Before you go out of your way to try to kill someone you should be reasonably sure they intend to do harm. Shooting illegal immigrants that reprsent no danger excpet trying to find a job is not the same as killing someone plotting to do harm to American citizens. It just isnt.
Really? A big difference? How do you know the guys illegally entering your country in the back of a pickup truck aren't members of Al Quida? The difference, from my perspective, is that the drone attacks are happening in countries most Americans couldn't find on a map and are killing people most Americans identify as dangerous and not like them, even though some of them are actually American citizens. Bring the drone attacks closer to home and all hell would break loose.
Where there is no difference is in shooting indescriminately from the sky from a drone or from a helicopter - to suggest otherwise, is dishonest.
