This is an easy answer: no drones over US soil. And for the over 4700 people killed by US drones around the world according to Sen. Lindsey Graham, again Hell No. Rationalizing the murder of foreign nationals as collateral damage in order to provide national security is not anything close to our founding or Christian principles.
For those who want to complain about keyboard warriors, go ahead. But your opinion does not justify murder: there or here.

Rand Paul: White House should pledge no drone strikes on American soil
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) said Friday that he is demanding the White House answer “serious constitutional questions” about whether the administration can order a drone strike on American soil.
“We’re talking about someone eating at a cafe in Boston, or New York, and a Hellfire missile comes raining in on them,” Paul said during an appearance on Fox News. “There should be an easy answer from the administration on this. They should say, ‘Absolutely no, we will not kill Americans in America without an accusation, a trial and a jury.’ ”
The Kentucky senator said he had sent a letter to John Brennan, Obama’s nominee to head the CIA, but had not yet received a response.
