A Pro-Life View on Drones

Jack Hunter is a great fighter for liberty and a great resource for those of us in the liberty movement. He regularly creates video opinion pieces which are thoughtfully crafted, backed with facts and realities that are unavoidable, and often challenge the status-quo conservative position on current events.

This video is perhaps his best.

One excerpt that I related to (out of the full text) was this bit about The Onion, one of my favorite websites:

Last year, the parody website The Onion ran the headline: “Could The Use Of Flying Death Robots Be Hurting America’s Reputation Worldwide?” while also asking in a correlating video “Should We Stop Using Robots That Randomly Kill Children?” The faux “news” panel in the video dispassionately debated whether or not killing kids with drones was wise U.S. policy. It was a funny video that emphasized the horrors of our nonchalant regard for the death of innocent children.

But this is exactly what Klein did. This is exact what President Obama does. When moderator Bob Schieffer asked both Mitt Romney and Obama about the use of drones during the last presidential debate, Romney confirmed that he would continue the program. Obama ignored the question. Many Americans, from government officials down to the average citizen, ignore the question. Many Americans are unaware that there is even a question—thanks to a liberal media that continues to kowtow for Obama and a rightwing media that still defends Bush’s legacy.
