Would America (and you) still cheer if the assassinated American terrorist looked like this?

[tblue]

Just sayin'.

1. Again, the main question would be....

"Did this happen under a Democrat or a Republican president?"

That's not the question that matters to me personally (I don't cheer assasinations, no matter what). But here on DU there's a sizable contingent of people for whom the question that I asked above would be the determining factor as to whether they support the action or not.

[tblue]

3. I know. And it is appalling.

Everything is warped. There are no longer any principles that are nonnegotiable. Not even in this party.

21. True, there seems to be an IOKIYAD ethic at work here.

It doesn't work for me any better than the IOKIYAR ethic.

[bvar22]

23. Yep.

How many here supported the concept of the Unitary Executive when Bush-the-Lesser was president?


You will know them by their WORKS,
not by their excuses.

Solidarity!

[pintobean]

5. Are you accusing those that disagree with you of being racist?

Sexist? What's your point?

[chelsea0011]

6. I she looking to kill me and my family?

[quinnox]

8. I don't care what a terrorist looks like

If they are plotting to kill people then I have no sympathy for what justice may come their way. And that includes if they are a cute blonde, >rolls eyes>

[2banon]

26. Justice is meted out via court, requiring evidence

not assassination with invented fairy tales to fit the "justification"

[Strelnikov_]

9. Hitler Barbie? n/t

12. Thank you for being humane.

This party is full of bloodthirsty hypocrites, who worship the party no matter the injustice. They are no better than those plagued with the blind faith of the religious in our society. They are dangerous and threaten the possibility of any real change.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

29. Even more than that, people who are motivated either by a primitive revenge ethos or

a scaredy-cat "safety at any price" attitude.

In effect, they're saying, "If someone in authority THINKS that this person is a threat, then I will applaud this person's assassination."

[Drew Richards]

13. oh come on...no response necessary ...what does it matter what they look like

[Stevenmarc]

14. New meaning to blond bombshell

[Zax2me]

19. Did she murder innocent people?! Just sayin'....

Ridiculous.

[PragmaticLiberal]

20. I can't speak for "America"...

but as for me the answer is a resounding "Yes".

[dembotoz]

22. what if some foreign power took out dick cheney

there is some reason to blame him for war crimes

what is someone beat us to it.

[thelordofhell]

25. I'd send them a thank you card

After all, it is Dick Cheney. He should be dead already.

[treestar]

28. I bet the same people on DU who don't like Obama killing

Awaki would be cheering that one on!

[Fire Walk With Me]

24. She's a terroriss! Ah'm turnin' her in!

[Ikonoklast]

27. Yep. Next question.

[exelwood]

31. I can't believe anyone is supporting this murder...

If Bush had assassinated Michael Moore as a subversive terrorist what would have been your reaction? The case could be made under that administration's view that Moore is indeed a subversive terrorist. Would it be OK to dispense with those pesky laws and drop a drone on his ass in that case? Hell no!

Careful people, this way lies madness.
