Not watching. That man is not credible.
But I'll ask you, why would they attack me specifically?

Groups Concerned Over Arming Of Domestic Drones
I don't know, you know you better than any of us.
Could you ever be involved in a protest? How about find yourself among an a large crowd that becomes unruly?
I hope they do a fly by on yoni's house just to mess with him..
Predator Drone Nation
Placed in the hands of evildoers, those weapons and powers could create a living nightmare; controlled by the best of people, they lead to measured, thoughtful, precise decisions in which bad things are (with rare and understandable exceptions) done only to truly terrible types. In the process, you simply couldn’t be better protected.
And in case you were wondering, there is no question who among us are the best, most lawful, moral, ethical, considerate and judicious people: the officials of our national security state. Trust them implicitly. They will never give you a bum steer.
You may be paying a fortune to maintain their world—the 30,000 people hired to listen in on conversations and other communications in this country, the 230,000 employees of the Department of Homeland Security, the 854,000 people with top-secret clearances, the 4.2 million with security clearances of one sort or another, the $2 billion, one-million-square-foot data center that the National Security Agency is constructing in Utah, the gigantic $1.8 billion headquarters the National Geospatial Intelligence Agency recently built for its 16,000 employees in the Washington area—but there’s a good reason. That’s what’s needed to make truly elevated, surgically precise decisions about life and death in the service of protecting American interests on this dangerous globe of ours.
And in case you wondered just how we know all this, we have it on the best authority: the people who are doing it—the only ones, given the obvious need for secrecy, capable of judging just how moral, elevated and remarkable their own work is. They deserve our congratulations, but if we’re too distracted to give it to them, they are quite capable of high-fiving themselves.

Local Governments Have the Power to Restrict Drone Surveillance in the US
A series of events in the last two weeks have set the stage for how surveillance drones will be operated by local law enforcement in the United States and how citizens can demand privacy protections as domestic use escalates.
As EFF has previously reported, Congress passed a bill in February mandating the FAA must open national airspace to drones, despite the extensive and unprecedented civil liberties dangers they pose to every American. The FAA, in new rules announced on Monday, made the authorization procedure easier, stating they have “streamlined the process” for “public agencies”—which includes local law enforcement—to legally operate drones in U.S. skies.
We know that dozens of law enforcement agencies already have drones, based on information from EFF’s Freedom of Information Act lawsuit over the FAA’s initial refusal to release the list of authorizations. And one of the biggest cities with a police department on the list was Seattle.
It turned out Seattle’s city council—which oversees the police department—was just as surprised as many citizens to see Seattle Police Department’s name on the list. The city council learned about the drones through a reporter asking questions related to EFF’s lawsuit, not through official channels. After front page stories in the Seattle Times and an official apology from the Seattle police department, Seattle is now the first city to consider privacy safeguards for drone use by law enforcement.

Doubtful, but one never knows.Can't think of one. Not one for crowds.How about find yourself among an a large crowd that becomes unruly?
Either way sounds like weapons could be used in either case without drones being involved. I'd be more concerned about the costs here.
A heck of a lot less than actual pilots and helicopters, which have been around for decades.
You sycophants who love the tyranny and like to make jokes are traitors to your nation and will be taken to task for high crimes after the 2nd revolution, God willing there is one
Well sure, but outside of a few pursuit situations, when is either really necessary?
I personally would love to see a drone airlifting Doug Christie to a baseball game.
"When the agency isn't being transparent about the state and local agencies they are working with, it's impossible to have an informed debate," Lynch said.
... not having an informed public is precisely the police state's objective.
