I can't keep up with all the daily drama anymore.
I can no longer post from work which is when most of the theatrics take place.
Pretty slow on nights and weekends.
Thanks for keeping me abreast on all the histrionics that I am missing out on.
I don't think drones are bad in public areas, but not near private homes. If I see a government drone flying by my house, I'm doimg all i legally can do to knock it out of the sky.

They read and record your license plate , so the Police can basically track your cars movement throughout the City if they need to.
I read a great article months ago about drone/plane surveillance methods that were really perfected in the middle east.
There is technology available that essentially takes many thousands of photos a minute of a particular area. Say, a murder happens at 555 Main Street, this technology allows police to zoom into that location and see people and cars that have come and gone from that location.
Combined with the license plate cameras you mention, they can narrow down suspects in a matter of minutes.
The ***** that Snowden made public is only the tip of the iceberg. As an aside, the Rogan podcast with Snowden a week or two ago is worth watching on youtube
A total police state. Nothing like giving up one's liberty for supposed security.
DC is a symptom, not the cause. The cause is basic voter stupidity and economic ignorance.

Your front porch is public property. Why do you think the police ask folks to step out of their house? Never leave your house when the police ask you to come out to talk. You are now on public property in the eyes of the law. No, I'm not talking barricading one's self inside while the SWAT team is outside. When I was in a Business Law II class we were asked how can a drunk driver be arrested after going home, eating some of his dinner then stepping out of his house onto his porch when asked to talk to the police.
He was obviously drunk when he walked into the Chinese restaurant to order food. People noticed him getting into his car to drive away, so they called the police. Police show up to his house and ask him to step outside to talk. He did and they arrested him for public intoxication and dui. He sued and lost. His porch is public property.
As for just in public areas, no thanks. It always spreads to the private areas. Always.

A neighbor of mine ( A HS Teacher) was driving home about 2am from the local Pub . In our Burbs during the Summer they put Cops on Bicycle Patrol during the evening and night in the neighborhoods.Â
He did a roll through at a 3 way stop about 3/4 mile from his house.Â
Cop on Bike sees him and chases him all the way to his house. He gets his car in the garage, door goes down he goes in and goes to bed. The Cop knocked on his door for over 15 minutes he ignored it.Â
Cop finally got on his Bike and rode away. I was sitting in my garage drinking beer and witnessed it. Next morning him and i laughed our asses off about it. He admitted to me he was trashed and no way he was answering the door he would have lost his job.

And if the city/state/feds view my porch as public property then they can use some of the OBSCENE property tax money we all pay to mow my friggin lawn while they're at it. I mean if the porch is public, wouldn't my lawn have to be as well? Â
The can kizz my arse. Thanks for the heads up on that. BTW, is that a universal legal view of one's front porch, or is that an east coast thing? Man, that is tough for me to come to grips with right there. I'm sure it's always been that way, but man... Â

That's a US thing.Â
Oh, would you like a VA employee to come over to mow your lawn? Be careful of what you wish for...
