Police drones coming to Seattle

After review, McGinn shuts down the program and sends them back. It was apparently something the police department just did without checking with anyone.

Dang, I was hoping to Secret Santa you some new threads, Jason McCullough.

On a total tangent, but did you know that polar bears don't show up on thermal imaging? http://coe.berkeley.edu/engnews/spring03/3S/polarbear.html

The funny thing about the drone proof clothing is that it doesn't work unless everyone wears it. "Wow, we can't tell who that person is? Guess he's a terrorist! *fire*"

That's the standard protocol for the LAPD.

Late to the party, but I'm for it, if we put them in the right hands:

In some ways it's too bad, I think drones might be pretty handy for search and rescue. But yeah, I can see all sorts of slippery slope scariness with drones.

How come the drone threads haven't been merged yet?

Nothing will be done about drones on US soil, and there won't be any public outcry unless there's some kind of accident and they take out Honey boo boo or another prominent member of society.

One is so that you can fret about the cool youtubes and stupid police experiments, and the other is so you can discuss the legal and historical context of drones. If anything, this one just needs to be moved to santorum so it can become all it should be.
