Drone warfare: politically expedient and disturbingly inaccurate

http://www.indyweek.com/

Roughly 50 deadly strikes using drones occurred during George W. Bush's eight years in office. By contrast, in the three-plus years of the Obama presidency, there have been close to 300, and those strikes have killed as many as 3,000 people.

This is why I think the governments liberalization of firearm laws has occurred. The presense and use of drones in U.S. airspace is drastically under reported. If TSHTF our rifles and pistols will be of little value against night time flying drones bearing precision strike capable missiles.
