It's obviously wrong to break into someone's home, but if a guy shoots a few people, then goes home, the police are justified in breaking in if he won’t voluntarily go outside and surrender.

It’s obviously wrong to break into a sovereign country and capture its leader, but if that leader has done something to warrant it, has been asked to surrender himself and refuses, it would be justified.

Did Maduro’s behavior justify this? I don’t know. Government allegations are not proven facts. So we’ll see (or we may not see.)

But that the US went in and arrested him isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It might be, and it might not.

What would be a bad thing unequivocally is if the US invaded Venezuela and killed a million people because it wanted to get Maduro. That would be very bad.

Kind of like what the FBI did in Waco, Texas when they wanted to get David Koresh.
