Using drones in smuggling operations is another thing to consider. Drones are going to make it a lot harder for Trump to shut down cartel smuggling across the border like he promised
Just Uber underground drones to fly over that boarder wall. All those human van traffickers will be screwed like taxi companies and Block Busters.
I met the Fan Man skiing in the Valdez backcountry. I was skiing with a local, otherwise I'd have no idea who he was. We ran into him multiple times one spring. Quiet guy. His friend said he flew into that fight to protest violence but as we all saw, he got the shit beat out of him for doing it. He hung himself a year or two later after I met him, in the backcountry, and wasn't found for six months.
There's a bunch of nervous Nellie's cowering in fear over mis-identified airplanes and the neighbor kid's 5 pound drone. For everyone in a panic about the coming drone invasion, the US can handle any real threats that may arise.. Same as summit said, but maybe I wasn't shorter/clearer. Sorry.
On the off-chance this is an alien invasion, the US is best equipped to handle that also, but will most likely be crushed like a bug on a windshield. No drama. Neither the aliens nor us will know anything happened.
He probably died still kicking himself for forgetting about the ropes around the ring when he was doing his calculations beforehand.
Maybe he should have had a sign or banner regarding his message to the people.
Cartels have already been using drones for years. It's just not that prevalent because it's not an efficient system for transport. Most of their drug smuggling is done through official border crossings. They know that customs can't catch all of their loads, there's just too much traffic. The loads that are intercepted is just the cost of doing business.
