    Why?? Drones save lives! Can you imagine if we had to physically go in and take out Al Alwaki?

    Who would Jesus “take out”? Didn’t he say something about “love your enemy”?

    Sheila, I didn’t hate the Vietcong, but we had to kill them or we’d be dead ourselves. I believe you have a different definition of ‘love’ than most people, or have never had to defend your own life.

      Patrick, I think we are worlds apart .I don’t think anything I could say would change your mind; or that you could change mine.It’s tempting to try but then I fear I would just solidify your position.
      Let us pray for one another and this world that we find a way to peace without killing one another on the way.

    End the drones ! But do not take the weapons away from the citizen – that he or she may need one day !
