As far as our government admits, we only hit our targets 3% of the time, the other 97% killing innocent people. These numbers seem to indicate that these strikes are not the "surgically accurate procedures" that Obama claims that they are. It feels like no matter which party holds the office, all that matters to them and the American people is that American innocents are not wrongfully murdered by these kinds of attacks. After all, its not like the U.S.'s own constitution says that "all men are created equal".
Pardon my sarcasm, but I find it kind of unsettling when I hear people decry injustice domestically while ignoring it abroad. A human life in Iraq is worth no less than one in the states, which is why I found it funny that Obama supposedly shed tears at the news of the Sandy hook shootings while he authorizes far greater massacres on a near monthly basis in Pakistan. Hypocracy without equal, I think.
I am a little more pragmatic. If we have them, they are gonna get used on somebody and better them than us. I don't really condone how they seem to being used, but I am not going to condemn them on limited info either.
