They've already shot 3 people. Imagine what they'd do with drones.
We need nationwide protest.
Well, bein' as how y'all live in no-gun zone Chicago y'all can't shoot 'em down like we'uns down here in the boonies can. So yellin' an' screamin' on the street is all that's left to ya.

And people walking by your house?
Or on a hillside with a view of your house?
I just don't understand this current obsession with drones. We've had satellites for many years that can read a license plate from more than 20,000 miles away.
He was not killed for being a traitor. He was killed for being an enemy combatant.
Semantics.
Killing an enemy combatant that is not actually fighting at the moment and happens to be American is still illegal.
Notice how they can kill American combatants and NOW the combat zone includes America AND there is not court to decide who is a legitimate target, just a pow wow between Obama and his friends.

Not even close to being semantics. It is a critical and determinative detail of law.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong, wrong.
Enemy combatants are fair game at all times unless and until they have been physically captured and siarmed. Their citizensdhip status makes exactly no difference.

How could anybody "notice" that when it is egregiously untrue?

Why are DRONES all of a sudden the big fear?
Drones are evil. Cameras on helicopters are ok, but cameras on droves are evil. Drones look bad, just like the AR-15 these people oppose.
