Rand Paul's Terror-state libertarianism

GOP Tea Party Senator Rand Paul, who last month led a filibuster against the notion of using drones on American soil, suggested Monday night that we use drones on American soil.

I’ve never argued against any technology being used when you have an imminent threat, an active crime going on. If someone comes out of a liquor store with a weapon and fifty dollars in cash, I don’t care if a drone kills him or a policeman kills him…

If there’s a killer on the loose in a neighborhood, I’m not against drones being used to search them out, heat-seeking devices being used, I’m all for law enforcement.
