    It is a sign of just how fast the police state is advancing that drones in American skies have gone from conspiracy theory to admitted fact in about a year.

    In a precedent-setting event, local law enforcement in North Dakota nabbed three suspected armed men with the help of a Predator B unmanned drone. It was only after the drone confirmed that the men were unarmed that police moved in to make the arrest.

    It has now become clear that, as we have written and warned about for the past year, the drones that were supposedly commissioned strictly as tools for border control will now patrol inland for suspected criminals on American soil, heralding a new level of police state oppression.

    In April I wrote about the future expansion of unmanned drones over America based on the admissions made by two-star General, John Priddy, from the U.S. National Air Security Operations Center, evidenced in the video below, that the continued expansion of predator drone surveillance was a stated goal for the coming years.

    Oh, the hyperbole!

    I take it the people who's paranoia is aroused by the use of unmanned drones would prefer the police use manned helicopters and planes to conduct aerial surveillance? :lol:

    Drones over U.S. get OK by Congress
    Tuesday, February 7, 2012 - Look! Up in the sky! Is it a bird? Is it a plane? It’s … a drone, and it’s watching you. That’s what privacy advocates fear from a bill Congress passed this week to make it easier for the government to fly unmanned spy planes in U.S. airspace.

    Stealth Hoodie Hides Wearer From Drones
    Jan 18, 2013 - Surveillance cameras are ubiquitous, especially in the U.K.. and in the United States, Congress has already approved the use of drones for domestic surveillance. Then there’s the “Stingray” tool used by the FBI to track cell phones. It’s enough to make even those who’ve gotten nothing hide feel nervous.

    Of course, most of the illegal guns in Mexico are smuggled in from us.. It's sick. Our drug pushers and users who fuel those wars are sick, and our gun-happy system that has guns floating around everywhere, including in criminal hands, is sick.

    If that conflict reaches our soil, well.. We will be reaping what we've sown.

    According to the theory of evolution we should soon see babies with protective skin patterns that will help them evade detection.

    But if the next President kills a terrorist on American soil with a drone - will he be castigated for it??...
    :confusion:
    Obama Won't Use Drones to Kill Americans in America
    March 7, 2013 – A day after Sen. Rand Paul’s 12-hour filibuster, the White House Press Secretary Jay Carney asserted “The president has not and would not use drone strikes against American citizens on American soil,” and added, “whether the lethal force in question is a drone strike or a gun shot, the law and the Constitution apply in the same way.”

    yes,only a fool wouldnt. I have seen black helicopters spy in citizens just for protesting,a thing that we are allowed to do according to the constitution which of course the majority of congress and Obama doesnt believe in.

    Not sure how that went down, but Obama is an idiot, so it's entirely possible.

    You would kniow this how? Are you them?
    If you do not think rights can be violated with the tools that have been availabe you are very uninformed. Watching protest is not against the law or the Constitution, just so ya know.
    Once again you have lost no rights.

    No I would like Obama to stop giving Mexican drug lords weapons then tell me we need drones to protect our borders from these arm criminals. Who gave them the arms in the first place?

    How about Obama stop killing innocent people in other countries making more terrorist. When Obama kills babies their mother and father might not care much for America. Then Obama is going to tell me that he needs to spy on my phones and computers from the people that he killed their babies. Screw him he killed these babies not me. He is the war criminal. Not me. Stay out of my porn history.

    I live the fact that the FBI is using drone in America with out any privacy guild lines. Lol. How about before you start a program that may violate people's privacy you put a guild line in place to protect our rights first. This just shows you that they don't give a damn about your rights.

    Frankly, yes! Drones represent a whole great technological leap in silent undetected surveillance and spying.
    http://www.aclu.org/blog/tag/domestic-drones

    Considering that we now know how the NSA can monitor your email and telephones, your reading habits and what you buy, is it "paranoid"
    to be wary of the growth of Big Brother or just a healthy distrust of a government that has proved it cannot be trusted?
    Frankly it's you people sleeping, that cannot or will not be woken up, that we need to worry about. Not the so called paranoids.
