The guy publicly renounced his citizenship and was plotting attacks against the US. He was a spiritual leader for an enemy that declared war against America and killed 3000 of our people on 9-11. I don't see a slippery slope here. Better we kill al-Awalaki via drone than be forced to risk American lives trying to arrest and mirandize him in the middle of the mountains in Yemen. It's not like our law enforcement agencies have any reach there, so it's take him out from the air or let him continue engineering attacks against us.
By the way, were you a chopper pilot?
Nope, not me.
Try renouncing your citizenship and stop paying taxes. Bet it doesn’t work.
I’m afraid that I do not trust the U.S. govt and I certaintly do not trust the current administration.
