Do you believe it is ever acceptable for a government to kill someone without a trial? The post describes people being killed at sea with no arrest, no court, and no evidence presented publicly. What do you think: should a government always have to prove someone is guilty before punishing them? Why or why not?

Do you agree that when something happens very often, people stop caring about it? The author is worried that because these killings happen so regularly, people will treat them as normal. Do you think this is true? Can you think of other examples where people have stopped reacting to something because it became "too common"?

The author calls these killings "murders." Do you think the word choice matters? The US government would probably use different words — like "neutralised" or "stopped." Do you think the words we use to describe violence change how we feel about it? Who do you think gets to decide which word is correct?

What would you say to someone who argues that bombing suspected drug boats is necessary to protect people from the harm of drugs? Some people believe the ends justify the means — that if drugs cause suffering, stopping them by any means is acceptable. Do you agree with this argument? What problems do you see with it?
