I'm with Paul R and R Paul on this. Like Paul R, when I read Sen. Paul's statement, my regret was that he limits his concern to US citizens on US soil. We should be concerned about these atrocities wherever they occur. This, and his expansion of the security state and executive power, and his refusal to prosecute torturers (but his willingness to prosecute those who expose it) led me to vote for Jill Stein in the last election. That was the first time since 1980, when I could first vote, that I didn't vote for the Democratic Party candidate. And I'm not coming back while the Democrats embrace and take Bush-Cheney policies to heart.<br><br>Sunil<br><br><div><div id="SkyDrivePlaceholder"></div><hr id="stopSpelling">Date: Wed, 6 Mar 2013 18:43:14 -0800<br>From: <a href="mailto:godshatter@yahoo.com">godshatter@yahoo.com</a><br>To: <a href="mailto:donaldrose@cpcinternet.com">donaldrose@cpcinternet.com</a><br>CC: <a href="mailto:Vision2020@moscow.com">Vision2020@moscow.com</a><br>Subject: Re: [Vision2020] Rand Paul<br><br>

"Showboating", huh? Whatever.<br>
<br>
The vast amount of drone strikes overseas have either been against
people on their kill list going about their day, not currently
involved in a violent attack, or they have been against people
they can't identify but that they are reasonably sure are
terrorists because of their associations. Again, not taking them
out while they are actively engaged in combat, just assassinating
them wherever they happen to find them, doing whatever they happen
to be doing at that moment. Doing the dishes, blam, dead, along
with who knows how many people nearby. No due process, no vetting
of evidence, no jury of their peers, no idea even what criteria
our President uses to determine who gets to die that day.<br>
<br>
Nobody I've seen is saying that we can't use drones, even on
American soil, against people actively involved in combat. The
problem is that that isn't what they are being used for.<br>
<br>
If you want to wish this away as some kind of stunt because he's a
Paul or because he's a Republican or because you don't like his
haircut, then you're part of the problem. Our President is out of
control with these assassinations, and our police departments are
out of control in their militarization. Drop the damned Us vs.
Them crap, please.<br>

Where does shooting someone in self-defense, or those
