Steve,The Drudge Report Headline “EXCLUSIVE: Justice Department memo reveals legal case for drone strikes on Americans,” is old news based on what I’ve been hearing from USAF pilots I know from one of the local bases.
It was explained to me that many of the pilots are seriously considering leaving their careers in the USAF due to the training they have been receiving in the last 4 years! They are in fact being trained to fire their weapons into anything from cities, homes, businesses, and even public demonstrations!!!
I should have told you about this 3 months ago when I heard about this but I figured something of this magnitude would be leaked out.
This headline on Drudge is just the tip of the iceberg and yet I see no outrage from the public or media? I’ve told this to some extreme liberals I know and it just did not register with them how significant this was: This news sent shivers down my spine, and the responses I’ve received from people is beyond explanation.
If this was G.W. Bush he would have been attacked, chained, and impeached within days! What’s going on Steve?

I would prefer the pilots remain active. When the day comes for them to fire on americans they can safely crash their plane or drone away from the AF base and the public. This would eliminate the possibility of that aircraft from being used against the public by another pilot who would fire on americans.
Or in best case turn them on the ones that gave the order to fire on citizens.
Our pilots should stay. when bad orders come disregard.
keep the plane, it belongs to the people of the us. And will be used for good………..
The public is constantly surfeited with exhortations to honor the veterans serving in unjustified, undeclared, unconstitutional wars. No wonder the suicide rate is so high.
Whether this story is true or not, the time is coming when the honorable thing to do will be to stand down and refuse illegal orders.
