Drones

I'm a bit left of right --- and a long way from being a Romney fan.

My objection to Drones is two-part:
- I object to killing becoming a video game
- I also object to the fact these "tools" are being deployed domestically, as well.

I don't particularly care who's president. I object to the use of this technology. I didn't like it when Bush used it, either.

Were Mr. Romney to escalate their use (either abroad or at home), I'd be hissing a good bit.

I think it's criminal to isolate ourselves from the horrors of the violence we choose to engage in.

I'm with you BB just very sick of "okay for my guy but not your guy" tripe.

It is actually more personal than cruise missiles which we liked to use in Libya. Some GI is guiding in that drone. The cruise missile, you just punch in coordinates.

But good point about drones coming to the homefront. How soon before we see little drones the size of birds used to spy on Americans?
