If youre doing anything that might be of interest to a drone than you probably have bigger concerns than the use of drones in the first place. I mean honestly - if they can find a missing kid, stop a terrorist attack, or prevent some other catastrophe than im all for it. I dont think they are looking to see who is lighting up a j in their car or something. Lol.
their primary mission may be valid, though that's debatable, but once the government collects and catalogs that data it is a near certainty it will be used for other purposes as well.

Drones to spy on us? Obama feels he has the right to use them on Amercans and anyone else around the world. Funny the left jumped up and down about things Bush did but the have been pretty quite about this.

Depends on who you're talking about. I've always been against it. Romney supports it too

Like what for example? Oh and dont worry about them seeing you answer that - they will never de-code our usernames. Lol
Seriously - im not a big fan of the govrrnment for alot of reasons, but other than their "primary mission" any other theories are a tad bit paranoid futuristic robots enslaving the human race for me. They can catalog whatever the hell they want. Im not hiding anything.
Edit: bottom line is that the "nothing to hide" article is based on the premise that the government is concerned with the everyday life of - well - me? Even if they did catch me whacking off to granny porn, what the hell are they going to do put a snapshot of it up in times square? Let em. Lol. The whole big brother thing is so 1984.

Yes, unauthorized surveillance where you do not know your being watched. This is not security camera where you know your possibily being monitored. Its spying. Its bullshit...its funny that the ACLU AND the Tea Party are on the same side of the issue on this.

Your point of Obama and killing terriots who are American outside the country have nothing to do with this issue. But keep the blinders on.

Yeah, gop or dems won't change that anytime soon. It's going to be the people or a third party. So basically I think it's never going to change

I'm not blind to this I was just pointing out that Obama is using them in more then one way which is probably boarder line illegal.

Sure it is. But Romney and the gop still support drone strikes and surveillance. Just a fact. You're always so eager to try to bash Democrats without context. Sorry if it stings too much

Please give me an example of "screwing people". Im trying to understand how or why i should feel that way because of this. Simply that they are spying on me - comes across as nothing short of paranoia. Give me an example of how these drones could infringe on my rights? I find it very hard to believe that the government just wants to make sure i didnt call out of work to drink beers in my backyard. Alot of you seem much more educated on the issue, so im not trying to argue just to argue. Im honestly curious as to why this is a problem in your eyes.
