conducted in international waters just off the coast of Venezuela while the vessel was transporting substantial amounts of narcotics - headed to America to poison our people.

Our intelligence, without a doubt, confirmed that this vessel was trafficking narcotics, the people onboard were narco-terrorists, and they were operating on a known narco-trafficking transit route. These strikes will continue until the attacks on the American people are over!!!!

That sucks, never good when one of the big outboard makers goes under. The less competition, the worse the market gets.

I get an old 1997. 90 hp mercury on the back of my 17 foot center console. It’s a two stroke or I need to mix the gas on it myself. The thing has never failed me not once after hundreds of hours.

I’m thinking that drug boat crew positions are going to go unfilled as the ones that are somewhat smart will seek other career choices.

"Why are we so worried about Americans that don’t have sufficient self discipline to avoid drugs that they know may kill them?"

I get your point, and to a degree, agree with it. People who are educated, brought up in good families and have been told/shown the devastation caused by drugs, but choose to give in to peer pressure, or decide to do drugs as an act of defiance get little sympathy from me.

Conversely, when you have a kid that grows up in an environment that tells him drugs are just a normal part of existence, and is never shown any better, is virtually doomed to addiction.

I'm a recovering alcoholic, been sober for 21 years. While I was drinking, my loved ones and those close to me thought much like you do, that it was a choice, and that I merely didn't have the will power to avoid it. In sobriety, I realized what an incredible misunderstanding that is. The problem is that an alcoholic is possessed of an intense will power which is inclined to drink. An incarcerated criminal who smuggles fruit cocktail out of the prison dining facility in his butt crack for the express purpose of fermenting it in his cell toilet for the express purpose of getting drunk is not exhibiting weak will; to the contrary they are displaying a will to get their fix at all costs. It's not a lack of discipline, it's a misdirection of discipline.

Not to insult your experience!
“ An incarcerated criminal who smuggles fruit cocktail out of the prison dining facility in his butt crack for the express purpose of fermenting it in his cell toilet for the express purpose of getting drunk is not exhibiting weak will; to the contrary they are displaying a will to get their fix at all costs. It’s not a lack of discipline, it’s a misdirection of discipline.”

Only an idiot would do that.
That is not a misdirection!
If you are that effed up, we should give you all the booze you want, free so that your life may be short.
Your life has no meaning to me or my kind.
Sooner you are gone the better.
Jesus may love you, but I’m not the son of God.
By my Christian teachings I am required to love you,
but not to be abused by you.

Intoxicated little fish swim backwards into the mouths of larger fish, which are consumed by even larger fish until finally you get crazed killer whales attacking yachts.
