Lew and David:  As these drone weapons have been defended on the grounds that they can pin-point targets – thus reducing what the war-lovers like to call “collateral damage” – we are led to the inescapable conclusion that the United States has specifically targeted these 120+ children in Pakistan and Yemen.  (I do wonder what vicious, terrorist acts the two one-year olds had engaged in to warrant this response.)  But, not to worry.  All of the reich-thinking people in the media, politics, academia, and statist “think”-tanks who have been yapping for more control – or outright illegalization – of guns in private hands will, I am certain, show their consistency to principle by proposing to disarm the state!
