"You don't want to see drones operating in foreign nations? Use your energy helping NGO and the local govt overcome corruption, ignorance, and backbone shattering poverty. Give no space for terrorists to operate in." Ah yes, this is the shit I just love about these arguments. Stop complaining about these things that kill thousands of innocent people. Your only appropriate action, according to some guy on the internet, is this utterly insane task he has made up. You are allowed to do that, but you're not allowed to object to drones killing people... How? How does your brain get to this point? I'm just sitting here floored that I live in a country where a non-zero amount of people feel the way you do.

>How? How does your brain get to this point? I'm just sitting here floored that I live in a country where a non-zero amount of people feel the way you do. If you are really are floored by this, you have a very weak sense of perspective. These conclusions are all very easy to get to if you follow this notion that members of terrorist organizations must be killed. If you set that as an unmovable goal, you will very quickly end up at these types of conclusions. Try to gain some perspective. Just throwing a fit of incredulity doesn't help any arguments because the other side usually feels the same way about you.

  "Just throwing a fit of incredulity doesn't help any arguments because the other side usually feels the same way about you." Just as this massive exaggeration makes your point similarly difficult to take seriously. But you seem to value snark to strangers over actually relaying any sort of useful information so I'll leave you to that. Cheers. edit: oh hey, what a shocker, a quick look at the first page of your posting history reveals literally no actual contributions and a bunch of snarky one liners. Give this guy a round of applause for these rock bottom contributions everyone! Bravo!
