And to think we were called paranoid before...

I dont think *before* is much of a reference point.

Tin foil up.

I hate to beat a dead horse, but I (along with a lot of other Libertarians) cringed when Bush oversaw the creation of the DHS 12 years ago....

I did some serious cringing when Bush announced it in his SotU speech in 2002. "Homeland Security" has such a lovely Orwellian ring to it.

There is no need for drones to be used over the US. Period.

I guess they started in Essex ....

Best tool I've seen used is a parachuting tank...

Bush was not a friend of Libertarians.

According to Jesse Jackson we should be able to take them down with our favorite .223

+1

Patriot Act, Iraq "War", and bailouts.

Agreed, search and rescue only! Should require a warrant signed by a judge to fly one

So ...drones... You have a couple of non-kinetic choices to f with them.
Jam their GPS
Pulse them and fry their electronics

Kinetic choices abound

Easier to get them taking off, landing or OTG....provided your wing shooting ain't up to snuff! ;-)

 

[Alea Jacta Est]

A reasonable expectation of privacy has been and is the standard...drones cross the line for me.

But does DHS know when I am legged?
