Move 6 adult men inside the trolley

Now I get 6 confirmed kills on terrorists as well

6 adult men

Feeling merciful today?

If I kill less people per missile that means I need to buy more missiles (I'm holding 64k in Raytheon stock)

*Military-age

You say there's no problem, I say the problem is that a trolley is getting in the way of American interests by not being drone striked.

It actively hinders US interest of car manufacturers. This is treason.

One of my favorite facts is that Judge Doom's plot in Who Framed Roger Rabbit was based on a true story.

Well, maybe one of my least favorite.

And by American interests we mean the interests of the arms manufacturer that made the drone

I imagine there’s some semi-innocuous sounding KPI named like minimum ordnance delivery that was agreed upon with an arms manufacturer to guarantee inventory turnover thereby guarantee profits

Isn’t that why so many municipal police departments end up with a fuckton of equipment made for war zones? It’s the military offloading surpluses it doesn’t need, and city governments are always willing to throw down big on their police budgets.

It's unfair America gets to drone strike things to protect their interests and I don't get to do that.

I've had countless times in my life that a simple General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper drone armed with up to 8 AGM-114 Hellfire missiles would have solved all of my problems. Is the second amendment dead? Why can't I protect my interests?

Only if the trolley is filled with children
