I am a FIRM believer in any automated kill without a human pulling the trigger is a war crime
Yes mines yes uavs yes yes yes
It is a crime against humanity
Stop
What if the human is pulling the trigger to "paint the target" and tag it for hunt and destroy then the drone goes and kills it? Because that's how lots of missles already work. So where's the line?
If it is a bad kill, is there a person who will go to jail or be executed for it?
Like if someone made a biological weapon that wipes out a continent
Will someone go to prison?
It's no difference
