What the hell kind of question asks “are you opposed to being KILLED by a___?” …um yes. I’m opposed to being killed by anything. I quite like being alive and would like to avoid being killed.
I’m not well versed on the use of drones, but that question needs major revising, or should simply be thrown out as it does not accurately assess ones stance on the use of drones.
