I’m not sure what all the legalese is about, but I have no issue with droning anyone caught working with the islamo crowd.
Of course "domestic terrorists" will be anyone that supports the constitution as written. Said constitution is quite clear about the government killing people.
The legalese is saying that, in the case of an American citizen taking up arms with terrorists, they are still given the protections of the Constitution. Like it or not, that is the law and BHO has disregarded the Constitution, which should give every sane person pause.
My only issue with Judge Napolitano's argument is this:
In a capital murder case, for example, the defendant must not only be found guilty by a jury, but he also must truly be guilty.
This is a non-sequitor and impossible to substantiate. If we knew a person to be 'truly' guilty, then no jury would be necessary. A jury analyzes the evidence as presented and makes a decision based upon the facts and their merit. The premise contradicts the mechanics as we cannot view the actions as if we were on the scene at the time.
And that my friend is the basis for governmental tyranny, “he who trades liberty for security deserves neither liberty nor security” Franklin
I’ve always believed that ANY of our American Presidents, in their role as our Commander in Chief, can and should have the power to slay the blood enemies of this country. If Islamic radical baby killers and woman whippers and legal rapists in foreign lands do not fit that bill then no one does which means our country is defenseless against these kind of killers.
THIS IS WHAT WE ELECT A PRESIDENT FOR, to make these kind of decisions. As much as I loath Obama and his cabal of associates, I agree with this drone program killing killers over seas.
If he can do it to them, he can do it to us. This type of power in the hands of the executive branch led by a crypto-marxist is for more dangerous than Islamic terrorists.
I would not trust this type of power for any president be he far left, far right or middle.
