He is alleged to have been a bad person. There allegedly is evidence he was a bad person.
Nobody has seen that evidence. He was not given due process to refute any of that evidence.
If the police are 100% sure you killed children... They must arrest you and put you on trial.
They can not 'just shoot you' no matter how sure they are...because your citizenship guarantees you due process.
This incident erodes YOUR rights and quietly confers the right to kill you without any due process on anyone in the white house who claims to have secret evidence against you.
That precedent is much more dangerous than ANY terrorist will ever be...

There some vast differences here.
There is a staggering difference between arresting someone in the United States and a military force taking out a military target. In the United States we have the infrastructure to local, arrest, accuse, and bring someone to trial. In a military combat situation, there is not of this. When we have a combatant in foreign country who has taken action against the United States, there is no due process - be it an American or not.
And I have doubts that he was still an American. He pretty much declared war on the United States dozens of times and was very public about it.
This doesn't erode my rights at all. I'll never be accused of going to a foreign country and supporting the enemy.
