You know. I honestly would be surprised if the US government even had 30,000 drones to put in the air.

I believe this is the part the nutjob is referring to

It establishes new FAA regulations for the use of unmanned aircraft in US airspace. All this means is that with evolving technology, some people are trying to take pilots out of planes and stick them behind computers with joysticks. As a pilot(in training), and as a strong "anti-robot" person, I am doubly against this. Even so, it has nothing to do with spy drones because all military planes(manned or otherwise) are not subject to FAA regulations in any way.

Why are you anti-robot?

THis article has a list of agencies that have requested clearance from the FAA to use drones.
Including Nicholls State Univ. down in Thibodaux.

So they Subpoena the private sector, and swear out warrants on the same. The private sector does the leg work. Plausible deniability.
