Just asking questions, eh?

You might be innocently asking, but be aware that what you did is a common rhetorical technique that right-wing propagandists use to stop people from caring about violence against the innocent.

If you had brought up the possibility that the police were, say, killing children for money with their drones, or their drones were being hacked by criminal gangs, or that US mercenary groups - like the one run by Erik Prince - are actually flying them, then you may not have mistakenly furthered the goals of empire.
