• CIVILIAN DEATHS
Drone strikes not only kill soldiers, they also routinely kill civilians.

• MORAL HAZARD
Drone killings can be used to kill anyone, anytime, for any reason. There is no legal or moral oversight as to who is killed and why.
“The Executive Branch makes a claim that it has the right to kill anyone, anywhere on Earth, at any time, for secret reasons based on secret evidence in a secret process undertaken by unidentified officials.”
—Rosa Brooks

• PSYCHOLOGICAL TORTURE
Drones instill fear in common people. Imagine if Chinese drones constantly flew the skies in America, ready to kill anyone on the spot.
