The Virginia governor's enthusiasm for drones has been met with
concern from legal experts to the average Twitter user, while others see a

success over battlefields in the Middle East where they have reduced budgets and
strengthened safety. His comments echo a national trend toward what the Pentagon
says will be a $7 billion industry by 2013.

ReplyDeleteI agree with the first two commentors. When you see them, shoot them out of the sky. I know of two people that have seen them here already. Very high up. Only identifiable by binoculars.
