We're lucky Venezuela hasn't attacked us back yet.
Imagine the US instead pulling the ship over and shooting every person, regardless of age or guilt, in the head—and then leaving. This is no different.
Do you also assume all black SUVs with tinted windows are drug smugglers? Because it's the same level of evidence. ie: it isn't.
Do you actually think this is a possibility? How do you see that playing out?
I imagine sooner or later, they will stop our black ops boats from shooting people.
The speed boats hauling ass in international waters are known smugglers on known routes using customized craft only drug smugglers use.
Policy of vaporizing these boats with weapons is both a) fairly effortless target practice for our military and b) puts major financial strain on that drug cartel operation.
Even if what they say is true, destroying boats with people on them without proof is wild.
