DRONES, DRONES, WHO'S GOT THE DRONES

IS THERE A DRONE IN YOUR LIFE?  You bet there is. In fact there are approximately 30,000 in the United States right now.

STEAMROLLER ALERT -- Big News -- A memo leaked from the DOJ recently made it perfectly clear that Barack Obama and his Big Drone Eric Holder thinks that the government-sanctioned killing of American citizens without warrant, without any defense attorney, without any evidence presented in any court is now "legal" -- and that does include the use of drones to do so. Already been done overseas, taking out alleged terrorists who held American citizenship, but how about the use of drones in the skies of the United States of America? Let's check out a few facts about the "military drone" and its use, now being condoned for domestic use against taxpaying citizens of the USA:

Surveillance drones or unmanned aerial systems (UAS's) raise significant issues for privacy and civil liberties. Drones are capable of advanced surveillance, and drones already in use by law enforcement can carry various types of equipment including live-feed video cameras, infrared, heat sensing, radar and phone tapping capabilities. Let's not forget stinger missiles and other weaponry we haven't heard of. How about Gatling guns, you remember those little buggers from Viet Nam. Maybe a sniper rifle with a sophisticated aiming system. Remember Ruby Ridge and Waco? Do you think the government would have used them then? Don't you doubt it for one minute.

Some drone models can stay in air for hours or days at a time, and their high-tech cameras can scan entire cities, or read a milk carton from 60,000 feet. They can also carry wifi crackers and fake cell phone towers that can determine your location or intercept your texts and phone calls. Drone manufacturers even admit they are made to carry "less lethal" weapons such as tasers or rubber bullets.

Thanks to a provision in the FAA Modernization and Reform Act of 2012, the use of drones right here in the United States is about to explode over the next few years. The Act includes provisions to make the licensing process easier and quicker for law enforcement, and by 2015, commercial entities will also be able to apply for drone authorization. How about your employer watching you from a drone? Possible.

Here is the list pulled from the depths of official FAA records, thanks to the Freedom of Information Act. This is a long list is of those already authorized to operate drones in the United States of America. Guess we'd all better be careful now. BIG BROTHER IS ALREADY HERE, watching us, whether we like it or not. Approved by Big Government and considered legal by our current White House Administration.
