I remember someone saying that most military tech ends up being used against the citizenry.  radar, tear gas?, acoustic weapons, etc...and now drones.

Pathetic and unacceptable.

Well, I could see private defense agencies using these as well. What worries me is the government using them, I suppose.

big media has completely ignored this.

 

And by the way, its no longer mainstream media....from here on out, its known as big media.  they are no longer mainstream.  they are just richer than everyone else.
