Just want to point out that going to Suriname is going the wrong direction if you are trying to reach the USA. Also even IF the boat had drugs and IF it was destined for the USA, it seems like this would be a job for a coast guard vessel to intercept and arrest the smugglers. Just executing random people in the ocean because they might be smugglers is murder.

This might be obvious to you dear reader but I feel like we need to say these things loudly and often.

I mean it’s not nescessarily bullshit. FaceTime is end to end encrypted if I recall correctly so it could be used for anything. But this is completely ludicrous for other reasons. If the terrorists start passing notes do you ban pencil and paper?

You reminded me of this wisdom from Gandalf:

Many that live deserve death. And some that die deserve life. Can you give it to them? Then do not be too eager to deal out death in judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends.
