  • The vehicle is almost irrelevant. They can be box trucks, planes, cars, suicide vests, backpacks, parcels, any number of things, including drones. Any mobile form can be brought close to an intended target.

    Drones are more of an assassination weapon as far as FPV drones go. They can be built if you have the knowledge from available parts, but do require quite a bit of skill to fly. Their ability to only carry a small charge (yes, there are huge drones, buy flying one of those monsters around is a completely different animal) is probably only going to hurt a couple people or kill one person in particular.

    I don’t disagree that they can be used as weapons of terror, however I just don’t see FPV as weapons of mass terror.

    OTOH the large winged drones that can be launched from miles away that are essentially “cruise missile” drones could certainly be used as mass terror weapons, but those aren’t the kind used by regular people for fun or photography.

  • This is chauvinism, but not quite nationalism. The belief that you’re somehow better vs actively placing yourself first at the expense of others.

  • I’d bet local LEO are familiar with this guy.

  • Corporate will do anything but. Part time pay, no full time benefits, no pay raise, and now you need a second job.

  • Probably do the same thing most of the junk humans dump into the environment. Reduce average lifespan, cause diseases and reduced fertility.

  • Ah, great plan! When they return they can be disabled, traumatized men who are drunk dealing with PTSD.

  • Alabama was proof of how shitty things have to get before people start taking action.

  • He’s a toddler that can’t stay focused on anything long enough to give him credit for that level of thinking. Even his own advisers and staff have said as much when they can’t give him briefings more than a few minutes long or he gets bored, spends all his time posting online or watching TV. He’s not manufacturing anything, this is who he is. The press OTOH is perfectly happy to report on one stupidity and then abandon it for the rapidly arriving following ones.

  • Sharp, bitter, stomach pains.

  • Corporations already forgot about the dead CEO shortly after they replaced him and the new guy presided over stock value decreases and lowered forecasts. The only people that care now is the press looking to generate views with sensational news and district attorneys or AG’s trying to please their wealthy overlords for reelection.

  • Cities? Money. HOAs are designed to keep the poors out, and by poors they mean other colored people.

    What we’ve learned from FEMA’s response in the aftermath of Texas flooding

  • It does matter. It matters to those of us that care. It matters to know what side people are on.

  • The democrats are aware that their names are on the list and they’re the only ones that will be held accountable for it. The republicans will hold witch burnings while completely ignoring their own member’s names on the list.

  • Beat me to it. Thanks for posting it!

  • Trump Doesn't Want to Release Epstein Files Because (rich) People's Lives Will Be 'Destroyed,' inconvenienced with having to spend money on lawyers when a few of their wives divorce them Ex-Fox Host Says

    Real “Brock Turner-ism” happening here. Be sad that some rich people might get in trouble.

  • 4 with ambivalence. One parent was no good. The other was good but didn’t defend us much.
