Ready. Set. PULL!
I have no problem if drones are used to find a missing child or adult, but I have a big problem if they are used to spy on people for using fertilizer in their garden, or what they do in their bedroom
Won't work, these things fly too high (invisible). We're not longer a free people.
Anybody have a plan?
Thousands of metallic balloons? I dont know, but if it comes down to it, some smart Freeper will find a way to take them out.

The problem is, and the Judge rightly points it out, these “policies” are sprung from the mind of the President, and not coming from Congress, where they should.
Here is the fundamental problem for all who vote and take it too lightly. If the President can order the military to spy on child molesters, kidnappers and other criminals, where is the line drawn? Can he later add to the list other undesirables, scofflaws and malcontents? Do these people realize, when they vote as if it’s American Idol, how much power over THEMSELVES they give him?
Congress is the problem here. It is abdication of their duty. We need to elect a Congress that is responsible and a true guardian of our liberties.
I’m afraid for us. I was an Oathtaker, and now I am an Oathkeeper of the US Constitution. Lately, however, I’ve been studying the words of the anti-Federalists and their fear of the power of the Presidency, I’m seeing, was well justified. For that matter, they also were fearful of a too powerful Congress. I’m not saying the Constituion is flawed, but too much power is in the hands of flawed men.
In your BEDROOM? How can one of these things see into a bedroom?
Already have helocopters flying over at regular intervals. Have sat on front porch and watched planes being refueled in mid-air just above tree lines....And then there was the night that an air”plane” without any sound shone a bright light into the house waking us all up. It too traveled just above the tree lines. If they want to know what we’re doing at my house chances are they already have the information.
By jamming the entire GPS band, which is fairly easy, you will force the bird to return to home, since the bird won’t know it’s location. And it doesn’t require very much RF energy to jam GPS, since the GPS signal is coming from a satellite.
We not only have drones... we have had them in our area for quite a while. Remember the Sniper killings in Maryland/D.C./Virginia? That is when I spotted our first drone. Since then, we see them on occasion. I once saw several together... somewhat like a squadron (three total). I assumed (and falsely so) that it was due to our neighborhood being so close to D.C. I should have known better....
Little hot to garden in....Infact I may want to stop running around in my back yard with just undies on (or at least wave at them....Grandma used to say: “If they haven’t seen it before the won’t know what it is, If they have it’s nothing new.”
Ever see a high-resolution oblique angle photograph?
Some of the "micro-drones" that researchers are working on are more like large insects than aircraft. Some are like your kid's mini radio-controlled helicopters. You could easily sidle-up to an upper floor window and peer in. I should say that when 'targeting' a specific US citizen or residence we are probably still looking at law enforcement having to get a warrant. But even that could slip over time.
Now this is from my Dad — Helicopters regularly flew low over their neighborhood going to the heliport on the roof of a close by hotel. Supposedly one of his heighbors was arrested for aiming his shovel at the helicopter as it flew over.
“In your BEDROOM? How can one of these things see into a bedroom?”
IR is a good possibility unless you’ve got good insulation.
About a week to ten days before someone in the world gets the Shhhhhhit bombed out of them we can hear cargo planes flying from midnight till dawn. Any one in the neighborhood COULD make it public knowledge and alert the world. (Crane navel depot is near. Had a friend write a message on one delivered to Sedam)
