Dear Americans, you might be thinking that it’s fine for your government to murder people on nothing but ask accusation, without any proof, without any opportunity for the accused to defend themselves. After all, they’re only doing it to “bad people”.
But the question is, what happens when the government decides that you and the people you care about are “bad people”?
You can claim that you’re not, but it won’t matter, because due process has been thrown out the window. Your claims are irrelevant.
Due process exists for a reason, and it has to exist for the people you don’t like, or else it doesn’t exist for anyone. Selective due process isn’t due process.
