It is illegal to drone strike anyone who is only suspected of a crime. Especially in international or Venezuelan waters. Drug smuggling is not a crime that carries the death sentence in the US either.

Unjustifiably murdering everybody on the boat with one shot is just fine, but having to use two is going too far for these senators or what??? America is clearly never going to recover it's reputation ^(citation needed)^ or influence after this administration. Perhaps it's best for countries that were dependant on the U.S. for certain purposes to cut ties with such a deranged country and band together to soften the blow. You don't need the liability.

It flew near the edge of the atmosphere and was so fast that when it was finally picked up at that range by the less advanced radars of the time it would already have been out of the range of missiles. Things had cameras on board that were apparently capable of getting a good shot of a license plate from damn near the edge of space (in the 70's!). I have read there were plans for a bomber version but apparently that didn't come to be. It's a shame none are still flying. NASA had a few they obtained and used for upper atmospheric research after the airforce and CIA were done with them, but flying and maintaining them is crazy specialized and expensive. The older U2 spyplanes were made for similar altitudes and found to be a much cheaper and more practical option for that purpose so the SR-71's were retired.

Weird sticker. Anyways, I've always hated that type of urinal. All they do is blow piss everywhere.

Looks like it was edited to be a bit bigger than normal.

Very eclectic.

Yeah Emus, ostriches and cassowaries are not to be fucked with. And think about how strong and feisty even a small monitor lizard is and people just don't know how screwed they most assuredly would be.

Saturday Night Special was an anti-gun song, so I find them to be quite the mixed bag.

I do enjoy me some Dogbert antics but damn, one would think a guy who appears to understand the suffering under capitalism wouldn't be so conservative and assholish. Baffling really.

no mention of what the punishment is for trying to ignore that law, so I'm going to assume it has no teeth whatsoever. :/
