We will see. I don't have any faith in a communist government to truthfully and accurately report on anything

I'd like to show you the American government and media reporting for a moment. Prepare for disappointment.

To be fair I don't disagree. Critical thinking and skepticism is neccesary at all times

If it went down as described then its a case of FAFO.

If these guys are former Cuban nationals, now wanted as terrorists, who later became US citizens that came back to Cuba in a time of national distress hoping to foment rebellion... Holy shit... my dad was in the Navy during the Bay of Pigs incident. It will actually be hillarious to get his thoughts.

An unprecedented armada is on its way to Cuba.

On its way to Bailar El Mambo

I'll guess he has to say that but I find it partly ironic based on US navy sinking and killing drug runners.
Not a single one of the drug runners has opened fire on USN

"Florida's attorney general has launched an investigation into the shooting death of four people on a U.S. motorboat by the Cuban Coast Guard, Florida's attorney general said on Facebook.

"The Cuban government cannot be trusted, and we will do everything in our power to hold these communists accountable," James Uthmeier wrote, according to Reuters.

Republican Congressman Carlos Gimenez of Florida is calling for a federal investigation into what he calls an execution of four people. According to the Cuban Coast Guard, the people on the boat opened fire on them as they approached, AFP reports."

I am sorry but if you open fire on a coastguard vessel on their territory and manage to injure one of them..
Thats a FAFO out and find out.
Its self defense imo and Florida man is gonna Florida man.

Marco Rubio addresses Cuba's statement that it killed 4 on Florida-registered boat​

Cuban authorities said Wednesday the country's coast guard killed four people on a speedboat that was registered in Florida. The people on the boat first fired at Cuban border guard troops when they tried to approach the boat for identification, Cuba's interior ministry said.

Zero trust in the word of a Communist government but, if it happened as its said to have happened, Cuba did fuck all wrong here. FAFO.

So a new pigbay with 10 people?
They seem awful optimistic, but kudos for trying and living out your dream and congrats on the FAFO prize


"Cuba’s interior ministry said the group was comprised of anti-government Cubans, some of whom were previously wanted for plotting attacks. They came from the US dressed in camouflage and armed with assault rifles, handguns, homemade explosives, ballistic vests and telescopic sights, it said"

Cuba said it had identified the six detainees from the boat, two of whom, Amijail Sanchez Gonzalez and Leordan Enrique Cruz Gomez, it claimed were previously wanted in Cuba on suspicion of planning terrorist acts.

The other four were identified as Conrado Galindo Sariol, Jose Manuel Rodriguez Castello, Cristian Ernesto Acosta Guevara and Roberto Azcorra Consuegra.

In addition, Cuba said it detained another Cuban man in Cuban territory, Duniel Hernandez Santos, who it claimed had come from the US to the island in order to receive the infiltrators.

Cuba says it killed heavily armed exiles who attacked from US-registered speedboat

Rare clash off island’s coast took place amid US oil embargo and heightened tensions between two countries

Maybe he should pull his career fleets out of Asia to Cuba instead

Seems that even Cuban immigrants aren't immune from Florida Man syndrome.

Did not have "viva la revolution" on my list of possibilities.

Just realized 10 total people on board the speedboat.

Unlikely smugglers.... drunk and partying morons more likely.

Drunk and partying morons somehow navigated 100 miles to Cuba?
