No, let's not. I really don't want to live in a world where the bad guys have killer AI drones and we don't.

That presumes that “killer AI drones” are a valid way to accomplish some valid goal.
For example, I do in fact want to live in a world where only the bad guys have child soldiers, use human shields, deliberately target civilians, and abuse prisoners of war.
If the other guys have child soldiers, you don't need child soldiers of your own to defeat them.
If the other guys have an army of killer robots and you don't, you are going to die.
Do not succumb to "we have to win the race" reasoning and escalation, when the race is leading off a cliff. It is, in fact, possible to stop things via international cooperation. Treat it the way we do nuclear proliferation. (Efforts to stop nuclear proliferation have not been perfect, but they've been incredibly effective and made it much more difficult to make the problem worse than it already is.)

You should take a hard look at who really is the bad guy.
I suppose in the context of the article you're commenting on you're saying the bad people are the ones defending the women and children from being raped?
"The use of drones in these areas causes more collateral damage among the civilian population than it truly neutralizes gangs."
