- fit2rule 13y agoNo buts. Anyone who justifies any expenditure into technology-of-death over technology-of-life, is simply worshipping death. America would be far less violent if its people had to deal with its delivery on a more personal basis than the current technological means provide..
- wdewind 13y agoI have to be honest: I don't think you actually read the article. Here's another one to read too: http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2013-08/psychological-toll-drone-warfare http://www.popsci.com/technology/article/2013-08/psychologic... Drone pilots are dealing with the delivery on a more personal basis than much of the rest of the military, even arguably infantry soldiers. I absolutely do not worship death, and that's a pretty inflammatory thing to say. I also think your grouping of "technology of life" vs. "technology of death" is far to simple. For one thing we are currently communicating over a medium originally designed to monitor nuclear silos.
