From where do you get that impression? Can you give an example, (of someone getting decorated for flying drones)?
WTF?
I'm with WD, 100%. Human beings rise to meet challenges and they are not making people any differently now than they did 100 years ago. Every time there is a war or a natural disaster, certain people display unimaginable courage and selflessness and others loot Red Cross supplies. Same as in 1944.
Believing in BS serves no one.
