To him any south American is a cartel member anyway.

I will never not randomly think of this dialog.

Then, if some other country targets him it's fair, right?
You might say "I don't give a shit" if they do.
Just a thought.

How very Catholic of him.
He is the average US Catholic in my opinion, and I went to 12 years of Catholic school so I've been around the block. The only part of the Gospel that they follow is being anti-choice. Oh wait that's not in their bible? (Sorry I was disillusioned by this religion at a very early age)
Former Roman Catholic here ...100 percent agree. None of them followed a word of Scripture

It's wild how judgy a lot of Catholics seem to be when the bible is pretty specific about God being the one who judges. His only mouthpiece on earth is the Pope so they should really be listening to that guy and focusing a lot more on not being a cunt as per the rest of the new testament.

I wouldn't call it a war crime because there's no war in which the crime was committed. It's just plain state sponsored murder.
When Mohammed bin Salman ordered the death of Jamal Khashoggi, I didn't think of that as a war crime, either. Just a simple case of state sponsored murder.
You don't need an official war to commit war crimes. The US hasn't declared war since WWII, but I don't think anyone would say the My Lai massacre wasn't a war crime.
For a politician to openly say he doesn't give a shit is a very dangerous sign.
An elected official speaking like this to the public means they’ve completely lost their fear of repercussions. They’ve lost their fear of public backlash, of public perception. They’ve lost their fear of being voted out.
It means that in his mind there’s nothing to fear. He thinks he’s untouchable. He’s above you and everything you think and do. He’s your ruler and you’re his subject.
It means he's no longer afraid of you having a democracy.

I keep saying this and people don’t want to listen. These idiots believe in the rapture, and they think all these things happening are the prelude to that.
I am not kidding, they’re serious about this. Who cares what real world events are happening, they’re sure the Israel situation is happening because Jesus is going to come back any day, and they’re happy to kill us all because it’s worth it.
I hate so much that the most idiotic among us have any power whatsoever.
I sometimes dream about a system in which everyone still gets to vote, but depending on how you score on a test that tests for both knowledge, empathy and intelligence, your vote is counted higher, while those that score lower have theirs weighted less. Politicians are tested as well, and if it is evident that they have too many traits of sociopaths, they are disqualified.
Eh. We don’t need to restrict people’s voting, we just need to start valuing empathy as a society. It’s really both that simple and impossible.

These Nazis need to learn the meaning of due process, like those other Nazis. Enjoy your time of freedom couch fucker. No couches in prison.
It's very shortsighted for leaders to be pro anything that doesn't have due process.
If this regime doesn't keep power forever the next regime can just disappear him and his family and just paste his response saying he doesn't give a shit about due process when someone asks what happened to them.

Well I don't give a shit if he gets Luigi'd
I never did, even before he jumped on the coattails of the obese orange paedo.
On the positive side, his appearance and meandering uselessness did give us quite a few memes and laughs on the way.
Not that it would justify it but is there any evidence whatsoever that these people were cartel members?
The world will likely never know for a few years. Just like those innocent North Korean fishermen wiped off the face of this planet because they used flashlights to see.

Nothing new for the conservatives; this is just another one of their public figures now saying what they have been saying for decade upon decade behind closed doors.
This is exactly what the conservative movement is about. Rules? Those don't apply to US!
Trump is going to die of natural causes. I feel like this guy might have a future with a noose

I don't give a shit if Vance catches a stray
cat. Sorry, posted before I finished the sentence. Definitely meant a stray cat.

Vance would give a shit, when he is escorted to hang out at a gas station.
I think it is pretty clear he has no power, and is not actually involved in "doing" anything. He is just the mannequin saying whatever it is they want him to say.
I also don't give a shit what people think.
It is a war crime. Nothing to debate about
Cool, our employee doesn’t care how we feel.
Fire him. Out of a cannon. Towards a sewage pit.
What a polite couchfucking hillbilly.
So... If a civil war breaks out can we drop mustard and sarin gas on this fuckwads?
I don't give a shit.
Karma comes for people like him.
No it doesn’t.
When the next political party takes over the US there will be a “it’s time to move on” and let all these criminals get away with everything.

impeach them all
Americans talk like they didn't create the opioid crisis in the first place, profit from it, disavow it and in the process generate a mountain of homelessness. The idea that foreign gangs are arriving on their shores and corrupting the good and honest white folk of America is truly hilarious. Americans love drugs and their society is the perfect shithole to sell painkillers.

Can’t unfuck that couch Vance. We don’t give a shit what you think about it.
After what Russia's done in the last 10 years without any real consequences, nobody gives a shit anymore.

At least he is a honest scum. The united snakes never cared about war crimes and terrorism they caused
