Maybe we should stop killing each other instead of banning drones.
Next thing will be assassinating people with their own phone by causing it to blow up next to their head.
The tool isn't the problem, the problem is that "we" still think killing each other is some sort of solution.

Wishful thinking. Always have, always will. War is even “legal”, think about that, no repercussions for NATO countries.

I don't know if this was an intentional reference or not, but that has definitely already been done (with a rigged phone). Plus the widespread use of phone position data for targeting.

The problem is that violence works against everything except more violence.
Even then, violence works in that it decides a winner - one way or another.
It’s not like Japan or Germany were going to wave a white flag just because someone finally convinced them they were wrong.
Okay and how do we stop killing each other?
It's simple, you stop first /s
Ah, the "stop resisting" approach.
Ban anyone over the age of 60 from politics. It’s all senile old men trying to kill each other with younger people.
Additionally ban all males from positions of power
