    Obama did an extrajudicial killing by drone of Anwar al-Awlaki, a US citizen who was (allegedly) an Islamist stochastic terrorist. Obama also murdered his 16 year old son as collateral damage in the assassination of al-Awlaki by drone. Seems to me there’s laws on the books banning stochastic terrorism if you’re a Muslim. Also if you’re black, see the MOVE bombing and Fred Hampton.

    Stochastic terrorism is only legal if you’re a white supremacist or a neo-Nazi.

      Well, extrajudicial would imply not legal. What you’re really pointing to is that when white supremacists are involved, somehow the government suddenly cares about due process and civil rights.
