Is There A Drone In Your Neighborhood?
« on: April 24, 2012, 10:05:22 AM »
From the UK - Daily Mail.   Sad that you have to learn of things your government is doing from the foreign press.  FOIA reveals 63 launch sites within the continental United States.

I sure could use some good news. This story didn't seem to state that they were being actively used to watch us, but it surely is happening in some places.

The cameras on every light pole are frustrating enough... How can we get rid of those, btw?

NENick,
Excerpt RE: actively used to watch us...

JewishWorldReview.com | (USNWR) The tiny town of Lakota, N.D., is quickly becoming a key testing ground for the legality of the use of unmanned drones by law enforcement after one of its residents became the first American citizen to be arrested with the help of a Predator surveillance drone.

I sure hope one doesn't fly over when I'm hunting pheasants.
