Obama's newest "subtlety " - Civilian Drones

An idea so bad it must be destroyed in the hanger

“ WASHINGTON (AP) - Unmanned aircraft have proved their usefulness and reliability in the war zones of Afghanistan and Iraq. Now the pressure's on to allow them in the skies over the United States. ”

I began marking-up this post after reading just the first ¶ of FAA under pressure to open US skies to drones.  "Now the pressure's on ..." is code for "this is a trial balloon from Obamunist central ."  Paragraph #6 contains the the next slice of meat. “ There is a tremendous pressure and need to fly unmanned aircraft in (civilian) airspace," Hank Krakowski, FAA's head of air traffic operations, told European aviation officials recently. "We are having constant conversations and discussions, particularly with the Department of Defense and the Department of Homeland Security, to figure out how we can do this safely with all these different sizes of vehicles. ” I don't have to spell out the implications for y'all; but there are plenty of un-thinkers out there who will scratch their collective asses and say, "sounds good to me."  Obamunists are shrewdly packaging this to appeal to cash strapped state governments; i.e., a new revenue [tax] source.  However, what's the different here from using the United States military as a domestic law enforcer?   It fits neatly into Obama's "civilian national security force" gambit.  "Piloting"  the drones will give the Obama Youth something constructive to do, too.   I hope there's a huge stink over this, beginning now. A good spot here to reintroduce this thought.  If the Second Amendment was formulated  to give us citizenry the means to defend against excesses by our own government, as it certainly was, this question needs answering.  Oughtn't we have access to the same weapons a rogue government can use to repel us?  I'm just saying.
