The US Coast Guard on Friday released video of its forces shooting out the engines of a suspected smuggling boat and arresting the crew, a successful interdiction that raises fresh questions about why the Pentagon is carrying out lethal strikes on drug smugglers in the same region.

The footage, reported by Fox News, shows a Coast Guard sniper disabling a “go-fast” vessel during Operation Pacific Viper before officers board and detain those on board. The service said more than 20,000 pounds of cocaine were seized — the largest at-sea haul in over 18 years.

The mission occurred in the eastern Pacific, where a Pentagon strike earlier this week killed four suspected smugglers. The Coast Guard’s ability to stop traffickers without deadly force is fueling scrutiny over the necessity and legality of the Pentagon’s lethal operations.

    How about both/and, not either/or?


  2. by Indy! on December 6, 2025 9:00 am

    How about applying the law to everyone including your Daddy?

    The Coast Guard sehzed the 20,000 pounds of cocaine and arrested the smugglers who they can now interrogate to help them stop more smugglers.

    Hegseth's approach is more costly, less effective, and likely illegal.

    There's video of T rump saying instead of stopping them he'd rather kill them. He tops it off by saying "you know.... like DEAD!" So he's guilty too. That can be conviction #35 for the only president ever convicted of a crime.

    Well aren't y'all just precious! Bless yo everlovin' heart.

    You realize of course, that the minute these folks get into the country that's the same as their families, there will be an untimely "fire at that house which kills the entire family. Slowly, kids first, husband last. And the "funny" thing? The doors are locked from the outside because "they" lost 20,000 lbs (9071+kg) of cocaine HCL. Market value is ~$25-$35,000 per kg. That's roughly $272 MIL these guys stole from the cartels (that's the cartel's view). And all y'all actually believe they'll be alive three days after they get home? Yeah. it's the proper and legal way to stop drug smuggling operations🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣. I think I'd rather be shot and take 45 seconds to live, than dying slowly and burn to death. Or to be cheaphanged (meaning they don't snap your neck, so you strangle to death slowly).

    OD! You sound like a true Trumper. Murdering people on suspicion is a crime. Doing it in international waters is a worse crime. It is a violation of international law even without the killing. It is a war crime since it targets civilians from a certain country.

    A country, by the way, that Trump wants to control in order to seize its vast oil reserves.


  7. by oldedude on December 7, 2025 2:21 pm
    You didn't actually read my post, did you...
    My point was that these guys lost $270 MILLION for the cartels. THE CARTELS will murder them. Please reread the post. And bless you're peapickin' heart.

    So? Don't you want them dead?

    As is often the case, OD's post is vaguely correct, but woefully incomplete.

    The people actually driving these boats may or may not automatically be killed if/when they return home. Cartels are businesses first, and killing every runner who loses his shipment (especially experienced ones) isn't good for business. These runners fates will be decided by several variables centered around WHY the cartel bosses believe the shipment was captured and what transpired during the capture. Did the runners dump the load and take the prescribed evasive maneuvers? Did they destroy equipment as instructed? Was the intel compromised? Was there corruption or blatant incompetent mismanagement involved? After capture, did the runners snitch?

    Violence usually falls on the incompetnet and disloyal, not the unlucky.

    (Also, the mid-level cartel managers are in just as much, if not more, danger than the runners.)

    You can't buy a fucking clue about how the cartels work. We had a CI working with DEA. The guy ghosted us on a friday, and parts of his body in a couple of dozen dumpsters around the city.

    Drug cartels resort to cannibalism as a terrifying tactic to maintain control and instill fear, using it for initiation, psychological warfare, and enforcing loyalty.
    The gruesome practice of cannibalism within drug cartels has historical and cultural influences, psychological impacts on members, and global implications, requiring international cooperation and public awareness to combat.

    My suggestion is that you don't use wiki for an absolute citation, without citing it. That tells me you're cutting and pasting the original, claiming it as your own (to make you feel better about yourself), and using someone else's thoughts as your own.

    Second thing. This is no big "secret" at all. When I was teaching narcs, we didn't even go into this, because they all knew about it, and had better stories than we had. Especially the one's finding Santa Muerda shrines with hair, or meat in them [4], video.

    You can't buy a fucking clue what "incomplete", "may or may not",
    and "several variables" means. You get too much of your info from True Crime TV and you think every post that includes your name is a condemnation of you being entirely utterly wrong about everything.


  12. by Indy! on December 7, 2025 6:23 pm

    Well, to be fair Navy - he usually is completely wrong about everything. 😌

    Here's the thing assholes, I actually CITED my REFERENCES. So instead of these being from fucking "true Crime TV," this is out of real fucking life, concha has admitted these are his "friends" and "good guys.

    farsante is too much of a snowflake to admit that evil actually exists. Dude, the world smells shitty to you. All you have to do is to pull your head out of your arse. Welcome to the real world you two snowflakes.

    farsante, again, the "reason" that I didn't include you on having a security clearance, is that I still doubt you got past basic training, and you were booted on a dishonorable discharge for sexuality assaulting another sailor. You get off on "schooling" women, and when they don't comply with your sick shit, you'll take it forcibly. You were soo fucking proud of "schooling" your "friend" and "straightening her out."

    And I find it funny that both of you are those racist assholes that "if it ain't english, it ain't 'merican. Go to Norway and enlist in the Neo Nazis.

    OD,

    " You get off on "schooling" women, and when they don't comply with your sick shit, you'll take it forcibly. You were soo fucking proud of "schooling" your "friend" and "straightening her out."

    Where did you get this from?


  16. by oldedude on December 7, 2025 7:48 pm
    YOU. Simple as that. You were talking to a Woman you claimed was a "friend of yours" and you were proud of how you demeaned her about her political views. I'm shocked she would ever take your phone calls. The fact that you were "proud" of demeaning another human being is repulsive to me. Disagreeing is one thing. Stomping her into the ground and beingg proud of it is another. Grow the fuck up.
