Biden: Civilian drone deaths totally worth it

Filed · 1540

America, it's come to my attention that there has been a fair amount of ill-will toward our administration for the dramatic increase in drone strikes abroad and the possibility of using said strikes on United States soil. I know you may not want to hear this from me, but the fact is the government needs to protect you from terror, and we've found that the most effective way to do that is by terrorizing others with the cold fear of death from above.
