Back to EpisodesAre Drug "Coke Boats" Legal to Blow Up? Wild Debate with Jus on Narco Subs & Vigilante Justice
Published 4 months, 3 weeks ago
Description
In this unfiltered podcast episode, me and Jus go DEEP into one of the craziest hypothetical questions out there: If you’re out on the open ocean and spot an obvious cartel “coke boat” or narco-sub loaded with drugs… is it actually legal to blow it up?
We break down:
- International maritime law & the high seas
- UNCLOS rules on piracy vs. drug trafficking
- Real cases of coast guards and navies sinking drug boats
- Could a private citizen legally do it? (Spoiler: it’s complicated)
- Vigilante justice, self-defense claims, and why the Coast Guard can get away with stuff you can’t
100% discussion and legal hypotheticals — no advocacy of illegal activity whatsoever. Just two guys trying to figure out where the line actually is when it comes to billion-dollar drug runners on the open water.
