(1,355 posts)There are 389,000 registered UAV's in the U.S. ( see attached link )
I will guess that's half as many as there really are. The repugs are
going to continuously create BS like "the drones" as long as the exist.
If the military felt threatened they would have shot'em down already.

(9,561 posts)that a drone manufacturer in NJ is running test due to a DOD contract. There are drone manufacturers in NJ with military contracts. If the military is saying that the drones are not a threat that tells me they know everything about them but don't want to divulge any info. No way in hell they wouldn't be all hands on deck if unknown drones were flying near bases, or large population centers for that matter.
It's what makes sense to me.

Taking video of Orion, and thinking it's drones hovering over his house, it's clear we have a dumbfuck issue in the USA.
I don't give a fuck about drones unless it's extraterrestrial interaction, until then WHO GIVES A FUCK!!!!!
Get a grip folks, our democracy, our country and our way of life is about to be turned upside down in just over a month.
Stop fighting with each other about why we didn't win, we "lost" because we have dumb mother fuckers in this country who rely on shit they see on social media, and not facts. Continuing to post about drones is a clear sign we here at DU are falling into the same distraction trap.
Stop feeding into the shit, focus on real. Fight for US and all those dumb assholes who vote against their own best interests.
Sorry to vent, but FUCK!!!
