There are a hundred good reasons to regulate drones, and this must be the worst.

The government has a shitload of them all ready to roll out. The NJ thing in 2024 was a test project, that was clearly homeland security fuckery given the US denied knowledge but also insisted they weren't a threat. SUV sized drones with flashing lights and whatever else.

We need to think about defenses against drones. Perhaps kamikazee drones, with thermite ramming heads even. It's an uphill battle but the sooner we think about it, the more we will be able to protect ourselves when the social order breaks down. Although I would advise biding your time until that happens and not giving yourselves away during the reign of terror that will precede the social collapse.

ICE Goons are starting to understand that their faces will be scanned and they will be prosecuted with extreme prejudice after the shitler regime ends, AND IT WILL. There are regretful NAZIs giving their first bonuses back (yes, before taxes) and QUITTING! DHS CAN'T KEEP OR GET NEW AGENTS and the ones that do stay now understand they are TRAPPED as that whole bonus structure falls apart with ANY perception of loss of loyalty or the need for disciplinary action within the agency.

They were always sacrificial pawns. The administration has been salivating over one of them getting killed so that they can invoke Artical 2 and call for martial law.

I've just stumbled upon the Gate Manga again; ignoring the pedo stuff, Zolzal and his Sweepers are pretty much Trump (but young) and ICE. Around chapter 70 to 85.

That's easy to say, but that information is not super easy to come by, in my experience. Someone has to build that shit, even if it is "simple." It's still expensive and there's a huge learning curve most of us haven't even touched.

But I agree with you.

Huh... Sounds like the National Socialist German Workers' Party Right before the Nuremberg trials.

Based on previous non GOP administrations I doubt that ICE or the current administration will see meaningful prosecution.

The system needs to break down completely so we can rebuild if we want something like that.

Ukraine has proven even consumer grade drones are super key in modern warfare. Therefore our government would really not like it's populace to have them.
